Happened upon a good price on a flight to Joberg last night and after speaking with Marius @KMG Hunting Safaris, I’m booked for October. Might as well take advantage of a good flight deal when you stumble upon one.
It is so far blown out of proportion. It’s political rhetoric that is used to stir up the uneducated population. I did a 3 week hunt in September, half the time in Limpopo and half in the Eastern Cape. Never felt uncomfortable. I just booked another hunt in the Eastern Cape for October this...
It was wild. I thought Marius was pulling my leg at first, but he was dead serious. Had to send the other guy back to retrieve our boots after we got the pig down.
I’m not going to post a long review of this hunt. I’m not great at writing and I feel the pictures tell the bulk of the story. I arrived in Port Elizabeth on 10 September 2018. I was met by Marius and we we off to the lodge. On this trip I was after Blue Wildebeest, Bush Pig, Blesbok and Red...
Sitting in a lounge at Joberg airport waiting on my Delta flight so I can head home. I have been in Africa for 18 days and have completed 2 Safaris with 2 different outfitters. I’m looking forward to getting home, but not the long flight. A great time was had and some wonderful trophies...
Congrats on a great hunt. Marius is a lot of fun to hunt with. I hunted with him last year and am going back again this fall. Looking forward to another great adventure.
Trophy quality is important to me. I do believe you get what you pay for. If you only care about the bottom line price, most of the time that will reflect in the quality of the trophies harvested. Also, I prefer nice accommodations as these hunts are also a vacation for me.
Lori @Travel Express is the best. Highly recommend. Henry @riflepermits.com does a great job and takes a ton of stress out of the entire process. I use Riocord for my medical evacuation as well as their travel insurance which includes emergency medical and dental
Back to South Africa in September for a 7 day Buffalo hunt with Numzaan and then back to the Eastern Cape for 7 days with Marius @KMG Hunting Safaris. For sure going after a Bush Pig and after that is still up in the air.
Day 10
We went out looking for an old Steenbuck Marius had seen before. We walked and glassed all morning and saw no sign of him. We spotted a Duiker and stalked him into a bush and he vanished. We decide to head back in for lunch an Lloyd spots a Duiker from the back of the truck. We get out...
Day 9
Very HOT and no wind. We walked around and saw very little. The dogs bayed up a young Kudu bull. That poor creature had no idea what to do and finally found an escape route and took off. In the afternoon we again called Jackyl. A big dog came in at 50 yards and I missed low. My bad. Did...
Day 8
Nyala again
We are now at a new farm we have not yet hunted. We spot a Nyala shortly after we arrive all the way on the far side of the farm. We make a slow stalk that way for 2 hours. The bull is not in the area we saw him in. Continue a slow walk around the rest of the area ah head back...
Day 7
Fishing
We took a charter boat fishing for Cob. I caught 2 and Marius caught a really big one. I started to get a bit sea sick and we went back in. The crew cleaned the fish and we threw them in the cooler for dinner. We stopped at the Pig and Whistle for lunch and headed back to the...
Day 6
Nyala
We walk for nearly 10 miles this day up and down the mountains. We spotted the good bull from day 1 going down the valley towards the water to drink. We decide to try to catch him on his way back up to the feeding area after he drinks. We manage to get within 10 yards of the bull...
