(1.) Everything You Need...Right Here!
Over
the years we have dramatically expanded our offering as a result
of customer requests to simplify the task of getting outfitted
for their Safari. They
did not want to go through the hassle of purchasing their gear
from multiple outlets only to find out too late that some of
it was not up to the rigors of the Dark Continent. They wanted
the ability to go to one place to buy all the safari proven gear
they needed for their trip.
Today, we are pleased to announce you can get everything you need….RIGHT
HERE! We have gone out and complemented our extensive range
of custom-crafted products with the most trusted brands in
the business; TUFFPAK airline cases, Craig Boddington books and DVD’s,
The Courteney Boot Company, Swarovski Optics,
Camelbak Hydration Systems, and much, much more.
  
 
Now you can buy all your airline approved rifle cases and luggage
you need to pack for your trip, get your Craig Boddington safari
books and DVD’s for the flight over/back and secure the very
best gear to ensure an enjoyable, safe and successful hunt. When
it is all over, you can also buy authentic African Jewelry, furnishings
and Trophy Room accents to relive your incredible experience
at home without having to worry about carting products purchased
in Africa through several airports and then clearing them through US
Customs/Fish and Game.
You asked for us to simplify the process and we listened. Please
keep your input flowing as that is the only way we will be able to
continue offering the products and services you are looking for.
(2) We have formed a 10 person Pro Staff
One of the things we have heard over and over again is how much
our customers like being able to talk to knowledgeable people who could answer
any questions they might have. As our business has grown, we had to tap into
the knowledge of others to ensure you received the information and products
needed.
On that note, we are pleased to announce we have established a “Big
Five” Pro-Staff of African PH’s that includes:
- Dirk de Bod from Namibia who won the 2008 SCI PH of the Year and
is one of the most skilled PH’s on the Dark Continent today.
- Johan Calitz, who was the primary PH featured on the “Under
Wild Skies” TV show with Tony Makris. This is the gentleman
who Craig Boddington took his largest elephant with a few years back. Johan
takes more big tuskers out of Botswana and Mozambique than anyone
else year in and year out.
- John Sharp from Zimbabwe who is a consistent winner at the
Zimbabwe PH Awards banquet and in 2006 took honors for both the largest
elephant and largest leopard to come out of the country that year.
- Douglas McNeil was the PH featured on the “Cabela’s
Dangerous Game” TV Show and is a third generation hunter who
works in Tanzania. He is equally adept with a fly rod or a
camera and has hunted all over the world.
- Charles Price from South Africa whose father was one of the Game
Ranch Pioneers who re-established many of the native species of that
country and made it one of the premier plains game destinations. Charles
has been hunting for almost his entire life and runs a great operation.
- We also have several of the best know North American Guides and
FHS’s (Female Hunters and Shoppers who select the Jewelry/Accessories)
on board to ensure any new products will meet our high performance
and aesthetic standards. Please go to our web site for complete details
on the additional members of our Pro Staff.
It is important to point out that every individual on our Pro Staff
used our gear before we asked them to join the group. They did
not all of a sudden become fans of ours because of this recent
development. Equally
important is the fact we have feet on the ground in the most popular
African and North American hunting destinations and we can contact
them on your behalf to get real-time answers to your questions.

(3) Sporting Wood Creations has been renamed to African Sporting Creations
When we started out six years ago, we only offered one product,
African Shooting Sticks made out of wood, hence the name Sporting Wood Creations. Interestingly
enough, that first product, after many improvements just received the most
coveted award in the industry, a “Gray’s Best".
Since
that first product, we have added over 200 custom made creations
that include British Campaign Furniture, hand-crafted knives and Cape buffalo
products, just to name a few. As we have expanded into branded products
and those made of canvas, steel and hide our name has become too limiting
and we knew we needed a new one. The good folks at Safari Classics came up
with, “African Sporting Creations”. This new name more
accurately captures our African focus, the much broader range of products
we now offer and is close enough to be familiar to all our existing customers. Don’t
worry about losing track of us, your existing bookmarks, phone numbers and
the search engines will still bring you to our doorstep. We hope you like
it.
(4) WE ARE SPONSORING CRAIG BODDINGTON'S TV SHOW
We are also excited to be a sponsor of the Hornady’s Africa
TV Show with Craig Boddington which is on the Sportsman’s Channel. Craig
has become the authority on all things dealing with Africa and we are
honored to be a small part of his team. Make sure you play the video
of our 30 second commercial below and be sure to watch the show for
addition tips on how to put our products to good use. Watch the Video
