I tip when I receive good service. My problem in a hunt in Africa is who should get tips. Here is a list you may or may not have thought about.
professional hunter
outfitter in camp
cook
dish washer
laundry person
house keeper
driver who picks you up/delivers you at the airport
tracker(s)
perhaps 3-4 Skinners
camp organizer
The list seems endless perhaps but that is one of the real questions I have. I have seen African TV shows that have upwards of 4-5 additional hands assisting with the actual hunt. Perhaps every day it is a different bunch of guys. Do each person get tips? Do I leave a tip for the hunt with the PH and hope that it gets distributed fairly? What to do? I would appreciate JJHack adding his 2cents to this topic.
