Trophy & Non Trophy Hunt 20 Animals From US$4,500

[Hogpatrol]

I'm in for first week of July, not for the cull hunt but for kudu, black wildebeest, blesbuck, springbuck, mountain reedbuck, impala, waterhog, with an add-on nyala. First time to Africa, it'll be hard to wait another 10 months! Nick has been great to work with, I had some email issues with replies going into my junk mail folder, nearly blew it on my dates I wanted, but all good now. Contacted several of the references he offered, enjoyed speaking and emailing them, gave me a good feeling about making my first safari with Nick.
Jennifer at Travel Express has been a great resource getting airline tickets, overnight stay in Johannesburg and travel insurance squared away quickly, would certainly recommend their services.

Just start planning your second hunt. July? Take winter clothes.

Lol No kidding Hogpatrol, though I'd rather be hunting when it's cold. I do alot of field work year around here in the Ohio River Valley states, it's much easier to dress up for warmth than to try to stay cool.
I already have List #2 bouncing around in my head (gemsbuck, bushbuck, red hartebeest, etc). Cape Buffalo maybe....

Lots of rain and plenty of animals for anyone wanting some serious trigger time

I really wish I could join you, my doctors have other plans. :-(

All the best and maybe next year

My impression is that the mountain reedbuck are fairly tough to hunt. (I mean that they are elusive.) Is that correct? If it is, is it reasonable to expect to take 5 of them plus the other animals in 8 days?

My first African animal was a trophy Mountain Reedbuck I got within the first 5 minutes of my first hunt. Not far from this area. Then on a Vaal Rhebok and Aoudad hunt, also in the East Cape, the damned Mountain Reedbuck all over the place kept blowing my stalks

I'd love to cull a few....

That's a hot barreled hunt! Sounds like fun!

Warthog are the stalk blowers in our neck of the woods
