I would cut out the two first shots. the oryx is shot on the shoulderblade and the wildebeast is shot too far back.
Besides that the guy with the leopard who falls, is pretty funny

m9a9g9i9c - Thank you, i will change that, i am glad you like the Leopard fall, i also thought it was funny.

halfbakedi420 - I liked the baboon as well, but you will not imagine the amount of problems i have had with that, it started with my fast education on this site, then i had the You tube community alert, i am on 6 months probation at youtube, then i would not even mention the e-mails i received on that one.
Believe you me, i will not do that again !!!

I want to test another idea against you guys, we have been sending newsletters to our clients and friends for the past few years about the progress and updates at Select Safaris.
But this week i got this idea of instead of sending out newsletters, i would rather create something like a youtube news channel and present our newsletter in a News Program style.
The reson i am asking this question is that i am in Africa, this sounds like a cool idea over here, but what would the take on this idea be among hunters and you guys in the "modern" world.

I thank you for your inputs this far, and i am looking forward to more, on the baboon deal i have learned so much in this forum, that i decided i would rather consult the wise ones before i just do something again!!!

hard to believe ya caught some flack on a hunting site over hunting baboons...i see impact shots all the time on public tv....but o well, what can ya do?

as far as a news letter...if it had baboons getting whacked in the head by an arrow, i'd watch em.... but seeing how that probably aint happenin again, it would be kind of a toss up i think...i'd imagine the baboon shot got a mil hits? so you would have to come up with somethin just as good and gory to get people to watch...animal planet shows em living all the time, i like seeing both the kill, and the let em go to watch em grow, hope this helps

You are 100% with the amount of hits i got, i have never had that type of response on any post or vid before, for the 5 days it was online we had huge numbers of people viewing it.

You should come and visit us then you can help me with episode 2 of the baboon, I will I will give you the baboon for free :-)

wish i could take ya up on that.
i have ventured toward goin to africa,
but the cost are so extreme..
i cant even afford the taxidermy and shipment and taxes of a trophy..
to get em done right and ship them here is 10k-50k...
i have been offered free air fare,
free guides service,
free room and board..
but never at the same time.
lol noone wants to pay fer my taxes and taxi services lol
tight wads

im thinkin if ya had a website, ya could post what ever video's ya want..huh? check my profile fer my web page..on the right hand side of my page is a tab to start free website. check their requirements for pics and video's

[selectsafaris]

Well if your thoughts turn that way again, talk to me i might be able to work out a deal for you where i can offer you two of the services you mentioned..

There is more than one way to skin a cat :-)
