CampTalk DALLAS SAFARI CLUB NEWS VOLUME 27, ISSUE 8 SEPTEMBER 2014 Welcome New Members DSC is growing all the time! In July, new members and DSC officers, directors and life members gathered to go through a few shells − lobster shells, that is. (If you just joined, don’t worry, you will be included in next summer’s round of invitations.) Every month, Camp Talk publishes the list of new members and sponsors as of the previous recording period. Be sure to check that page every month for your name, if you are new, or if you have sponsored someone. Invite your family, friends, neighbors and co-workers and make this club YOUR club.

Moms, dads and kids are readying for school; teal are swirling in anticipation of leading the fall migration; elk have shed their velvet and are eyeing their summer-mates with a look of distrust and dislike in anticipation of the September rut; there’s quickness to the grizzly bear’s foraging that wasn’t there just a month ago. That quickened pace is evident at the DSC office too. Ben Carter and his dedicated staff have shifted into convention mode because Traditions is only four months away. The DSC 100 volunteers are sorting their committee assignments and preparing for their next meeting on Oct. 9 in order to be able to continue to show our convention exhibitors and attendees the hospitality they’ve come to expect. Meanwhile, in just the last month, DSC has organized and attended meetings in Newfoundland, New York, Washington, D.C., Bozeman, Dallas and Austin with stakeholders, wildlife biologists, and government officials in furtherance of its hunter advocacy mandate. We suspect the ban on elephant ivory trophy imports from Tanzania and Zimbabwe will be lifted when the good folks at USFWS review an updated elephant management plan that demonstrates the benefits provided by legal elephant hunting and healthy and growing elephant populations. Your donations to DSC are paying for the creation of that plan. Likewise, the status of the African lion is being decided based on USFWS biologists’ professional review of reams of scientific data and population studies − provided by DSC and others — that show healthy and growing lion populations in all their occupied range except West Africa. Wildlife officials and politicians in British Columbia need research data in order to make a scientific based decision on a proper Grizzly bear quota. DSC is funding that research. Closer to home, DSC’s member activity calendar is brimming with opportunities for those of you in North Texas to take advantage of your membership. Once again, DSC hosts a dove hunt at the Hailey Ranch near Abilene on Sept. 5-6. The fall S.A.F.E.T.Y. event, DSC’s signature youth, parent and volunteer hunting education program, is right around the corner and I hope you choose to participate Sept. 20 at Greystone Castle in Mingus, Texas. Right now is the right time to call the DSC office at (972) 980-9800, or sign up online at www.signupgenius.com for a day of service and camaraderie you won’t soon forget. Whether it’s the swoosh of a passing flight of teal, that first faint whistle from a distant bull emanating from a dark basin below, or any one of a thousand other sights and sounds that are the hunter’s reward, you owe it to yourself and your family to experience the awe. Now is the time to quicken your pace of hunting adventure, and pass it on. We at DSC are proud to be a part of your adventure, and prouder still to be a part of a special community of conservationists whose responsibility is to preserve opportunity so others can experience the awe. “Cause they never seen the Northern Lights, they never seen a hawk on the wing…” CAMP TALK PRODUCTION STAFF Ben F.

Gear The Little Girl and the Old Ten There are stories everywhere and in everything we do. Sometimes, these stories begin and we don’t even notice them until we recognize the ending. We often overlook the everyday routine when, in reality, we are in the midst of a story that will add wonderful lasting memories to our lives. These events often cement relationships not only in our lives but also in the lives of those close to us. There are stories everywhere and in everything we do. Sometimes, these stories begin and we don’t even notice them until we recognize the ending. We often over look the everyday routine when, in reality, we are in the midst of a story that will add wonderful lasting memories to our lives. These events often cement relationships not only in our lives but also in the lives of those close to us. I didn’t realize it but this story began in October 2011 on a routine trip to the deer lease to check trail cameras and feed for the upcoming season. We have a 2,600-acre pasture inside a 14,000 acre high fenced ranch just south and east of Encinal, Texas in Webb County. While I love game cameras, we have found that we get a relatively low percentage of our big bucks on camera so I was very pleased to find an old 10-point that would score low 150s. I decided right there I wanted to hunt this deer. Throughout the season, we had many pictures of him at the same feeder but always at night. I was sure when the rut kicked in, he would make a mistake but as the 2011 season came to a close we still had no daylight sightings. In 2012, about the same time in October, I again had the same deer on camera at the same feeder. He was about the same Boone & Crockett score but was trying to add an eleventh point. We aged him at seven-and-a-half years old so I knew it would be a good deer to take. Again, he was caught on camera at night, but occasionally at midday, so once again I spent a lot of time hunting this deer. It was mid-December and I was sitting in a blind not too far from where we had regular photos of the deer. I was watching several nice bucks nosing around some does when suddenly, “my” deer stepped out and looked directly at me before turning and following a doe into the brush. It all happened so fast I could not believe I finally saw him, much less have time to even think about getting my gun up. The rest of the season progressed with no more sightings of “my” deer. Finally, on the last weekend of the season, we had invited some guys out to hunt cull bucks. This is a great group of guys that would love the chance to hunt more. I was guiding for one of them and took him to the stand where we had all the pictures of “my” deer, but also where I also knew we had two great cull bucks. The middle of January is an interesting time in South Texas as you never know what might show up. It was our last night to hunt and it was just after 5 p.m. when one of our culls popped out to feed. After I confirmed this was one of the deer we were looking for, I told my hunter to get ready and wait for the right shot. For some strange reason I decided to look behind us and to my surprise, I saw “my” deer standing at 100 yards feeding. Now I had a dilemma because I knew if I took this shot, my buddy’s chances of getting a cull would disappear. After watching him feed for about two or three minutes (my buddy swears it was an hour), I gave the go ahead to take the cull. At the shot, I watched as my deer disappeared into the brush and my only hope was to see if he could make it until 2013. Late in February 2013, on a routine trip to the ranch to fill our protein Continued on page 8 bi g g ame . or g SEPTEMBER 2014 | 7 C ontinued from Page 7 The Little Girl and the Old Ten feeders and look for sheds when to our surprise, we found the matching sheds of “my” deer under his favorite feeder. We actually had one from the year before but I was so excited, I felt like I had been rewarded for not shooting him two months before. We taped him out at just over 150 B&C with a 20-inch spread and couldn’t believe how gnarled his bases were with lots of little “points.” Now fast forward to November 2013, and my first deer season hunt with my youngest daughter Libby. We arrived at the ranch late Thursday night so we made a plan to hunt one of our tower blinds the next morning and then check the cameras. The morning hunt was slow so we drove the ranch and pulled all the cards to take back to camp and look at deer pictures. The first card revealed two nice eightpoints coming into a feeder like clockwork every evening but it was the next card that held the real surprise. To my astonishment, I saw a picture of “my” deer just the night before at his regular location. You could tell he had gone down in antler but still sported good mass and his body condition was well past prime. I explained my excitement to my daughter and we discussed hunting the two eights or taking a chance on the old ten. She immediately said she wanted the old ten and would run the risk of going home empty handed. She liked that he was old and past his prime but I really think she knew I was excited about the deer. Because of his nocturnal feeding habits, I really was worried that we would not see him but she was set and wanted to get in the stand early just in case. It was just before 4 p.m. when we got settled − it was warm with nothing moving. About 5 p.m. we started to see some deer and about 5:15, we had a real nice cull buck step out on the same sendero where my buddy shot his buck on the last hunt of that season. We talked about her taking that deer but she was set on the old ten. At about 5:30, I looked down the sendaro I had last seen “my” buck on in January. To my surprise, he stepped out at 90 yards in almost the exact same spot I had last seen him. I slowly turned to my daughter and said, “shoot that deer right now!” At the shot, the deer jumped and headed into the brush but after a short walk of 40 yards in the brush, there laid the Old Ten. He was gnarly and awesome and the best deer my 12-year-old daughter has ever shot. After pictures and high fives and text messages to Mom, we headed back to camp where we scored him just over 135 inches and aged him by his teeth at over eight years old. Honestly, I couldn’t have had a better hunt and while I was fortunate enough to harvest my biggest deer to date later that year ,I still remember every moment of this hunt and consider it one of my all-time best. I am sure my daughter is a huge part of this but it was also about chasing the same deer for three years and after passing on him the end of the previous season to share that opportunity with her. That was a true blessing and it was also when I realized that it was the ending to a story that I didn’t even know had started three years earlier.

The DEF Board of Trustees contracted Mike’s expert services to create a new program, which promotes the numerous positive DEF programs, with the aim to raise funds for supporting these efforts. Through the Outdoor Adventures (OA) program, wildlife conservation, outdoor skills, hunter education and competitive shooting are taught as a full in-school curriculum in physical education classes. This school year, over 20,000 students in 200 schools in nine states will be taught the full OA curriculum. Students will spend 180 days in OA classrooms learning about the importance of hunting and sustainable-use of wildlife along with competitive shooting and outdoor skills. The DEF also has a college scholarship program where students seeking degrees in wildlife conservation will directly benefit from DEF sponsored scholarships. The new brochure and DVD will be used to seek donations from private sources, foundations, wildlife conservation groups and industry leaders. If you are interested in a copy of the new brochure or DVD, please contact Scot McClure, [email protected]. CT All contributions must be DEF Board approved.

Safaris have been legally operating the entire time. Dallas Safari Club (DSC) applauds the possible expansion of hunting operations in Zambia. If previously closed areas are indeed reopened, top outfitters will be offering hunts at the upcoming DSC convention and expo, Jan. 15-18. DSC will pass along details as they become available.

Instead, the move “benefits the poachers. It only assures that more elephants will get killed.” Lazaro Nyalandu, minister of Tanzania Natural Resources and Tourism, was in Dallas for an Aug. 7 meeting with Dallas Safari Club (DSC) and Texas Parks and Wildlife Department. Topics included the African nation’s efforts to slow poaching. The group exchanged ideas on ways to stop illegal activities and conserve species such as elephants, rhinos and lions. But law enforcement is expensive. The U.S. ban translates to drastic cuts in revenue from licensed, regulated, sustainable hunting. Reduced funding means less law enforcement in wildlife areas. DSC offered to help fund additional game wardens, training and equipment in Tanzania. The club currently grants more than $1 million annually for wildlife conservation causes worldwide. “We have criticized the ivory ban as a setback for conservation,” said Ben Carter, DSC executive director, “but the mainstream media is often quick to dismiss the opinions and expertise of hunters, as if our only knowledge of wildlife is how to hunt it. Like everyone else, we want these species to thrive. So it’s good to see Minister Nyalandu’s words gaining traction in the news – and hopefully in the minds of all thinking people who share our concerns about poaching.” Nyalandu and his colleagues had just attended the Aug. 4 U.S.-Africa Leaders’ Summit in Washington D.C. to discuss the concerns behind President Obama’s “National Strategy for Combating Wildlife Trafficking.” The document identifies three priorities: 1.) Strengthening law enforcement, 2.) Reducing demand, and 3.) Building international cooperation and partnerships. For 2014, Obama pledged more than $60 million to support these efforts. But Tanzanian officials say no funding from the U.S. government has been received so far, and that licensed, regulated, sustainable hunting is a reliable source of conservation funding. Nyalandu recently revoked all hunting concessions and licenses issued to Green Mile Safari Co. following evidence of egregious ethical and legal violations. DSC urged and praised the move. Also representing Tanzania at the DSC meeting were Dr. Freddy Manongi, Ngorongoro Conservation Area Authority; Dr. Simon Mduma, Tanzania Wildlife Research Institute; Ms. Devotha Mdachi, Tanzania Tourism Board; Pascal Shelutete, Tanzania National Parks; and Imani Nkuwi, chief of staff for Nyalandu. Joining Carter on behalf of DSC were Chris Hudson, president, and several DSC members. Also attending were Texas Parks and Wildlife Department officials as well as staff members of Sen. John Cornyn and Congressman Pete Sessions. CT GAME TRAILS ONLINE DCS’s Online Community Sees Continued Growth 2,170 10,984 94 / 32,648 6,864 2,390 Number of posts on Game Trails Online.
