Just returned from 8 day safari with Crusader Safaries,, In south africa This was the trip of a lifetime.. I highly recommend Crusader Safaries,, The owner Andrew Pringle and our PH Rad Robertson are fantastic.. My son and I took 12 trophy animals.. Everything was perfect,, food,, accomodations,, vehicles, camp staff, I used Steve Turner Travel with Guns,, and RiflePermits.com to book the trip and take care of gun permits..Both are highly recommended.. No problems... I will be back

Great to hear you had a good time.
You know, you can’t go just once.

Excellent grayfox. I've heard great things about Crusader, and I can echo your comments on Steve Turner. Congrats on a great trip. Now get busy and post up some pics for us!

I've heard a lot of great things about Crusaders, half million acres of free roaming (no fence) animals. Did you book thru Dunns Sporting? Thanks.

Congrats on the trip! Hunted with Crusader last year and had a fantastic time. Would not hesitate to recommend them.

Problem with African Safaris is that you're not even done with the 1st one & you're planning the 2nd, then 3rd, then 4th. It's a serious affliction. There is no cure. I'm headed back over this August. Glad you had a good trip. Plains game is a fun hunt. Bob

Yep. Zimbabwe last year, Namibia this year and Burkina Faso next year. Mozambique is next I suspect.
Conduct is the best proof of character.

Namibia in 2016, 2nd trip in in less than a month to Zambia. Would like to experience Mozambique and even SA hunting on future trips.

Grayfox, No write up and no pics...? Never happened! Only through copious amounts of stories and tons of photos can the veracity be determined.

I'd like to set up a trip. OSU, do your research, but I can save you a ton of time..........go straight to Kowas Safaris and you'll have the hunt of a lifetime, be treated like family, enjoy fantastic food, etc. I talked to them at DSC like I always do, and they now have a near 80% return hunter rate. That speaks volumes.

You told me about them at DSC but I didn't have time to go talk to them. Let's get together at next year's DSC and walk down there to visit. I'm really interested in going.
