Kwapa Borehole Construction
Tough times in the Okavango. Faced by the worst drought we have seen in 65 years many animals are staring down a year of thirst and famine. Want to contribute? Here is how you can help www.guidetrainingcourses.com/okavango-delta
This is an outline of the process to provide water for animals in an area with elephants. There is a huge amount of work that goes into not only drilling the borehole, but also trenching the pipe deep enough that the elephants do not destroy it. The borehole itself is surrounded by a deep and wide trench with the soil piled on the inside. Atop this, large leadwood logs are placed using earth moving equipment. The scent of fresh water eminating from the borehole makes elephant want to get to the source. Once they do, the rip out the pipes, the pumps and all the solar wiring.

Hi from where?
From a place oft Faith

The first tribe man on earth to live with wilderness and still maintain the balance of nature🫡
I really appreciate you and how to be part of your training am from Tanzania
Just a luck to me because I start to learn guiding and whilst I meet with very interesting program
Amazing
Grant nailed it! All you need to know before you sign up a course is there. I joined this course in 2021 and it was a fantastic lifetime experience. Highly recommended, but far away from a cheap safari.
Jono has so much passion for wilderness and nature. He is a very professional guide and loves to share his stories and experiences.
it was my dream to become a safari guide but it will never happen
it pooped
what type of rifle is that
458 win mag
Cheap world is not good rather use its real world hardcore safari
wounderful staff Rremogolo
parece que a presa c entrega a morte!
most passionate guy I know!!!! Love you!!!
Common misconception that if you had a relaxed/decocked firing pin on a loaded chamber that it 'couldn't discharge'. Not true at all, the situation you described would mean that you have the pin under tension resting on the live primer, which would still be potentially dangerous (unless you had a floating pin). For a trails rifle the models that feature decockers (Blaser, some Sauers, etc.) would be fantastic and you could safely carry one up. They are just unfortunately really expensive.
Fantastic promo video guys...says it all and not too long! Awesome.
There is my bro Cameron
Wow he’s beautiful
Wow. Such a nice sight. I'd love to see Stompy (Lioness) again. The last time we saw her she was with other four younger lionesses. She took us by complete surprise as we went round a curve and boom she was right on the middle of the road. We followed her as she looked to be hunting. A little while later she went in the direction we had spotted her from and right there were f0ur more females lying on the road.
hahaha, funny listening to myself kinda fumble.
Don't think you fumble at all!
looking foward to enrolling OGS

Fantastic video! Keep it up!
Lovely content! Keep it up!
Excellent video. Keep it up!
When is your next video? :D Keep it up!
Thanks for watching, it will be next Tuesday if all goes to plan!
Exellent vid! i cant stress the importance of proper bolt manipulation enough! you are one of the few people i know who knows the importance of pushing the bolt inline with the rifle.
Is that a CZ 550 magnum? American? Caliber?
I hate big cheattas
Great video.... hope to see more like this.
Good memories of the old days of OGS. Enough firepower there to repel any stampede!
