I want a specialist in big kudu!

On balance and after seeing the so many helpful posts on this thread I think the following.
Limpopo has gone the way of the charge per inch system which I'm not interested in doing.
The area sizes and chance of newly released animals at a high price seem to be there...however small and not dissing anything or anyone. There is a demand and this is being met and hunting in one form or another along with wildlife preservation is thriving- so great!
For myself I think I'd be better off hunting for southern Greater kudu in Kwazulu natal where there is a chance of a 55plus and if it doesn't happen then fine...no worries. Its a genuine hunt that i need with the chance of genetics for large kudu being present and that too at a much much more reasonable price than what limpopo outfitters are offering.
But what about Limpopo bushbuck now if you go to KZN?

I know of a few more than 5 properties that I have been on myself personally where kudu are not introduced in Limpopo where you have a chance of a 55" plus bull and a proper limpopo bushbuck.

Considering the sliding scale would you rather spend 12 days and walk away without a bull or pay a bit more and have a crack at a good bull it makes more economical sense.
I also dont enjoy the sliding scale but if a farmer/owner wants to make sure the big ones get bigger and gets time to pass on the genes it is one way of doing it.

You are competing with local hunters also and we also would love to hunt a 55" plus bull but they are not for everyone's pocket.

Speak to the outfitter let him package you a hunt for 12 days without a sliding scale I'm sure that would be negotiated. You can even private message me and I can point you to those properties or outfitters.

You are now changing your quest for a proper Limpopo hunt due to economics instead of following your heart.
