Not with hounds it wont. You cant even hunt leopard legally in RSA right now. The only place you can legally hunt them with hounds is Zim( and maybe Moz). And it will cost a LOT more than 10-12k. I did it in Botswana 10 years ago before it was stopped. A close range charge is almost guaranteed in the Kalahari because of a lack of large trees and caves for the cat to bay up in. I killed mine with a 12 gauge and SSG in mid air 8-9 feet of the muzzle. Landed at my feet.
