Great stuff! Welcome to the Eastern Cape! You'll have a great time with Two Waters Safaris. Had a few beverages with them at a show in Raleigh, North Carolina.
Good people.

That will be a fantastic trip. Done that several times and I'd do it a hundred more.

Well...what a hunt, pics to follow when we return to the states. Final tally: (1) Kudo bull, (1) Zebra dry mare, (1) Gemsbuck bull, (1) Impala ram, and (1) Springbuck ram. All mature representive trophies, no tape measures for me, although Brian states the Gemsbuck is a very good animal for this area. All taken spot and stalk on foot, the Kudo and Gemsbuck in particular left me exhausted and headed to bed early after dinner.

Couple of quick observations: Two Water Safaris is a family operated venture, focused on fair chase, and a quality and challenging hunting experience, there were no gimmees. The food, accomodations, and comraderie have been exceptional. Brian and Cheryl Seady run a qulaity, small, intimate operation. My wife and I highly recommend you try them. We've already booked for next May cool

Was you Kudu an East Cape one, or the Southern one. Ones the grey one and the other tends to more brown and horns more straight up, though spiraled.

Cape Kudo, brownish skin, still very hard to spot in the scrub cool The buggers remind me of whitetails...the one I took allowed us to walk by and have a smoke, if the tracker hadn't looked back, he'd of snuck out behind us without never knowing...
