BIGGAME.ORG DECEMBER 2019 | 1 DSC FOUNDATION Stand and Be Counted BY RICHARD T. CHEATHAM, DSC FOUNDATION EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR
en years. It is hard to believe it has been that long, but 10 years ago I was deep into the planning for First Light, the 2010 DSC Convention and Sporting Expo, marking the return Tto the Dallas Convention Center. The decision to return to the Convention Center was hotly debated, as was the decision a few years before to expand the Convention from three days to four, and even the decision to offer online bidding for live auction items. Change is often difficult but in many cases it is necessary. These changes, when viewed in hindsight, were unequivocally and resoundingly correct – each has played a role in the growth of the Club and that growth has contributed greatly to DSC’s rise in stature and prominence at home and on the world stage. No changes enacted by DSC have been more debated, studied and discussed, than the decisions to create the DSC Foundation and the DSC Chapter system, adopted in 2015, and, I would argue, no other decisions, past or future, will have a greater impact on the role that DSC will play in critical decisions that will impact hunting. The chapter system will expand the reach of DSC at home and abroad and will allow U.S. and international hunters to proudly represent the ideals that DSC has become known for. DSC Foundation stands at the starting line of its monumental charge. The aim is to change the way the public thinks about international hunting through support for sound, effective grant initiatives and to share those projects and the undeniable and irrefutable success stories evidencing the positive and beneficial impact of hunting for wildlife, wilderness and the local communities that live and work among wildlife. While we have begun to lay the foundation for addressing the key issues before us, it is important to admit that we are engaged in a battle that we have, in many respects, been slow to take on. We have let others control the narrative. We have allowed organizations with little or no actual concern for wildlife to seize the mantle of conservationist and to pervert and corrupt the governmental organizations and treaties that, in theory, were designed to protect flora and fauna. We have undertaken steps to address those missteps and more will come, but make no mistake, this is a fight for the future of hunting. With your support we can win. Without it, the fight is over. If you value hunting, if you value wildlife and wilderness, if you cherish your hunting heritage, the time has come to stand up and be counted. The best way to do that is by making a charitable donation to the Foundation to feed the fight. I am absolutely convinced the DSC Foundation and DSC are the organizations that will lead us to victory. CT

SC is proud to announce the hiring of Matthew Boguslawski Das a key part of the development of its Advocacy Department. Boguslawski will be the Manager of Advocacy.

Matt is charged with building relationships, working directly with wildlife departments and ministries, and providing the needed resources to ensure that African shareholders voices and desires are heard and recognized as the experts in African wildlife management.” DSC has experienced the growing influence of western governments and anti-sustainable use NGOs advancing their ideals, beliefs and agendas at the expense of Africa’s wildlife, habitats and local people. Through its Advocacy Department, headed by Boguslawski, DSC will be strategically working to ensure that those who manage and live with these species have a loud and prominent voice in these debates. Mason said, “Western arrogance cannot continue to be what influences the management of Africa’s wildlife and their habitats.” Boguslawski said, “Leading DSC’s Advocacy Department is my As DSC has continued to build its presence greatest honor, even in light of my anti-poaching, community in many conservation arenas, this hiring has development, and advocacy efforts.

Mark took his first big-game animal, a small South Texas whitetail, at the age of 13. His first non-whitetail big-game animal was a pronghorn antelope that he took in 1989 on a hunt with another OHAA recipient, the late Greg Bond. After the completion of his pediatric residency, Dr. Wayne was able to hunt more extensively with trips across the United States, Mexico, Canada, Africa, Europe and the South Pacific. The completion of the North American 29 was a slow and steady process with one to three hunts per year while the Wild Goats of the World animals came at a more rapid pace. The final animal of the 29 was a desert sheep taken on Carmen Island. “The highlight of that hunt was to be able to share it with my wife of 30 years, Angie, and my mother, Sara,” Mark said. Dr. Wayne’s children, Rachel and Colton, have each been awarded the DSC Colin Caruthers Young Hunter Award. CT Dr. Mark Wayne

This was the 22nd annual event but was the first year that the Vintage Gunners Cup was held in Pennsylvania. The new location did not stop a strong shooter turnout. Over 300 people participated in various shotgun competitions that included side- by-side events (hammerless and hammer gun) in all gauges from 10 through .410, as well as events for stalking and stopping rifles (doubles, single shots, and bolt actions), drillings, combination and cape guns. Vendors from across the country and around the world also filled tents to display their merchandise to shooters and the general public. DSC Northeast was proud to support this event and fly the DSC flag to a new audience. Promoting Dallas Safari Club to a new audience, the DSC Northeast Chapter was present for the entire three-day event and served as sponsor for the rifle competition as well as the cocktail party on the closing evening. DSC Northeast President Mark Jones was also interviewed by the press and discussed the mission of Dallas Safari Club and promoted DSC’s new chapter structure. CT
20 | DALLAS SAFARI CLUB NEWS BIGGAME.ORG CONSERVATION NEWS Chevrotain Spotted After 30 Years
cientists use camera-trap photographs to confirm that the rare silver-backed chevrotains remain in the wild of SAsia. The study published in Nature: Ecology & Evolution in November confirms that the rabbit-sized chevrotain unique to Vietnam, Tragulus versicolor, is not extinct, although it had not been seen since a hunter donated the animal’s body to science in 1990. Search strategies and targets were researched by the scientists, and discussed further during interviews with local villages, for about a year before the cameras were deployed in April 2018 over a certain area of dry coastal forest region in southern Vietnam. Increased enforcement efforts have begun at the site where the species was recorded. The authors urge conservation scientists and stakeholders to follow this finding with additional surveys and protection. CT
Trivia Fun: How many species of chevrotain can you name? Answers: Water chevrotain Java chevrotain Silver-backed chevrotain (Hyemoschus aquaticus) (Tragulus javanicus) (Tragulus versicolor) Vietnam Sri Lankan spotted chevrotain Lesser Malay chevrotain Williamson’s mouse-deer (M. meminna sensu stricto) (Tragulus kanchil) (Tragulus williamsoni) Indian spotted chevrotain Greater Malay chevrotain Thailand/China (M. indica, South Asia to Nepal) (Tragulus napu) Yellow-striped chevrotain Philippine mouse-deer or (M. kathygre, Sri Lanka) Balabac chevrotain (Tragulus nigricans) https://doi.org/10.1038/s41559-019-1027-7
BIGGAME.ORG DECEMBER 2019 | 21 OUTDOORS TOMORROW FOUNDATION Students Gain Hands-on Experience at DSC S.A.F.E.T.Y. Extravaganza
utdoor Adventures (OA) students turned classroom theory into hands-on experience by trying out various firearms Oand bows at the DSC S.A.F.E.T.Y. Extravaganza at Greystone Castle Sporting Club on September 21. Outdoor Adventures, the outdoor education curriculum developed and implemented by Outdoors Tomorrow Foundation, is now in 526 public and private schools across 35 states. The Extravaganza hosted 125 OA students (and one parent/guardian for each of them) from the DFW Metroplex. Many dedicated DSC volunteers gave their time and expertise to teach the students about safely handling and firing rifles, shotguns, muzzleloaders and pistols. Archery and crossbow were also taught, along with a field safety exercise. One student wrote his OA teacher a note after the event, “I would first like to tell you thank you so much for inviting me on this trip – I am so excited. My favorite part of the event was either shooting the bow or shooting the muzzleloader. The archery was memorable because I got to learn how to shoot a left-handed bow for the first time.” No doubt these kids will remember and benefit from their experiences at the S.A.F.E.T.Y. event for years to come.

BIGGAME.ORG DECEMBER 2019 | 23 CLUB NEWS Trophy Room Tour he first thing J.B. and Tracy Smith did when they moved to Dallas was jump feet first into DSC. They probably didn’t picture just a couple years later that 100 DSC Tmembers and friends would be filling their home on a November Thursday night. (Or maybe they did! The house layout was just right for the gathering.) The Smiths were the perfect hosts as the buses unloaded from the DSC office and everyone arrived at their home. Guests were greeted instantly by the many mounts of J.B.’s mountain and high-altitude hunts covering the walls. Straight ahead were two full body bear mounts and an antler chandelier hanging from the ceiling. When the Smiths moved to Dallas, they were looking for an older house with some land open to build on. As planned, the Trophy Room has come together nicely, and there will be even more to see once the taxidermy is finished from their Africa trip. Some staff favorites from the night included the half-body caribou mount, the bow-hunted elk collection and the bronze art pieces. A warm thank you to the Smiths for hosting this year’s Trophy Room Tour, and to all who attended. CT

For the elk-size game, I certainly on the wide-open prairies, nor would I take a light and fast bullet recommend a .30-06 Springfield or any of the .300 Magnums, if I were hunting whitetails in the swamps and woods. You need with 180-grain bullets. For just deer hunting, my first choice is a to find a compromise for your hunting conditions. .270 Winchester or a 7mm Remington Magnum for long range Energy, measured in foot-pounds (ft. lbs.), is not a true hunting. Of course don’t discount the WSM or Remington Ultra guideline as to what gun or ammunition to use. Push a light Magnum calibers. bullet fast enough and it will give you incredible numbers. Get a Most importantly, just use the gun with which you can place bullet heavy enough, and you do not have to push it very fast to the first shot correctly at 200-plus yards. get the same ft. lbs. as the light fast bullet. Then factor in bullet Recently, a reader wrote to ask what was the best bullet for a construction, and it all changes again. .300 Winchester Magnum for a Dall sheep hunt. I asked him if he The new trend is light and fast, as Hornady’s Superformance had a favorite load for deer? If so, use it on the sheep, as all he had ammo shows 100 to 200 fps faster than conventional ammo, and to do was have a bullet that would hit the sheep. Sheep are not it’s available in a wide variety of calibers and bullet styles. especially hard to kill as compared to whitetails or African plains Extraordinary circumstances also come to mind, as just game, so don’t over think it. recently a fellow called to ask about what he should take to Africa I get a lot of questions, and most of them boil down to what is for the little duikers and steenboks. the easiest, fastest, or cheapest anything. Let me answer some of He was thinking of a .243 Winchester or a .22 Hornet with those unasked questions here. light recoil, but I’ll take the opposite position in that I want a There are no free rides in shooting. Haste makes waste, and the slower and heavier bullet for the little guys just like I want for faster the bullet goes, the quicker the barrels wear out. You get the big guys.

So spend time 150-grain bullets plus several calibers on up to a .375 H&H practicing with it, don’t worry about getting a new one, and try to Magnum with 300-grain bullets. I have found that a 300-grain use ammo and bullets designed for the job at hand. bullet with a muzzle velocity of 2,400 fps will do a lot less damage It doesn’t matter if you reload or use some of the fine stuff than a .308 Winchester does with 150-grain bullets at 2,800 fps. that the factories now have available, nothing beats bullet The reason is because bullet construction coupled with velocity placement.
