We had a great 2015 hunting season in South Africa and to kick off the new year, we are offering these discounted plains game hunting specials which are valid any time in 2016. However, you must book your hunt before 31 January 2016 to take advantage of these prices and we are only offering a limited number of each special. All of these specials may be upgraded with additional animals and/or hunting days.

These specials are all-inclusive and there are no hidden costs. Basically, you are responsible for transporting yourself, your gear, and your trophy to and from Africa. We will pick you up and drop you off at the airport and take care of everything in between. While we have a very high success rate on our hunts, if you do not take any animal included in your package, you will not be charged the listed trophy fee at the time of booking or you may credit it towards another animal.

Your hunt will begin with pick-up at Johannesburg International Airport then you will be driven to our hunting camp. The Highveld and Spiral Horn specials will be conducted at our hunting area in Gauteng Province, which is only about 1.5 hours from Johannesburg International Airport. The Bushveld, Limpopo River, and Family specials will be conducted at our hunting area in Limpopo Province right on the border with Botswana, which is about 5.5 hours from Johannesburg International Airport. Photos of the accommodations at both places are below. As you can see in the photos, both camps are very nice and you will sleep and eat comfortably while on the hunt. All hunters will be lodged in an individual chalet with a bed, shower, sink, toilet, and 220v electricity. Our professionally trained chef is skilled at preparing authentic South African cuisine and wild game.

We strive to provide our hunters a truly authentic African safari with exceptional personal service. For this reason, we do not use outside PHs and we only book one hunting party at a time. If you hunt with us, you will truly experience what Africa has to offer: you’ll get to see and stalk some of the most elusive species on the continent, sit around the campfire and swap hunting stories, hear hyenas at night, and then wake up the next morning and do it all again.

Feel free to PM me with any questions that you have about these specials. I'll also be at the 2016 Washington Sportsmen's Show on 27-31 January 2016 in Booth 451. So if you’re in the area, feel free to stop by and see me in person.

For more details on these specials, visit our web site.

Looks like good prices for some desirable packages. It is good to have an endorsement from Gunner, as well.

We also recently released this video to give potential hunters a good feel for the sights and sounds of a hunt with us. This is the exact area where gunner500 did most of his hunting with us. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a4R-ulk_Jk8

These are good packages. The one I had (with another outfit) was Limpopo River Plains Game Hunting Special only I got a Blesbok instead of an Eland. If somebody is thinking a one time trip to Africa, this would be a good one. Problem is I figured one time but I want to go again. I think it get's in the blood. smile

In addition to his buffalo, gunner500 also bagged a kudu, zebra, gemsbok, impala, steenbok, & duiker on his hunt. I know some of those photos are floating around at various different places on the campfire, but I've consolidated all of his plains game photos below.

You and me both, mate!

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.

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.
