Those pics of your trophies got me mouth watering, amigo! Like you, I caught the Africa bug on my "once-only" Zimbabwe hunt last year. And these prices are awfully good. I can't swing it in 2016, but 2017 is looking like my target date for a return trip.

BGH, what are your prices for a non-hunting companion?

That's right, $250 per person, per day for a non-hunter.

Doc; if you go to RSA with the memsahib I would encourage you to extend your time and do some touring. There are some wonderful things to see, do, eat and drink in South Africa. From my limited experience, most if not all PHs are very well connected into the tourism scene and will gladly help you get set up for a wonderful tour.


This past May my wife and I hunted for 10 days in the Eastern cape, toured for 10 days; down to Cape Town and back, and finished with 2 days on the beach. Whilst I was hunting our PH arranged for a tour guide for my wife. Some days she would come along on the hunt for 1/2 day and then do some touring on the tougher hunting days she would just tour. It worked out very well.

In my opinion; and my opinion and $5 will buy you a Starbucks coffee, far too often hunters will miss out on some really cool experiences by not touring.

All the best and I hope you can get back to Africa soon. My one and only in 2009, lead to a 2015 trip and hopefully back a gain real soon.

Be careful. There IS an African virus, and I caught it in the Eastern Cape of RSA in 2007. I was told that there was no cure, only treatments. I went back for my first treatment in 2009, and for my second in 2010. Sad to say, the treatments didn't work, and I still have the virus. Not a day goes by that I don't want to take my Sharps and go again. It is a delicious disease, and I'm glad I caught it. But it is a bitch, no doubt about it.

I don't really want to cure it. The memories keep me going.

Since we have been getting so much interested in these specials, we've decided to extend them through the end of the month. Contact me before 29 February 2016 in order to lock in these prices, which will be valid for any hunt this year.
The photos below were both taken of kudu on our hunting area in Gauteng Province in this month. 2016 is shaping up to be a great year and we can offer some great hunting opportunities for some truly excellent trophies. Feel free to PM me for more details or with any questions you may have.
