On
one side is the big game hunter. On the other side is a wild big game
animal—instinctive, vigorous, quick, blessed with sharp senses and protected
by the habitat as well as more familiar with it. You’re inside the dense
bush where visibility is almost nil, where the ability to maneuver is
slight, and where the advantage rests with the quarry. The game that selects
this kind of territory is usually the dangerous kind. At times like this the
wind can often be the referee. When this situation occurs you’ll want
someone with experience and a heavy caliber rifle on your team. You’ll also
want to know what kind of rifle and ammunition an expert thinks you should
be using. After all, on the big game hunting field, whoever comes off second
best pays with his life.
The big game hunting community has long known Hugo Seia, a professional
hunter who is highly regarded both by other professionals as well as by a
host of sport hunting clients from around the world. The reading public was
first introduced to Hugo when his enormously popular (and almost sold out
first book) MUNDJAMBA, The Life Story of an African Hunter came on the
market. Now, at the request of colleagues, clients and readers, Hugo has
produced a second book, also about African dangerous game hunting, but with
lots more detail on the how and why in addition to the superb narration.
There is a highly readable and eminently useful chapter on rifle selection
and use, ammunition and a lengthy story by Ross Seyfried on a most unusual
Cape buffalo hunt.
 |
Hugo Seia treats each of the dangerous game species separately. IN ANY
KIND OF COVER offers a workable format for both experienced hunters and
armchair adventurers. First, Hugo talks about the dangerous game itself, the
terrain in which they’re found and the character and traits they typically
exhibit (especially when hunted or their territory is encroached upon by
hunters). Then he talks about rifle selection. Finally, of course, there are
hunting narratives that illustrate both the points he has made and “the
exceptions that prove the rule.” As always his narratives are lively and
recounted in a sprightly fashion.
 |
Hugo Seia has enjoyed a very long professional hunting career. His
stories and advice are straightforward, told from the heart and sometimes
heart-stopping. After all, his experiences represent more than fifty years
of hunting dangerous game. Hugo has held professional hunting licenses in
eight African countries and is currently working in Tanzania and Botswana.
Ross Seyfried said at the end of his buffalo hunt, “I was glad we succeeded.
My tracker was glad the buffalo had not.” We guarantee you’ll be glad that
you read IN ANY KIND OF COVER. It is one fantastic big game hunting book. If
you’re planning a hunt or looking for great reading, IN ANY KIND OF COVER,
Hunting the Dangerous Game of Africa is a must.
