Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Africa Who Has A Trip Booked For 07?

Two friends and I leave on May 23 to hunt with JJ Hack for 7 days. It is our first trip.

BigUgly,

What is this "CGN" of which you write?

I leave for Botswana in 2 or 3 weeks time or so and will be there for about 4 weeks. I'll be doing a Leopard hunt followed by one or possibly 2 PAC Elephant bull hunts and then a plains game hunt. Then I've got 2 or 3 days to get to Tanzania. The first 6 weeks will be spent in Masailand conducting 2 back to back 21 day hunts for cats as the primary quarry, then onto the Selous for the rest of the season. Some Buff hunts plus (I think) 3 Lion, Leopard and Elephant hunts. I've also got a 21 day hunt elsewhere in Tanzania for Roberts and EA Greater Kudu etc. Then I drive back to SA in time for for Christmas. I believe I have 2 or 3, 7 day periods free at the moment but hopefully two of them will be sold and the other 7 days I hope to be able to spend looking at properties in Dar es Salaam and/or Arusha as I'm sick to death on living in SA and want to move to East Africa.

All in all, it's gonna be a good season!

Kindly leave me a big waterbuck...my son and I,along with two of our hunting friends, leave June 2 07 to hunt 10 days with Jim...Good luck and a safe trip!

We may run into you, then. Our trip ends June 2! Our flight back is the 3rd. Are you staying at the Afton House after your arrival?

My son and I will be there the same time as you. I am really looking forward to this adventure........Will see ya in a month or so.

Yes, we are staying at the Afton House the night we arrive in Joberg..

Woodswalker...great, should be really big fun..we are excited!

I'm going to Zim for buff and sable in late July.

Early August will find myself and another Campfire member in block L1, Selous of Tanzania hunting buff and PG.

Thanks, martinbns.

Well it sounds like we'll have plenty of opportunity here at the Campfire to read stories and view photographs after you all return at the end of the season...jorge

I'll have to live vicariously through everyone elses Safari again this year. So be sure to post up your reports and pictures!

I'm seriously looking at Zim for '09 with either John Sharp or Barrie Duckworth for Leopard and Buff.

FO: Either PH is first class. Naturally my vote goes to john and given his success with cats over the last few years, I don't think you can go wrong.

As to this year, yes it will be great to see the pictures...but I'm sure the usual suspect will come up with one of his NINE excuses why he had to cancel at the last minute,doesn't know how to post pictures or doesn't due to privacy issues. It's as hard as herding CATS....jorge

Going in July to Zim with Safariman. Huntin Leopard, Buff and Sable. Thinking now of adding a Waterbuck or maybe a Eland.

Back to Namibia in July to hunt again with Boet Nel for plainsgame. Looking for a HUGE kudu, blue wildebeest, and whatever else may need to be killed.

Leaving May 13th for Zim. PAC elephant and Cape Buffalo are on the menu.

Leaving May 16th for a 10 day Plains game hunt in Namibia with Otjiruze. This will be my first time to Africa and hope to take the following game. Kudu, Oryx, Springbuc, Hardeebeast, Zebra, Warthog, Baboon, Jackel and a few birds.

The wife and I are heading to Namibia for a 10 day safari then 3-4 days of touring Etosha, then to South Africa for 14 days of hunting. This is my first trip and I can't hardly wait.

I'll be going to SA July 16 thru the 29th. Hunting with Jim Hackiewicz safari's with a PH of his Pieter Kriel. This will be my first adventure to Africa and I will be hunting Kudu, Bushbuck, Impala, Nyala and a warthog. I have gone ahead and booked a 21 day safari to Tanzania for 2009 for elephant, leopard, buffalo and a lesser Kudu. Hunting both masailand and the selous. A last hurrah before I retire.
