332: Hunting Africa With The 6.5 Creedmoor With Adam Wies (aka WHO_TEE_WHO)

332: Hunting Africa With The 6.5 Creedmoor With Adam Wies (aka WHO_TEE_WHO)

Author: John McAdams September 12, 2024 Duration: 1:21:42

Adam Wies (better known as WHO_TEE_WHO on YouTube) is up next in my ongoing Africa hunting mini-series. We actually just hosted Adam on a plains game hunt with us in Africa and yes, he did hunt with a 6.5 Creedmoor. As you'll learn here shortly, Adam had an outstanding trip. None of those 6.5 Creedmoor bullets bounced off any game and he actually had a couple of very impressive kills with it. I joined Adam on a YouTube live session on his channel where he and I discussed things with his trip in detail. This is the audio from that discussion.
