It has been a while since I posted but I am down to my last few nights in Africa and wanted to post my report. I arrived in the Eastern Cape 7/12. I will take the time to give details of each when I return. This is my fourth trip to Africa and I made this one alone. The guys at Debeers Safari have busted their ass ensuring I take quality trophies. Willem Debeer and Cois my PH have been incredible i hunted in Eastern Cape before leaving for the Free state and am currently in the Kalahari, headed back to the Eastern Cape in the morning. It has been a lifetime experience and have made new friends and hunted multiple camps and stayed in multiple lodges. Just cant say enough about my experience and the quality of this hunt. Just wanted to share the harvest to this point I fly out 7/24 to come home.

Will do, and will post on next flight into dallas. But the trophies taken are worthy of Debeers diamonds. Monster greater kudu, monster cape Kudu, over 30" roan with 10.5 bases, 44" sable, 30" golden wildebeest, big warthog, 43" heavy hard bossed dugga, and zebra with a black impala for icing.

It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

Nice kudu. Looks like a great trip.
Details like rifle, scope, shooting sticks, bullets, range of shots etc would be great
How ere things in SA now? All the chaos, riots restricted to large cities?
thanks for posting

I will get stories together on each the buff was 375 and the rest 300 win. The media is making a lot more of the riots and chaos than reality traveled all over south africa with zero issues.
