They're based here in San Antonio and cater the wannabe rancher crowd, who park their F350s in front of their crappy, sub-prime mortgaged tract homes. The kind of guys who buy their entire wardrobe at Sportsmans Warehouse.

It's illeagal in the great state of Ohio. These boys are in Texas and are likely on a huge ranch with their own rules.

In Africa if by some some chance someone is watching when you break the game law they will just shoot you. At least that is my understanding.

They Exploit you for every nickle you have on you ,your guns ,your women , your vehicals , your shoes.

Shooting you gets them nothing.

That seems silly. After all you are hunting an animal with the latest technology, if you truly had ethics you would take down all your game like Rambo.

Man up...

They only kill you in movies (mostly anyway)
John they like to humiliate you while refering to you as Me Lord.

I was strip searched naked 3 times between Livingston Intl Airport and our bush camp in Zambia.It was all on Highways not in the bush.
They block the highways with armored vehicals and point AKs at your head ,they go through all your shit while your spread eagle and make things disapear.
Two hrs later your on your way again untill the next hold up.

Its the way of Africa.Go with the flow.

They scare the shit out of you.

these guys are very near my house...They do very good work on most of the rigs. I got a decent qoute for a rear bumper with swing-out tire mount for the dII, but yes very "texan" oriented for sure. Very nice Fab shop though.

Do you have details on the design for the bumper/swing-out tire mount? There is a post in the for sale section on a D1 SD rack... the guy has what appears to be a nice swing away rear tire carrier... the bar is on top running parallel with the bumper... clips in and also looks as if it has a screw knob to tighten it down into the bumper itself prevent any movement of the bar.
