I just returned from a 7 day plains game hunt (7 hunting days, 9 days total). My package was $7500 and trophies included red hartebeest, blesbuck, springbuck, nyala, bushbuck and waterbuck. Add airfare at $2100, one night hotel in NY $250, tips $600, trinkets $200, dip/pack/freight $1500 budgeted and the taxidermy stateside $4400 quoted.
Total: $16550.00
It adds up awfully fast.

But the experience and memories are worth every penny!!!
