I have hunted with Sebra six times and while the draught reduced the sheer numbers of game, there are still plenty of trophy critters available if you’re willing to put in the effort. I hunted with Jan du Plessis in July of this year and got a trophy Eland, two awesome Springbok, an ancient Warthog and passed on numerous trophy animals that I’d already bagged on previous hunts. Jan’s wife Mariesje is a gourmet cook and a sweetheart as well. Jan’s daily rates and trophy fees are extremely competitive and his camp rifles are highly accurate and allow you to bypass the hassle with TSA. Jesus saves, but Moses invests

I hope to book in January and go I hunting in 2024. I appreciate all the help. I am hoping a good experience and plan on returning in the future.

He is a young PH that loves to hunt. His accommodations were exemplary. MTG Vena dura, ocyus occide, excusas non offer!

My wife killed a Sable and i was able to harvest a Nyala, Impala and Wildebeest. The three Cape Buffalo were very tempting at 18 yards. I recommend Gerhard at GP Footprint. 5 Star Accommodations and Very quality hunt. GPFootprintSafaris.com . If you speak to him, tell him Chance sent you. Sable hunts are $6500 and Cape Buffalo are $12750 but that includes the lodging, meals, drinks, etc. Basically everything except getting over there and getting the animals back. Of course, add-on animals are allowed. Life Member Rocky Mountain Elk Foundation Life Member Safari Club International

His PH's will meet you right there at the airport Walk you through customs to get your guns Load your gear into the car Take you to camp Work their asses off all hunt long to get you your animals Take you back to the airport And when the hunt is over and they have your money, they wont kick you and your gear out in the airport parking lot, they'll walk you back through customs to check your guns, then take you to a restaurant and feed you whatever you like, walk you to your departure gate, shake your hand like a man and bid you safe travels Those guys never leave your side and do a hell of a job on it ALL! I'm headed back for hunt number three with them very soon. It was great having you back on your hunt a couple weeks ago Jerry. That was a heck of a hunt, especially that buffalo and sable!

My son and I did a buffalo/plains game hunt in September in Mozambique with Neil, and it was fabulous. Big, wild country and lots and lots of game.

Have your questions written down prior to calling and ask the same questions of each PH. Speaking with the prospective guides has always made my choice easy. Phone calls are expensive but worth the cost, imo. The difference between genius and stupidity is that genius has its limits. Albert Einstein

Great animals as well.
