Booked my flights to Namibia for a Cape buffalo hunt in Early September with Kowas Safaris in the Mahango Camp.

Flying via Frankfurt.

Sadly it is only a hunting trip, Covid requirements killed the touring plans.

I will in the same general area( eastern Caprivi) chasing buffalo the first week in September.

JD I arrive in Windhoek in the AM September 1.

What outfit are you hunting with?
Posted By: jdollar Re: Booked my tickets - 06/17/21
Hunting with Karl Stumpfe/Ndumo Safaris, traveling via Doha, Joberg and Kasane.

JD; very cool. Have a great time abs please let us know who the hunt goes.

Taking my 32 yo stepson along on his first ever hunting trip. He’s really jazzed about it. If Karl has any leftover own use elephant quota left, might shoot one.

Pictures and stories will most certainly follow.

I've hunted with both Karl up in the Caprivi for "Own Use" Elephant, and down at Kowas with Dani and Ansie. You'll both have great hunts!

Pictures and story to follow..... When you headed back, Biebs?

GRF. Good luck!

I strongly suggest trying to get a flight from Windhoek to the Caprivi. A 12 hour road trip after flying a day and a half around the world is way more fun than a man with a surgically repaired low back should have to endure.

AB; there are no flights at present since Air Namibia went tits up. There is a company who has applied to take over some of the air Namibia routes but they are waiting on government approval, being Africa who knows when that will happen.

The plan remains if flights to Rundu are available in time that I will take it.

That’s why I’m flying to Joberg, on to Kasane Botswana. PH picks me up there and we drive acros the border to the Caprivi- 4 hour drive to camp.
Posted By: GRF Re: Booked my tickets - 06/22/21
Makes sense.

I’ll see if that could work for me.

GRF;
Top of the morning my friend, I hope you and your fine family are well and keeping cool enough.

That's certainly something to look forward too. Very cool! cool

I shall look for photos and a hunt report when you get back - if you're so inclined.

All the best to you all.

Dwayne
