About this listen

The Cloth-Eared Elephant — The guys reflect on their successful first day of hunting while getting accustomed to the landscape. As the sun sets on their first full day in South Africa, the group gathers around the fire to relive every detail—from the early-morning excitement to the final tracks of the evening. With fresh eyes and high spirits, they recount learning the terrain, reading the animals, and adjusting to the rhythm of the bushveld.

Stories unfold about the shots that landed, the unsuccessful tracks, and the unexpected lessons that came with navigating entirely new country. The crew shares laughs about first-day quirks, celebrates memorable moments, and introduces the inside jokes born from just a few hours in the field—like the infamous “cloth-eared elephant.”

This opening episode sets the tone for the whole adventure: honest storytelling, good-natured ribbing, and the camaraderie that only forms when hunters experience something unforgettable together.
