Hello gang, I'm a long time lurker and have finally decided to become a site sponsor and offer some exceptional hunts. This first one is really something: The offer is for plains game in Botswana. Hunting can be done by either bow or rifle. Kanana is 100,000 Acres of privately owned game farm situated in pristine Kalahari Bushveld roughly 250km SW of Maun, Botswana. The property holds an over abundance of game. The land has been largely Eco-tourism for the last several years and it is now going back to hunting. All accommodation is full board in Motswiri Lodge - the luxury tented safari camp situated in the heart of Kanana Wilderness. The packages are: PACKAGE 1 9 nights of Accommodation � so 8 full hunting days 1 Eland 1 Kudu 1 Blue Wildebeest 1 Red Hartebeest 1 Gemsbok (Oryx) 1 Zebra 1 Impala 1 Warthog $ 6495 Or PACKAGE 2 5 nights of Accommodation � so 4 full hunting days 1 Kudu 1 Zebra 1 Gemsbok (Oryx) 1 Blue Wildebeest $3695 Observers at $200 per day - However, we are trying to facilitate an opportunity for hunters and decision makers of the future to come and experience an African Safari so if you have a son/daughter or grandson/granddaughter (under the age of 18) that you would like to bring over with you, there will be no charge for them at all for the Safari and I will add in a non-trophy Gemsbok (Oryx) and Warthog for them to hunt at no charge. INCLUDED IN PACKAGE PRICE: Services of a licensed Professional Hunter/s Tracker, skinners and driver Accommodation, meals, drinks and alcohol for duration of the safari Transport to/from the airport in Maun Hunting vehicle(s) Hunting permits where required Rifle import permits Preparation of trophies and delivery of trophies to local taxidermist Daily laundry Botswana Tourism Levy 12% VAT EXCLUDED IN PACKAGE PRICE: Flights to and from Maun Airport, Botswana, including airport taxes Taxidermist, packing and shipping fees of trophies Any gratuities (obviously at clients discretion) Accommodation expenses before & after the trophy hunting period Sightseeing excursions/trips other than on Kanana Wilderness Any Insurance and medical expenses of any kind Any additional trophies at our published trophy price Please review my website under the BOTSWANA section for some recent trail camera pictures and more information. www.huntingforadventure.comTom Addleman (816) 213-6646 www.huntingforadventure.com

Wow!! If this is for real (and I have no reason to think it's not) those are great deals. What about the rumblings of hunting being shut down it Botswana? I'm leaving for a hunt in Zim in two weeks so this year would be out for me. Can these be booked for the '13 season and beyond? Also, can additional days be added?

So far as I know regarding a shut down, it only applies to the Okavango Region.

You bet guys. These hunts can be booked in 2012 or 2013. The dates are starting to fill but there are still a lot of good dates left. Not trying to be salesman or pushy...but if you are serious don't wait around on this one.

I've been looking hard, and after a couple of add ons, this is my dream hunt for a first time plains game Safari. I'm like a kid waitin' for Christmas now!
Thanks Tom, Jeff

Man would I love to do that #1 deal next year. Dumb question, but how hard is it getting to wherever you get to in Botswana?
It is irrelevant what you think. What matters is the TRUTH.

JGR...I cant answer for sure but last time I went that way, Maun Botswana was a simple connecting flight out of Jo'burg ( a Hub) I am guessing it wouldnt cost alot more than getting into Windhoek, Namibia...consult Steve at Gracy travel, San Antonio for a recent quote...others in the biz can provide as well...

The package price listed includes the trophy fees on the game animals listed?
If so, some additional questions for clarification:
If any of the game animals listed in the package are not taken, is there a refund given on the trophy fee?
Substitution of game animals allowed? In other words, if say for example an individual has no interest in Red Hartebeest or any other animal on the package list, would a credit of the trophy fee for that animal be given to apply towards a different species or a second trophy animal??

In other words, if say for example an individual has no interest in Red Hartebeest or any other animal on the package list, would a credit of the trophy fee for that animal be given to apply towards a different species or a second trophy animal?? Unfortunately no, there might be a little room to swap out for one animal of the same price but this package is so good that there will not be much changing of the package. If you want different animals I would suggest paying a daily rate and then hunting off of the trophy fee list.

Tom, Very nice offer. Good luck to the guys who book, it should be fun! So far as I know regarding a shut down, it only applies to the Okavango Region. As I understand it, after this year hunting in Botswana will basically end with a few exceptions. There will still be some elephant hunting in government areas. The other exception is private areas such as the one in Tom's offer.
