Aah the search for big kudu! I am considering Namibia next for this eternal quest. 25 years, 5 safaris and 7 kudu bulls across limpopo, east cape and KZN in South Africa so far. The bottom line is regardless of size kudu are just the perfect big game animal and a joy to hunt. The more one gets...

Limpopo Bushbuck

I am interested in a specialist limpopo hunt for big bushbuck please. Ive hunted a bunch of east cape rams, but my favorite hunt has been in kwn midlands where i got an ancient black rowland ward ram. I am looking at June 2026 for a hunt focused on the longer horned limpopo bushbuck and would...

I am interested in a limpopo specialist hunt. Ive hunted a bunch of ecape rams. But nothing compares to kwn midland rams where i got a rowland ward ancient ram. I am looking at june 2026 for a limpopo ram and would like to know the best place/gamefarm in limpopo for exceptional bushbuck and...

I hunted the natal midlands and got this 15.5" bushbuck - my 4th and best so far. I love the dark bbucks in kwn & ecape. But now am looking at hunting near Rooibokraal rd limpopo in 2026 june. Any recommendations for bbuck while I am there would be welcome. Impala and bbuck are main targets -...

I Fully understand and appreciate what managing wildlife populations on a limited area entails being a breeder of game birds and having read botha and other texts on game ranch management extensively for my own work. The prices in limpopo however are now very high for kudu putting the species...

It seems increasingly often that queries regarding hunts get taken over by the question of fence sizes and put and take hunting. To me its rather simple. South Africa is what u make of it. If one wants to pay alot and just get an animal that can be arranged, if one wants to shoot from a bakki...

54.5 inch kwalzulu natal 2023. It took 23 years to find a kudu like this. The only larger one ive ever seen i injured and lost. It was the first animal ive lost in over 90 big game animals hunted so far. Still addicted to kudu, bushbuck and impala, still always thinking about the next hunt for...

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...

yes, that is exactly what im after. i want hunt the rut. the main purpose of the post is to identify the best possible area where there a healthy population of big kudu occurring naturally before i decide which outfit to go with .

Hi, I am interested in areas (Thabazimbi?/Limpopo) and hunters/outfitters who specialize in big (55 inch plus) Southern Greater Kudu. I would 10 -12 full days hunting to ensure we have enough time to find such Kudu. Other species Id like to hunt are Limpopo bushbuck (important) Impala I...

Since the videos tell the story, ill summarize by saying passed up on many good kudu bulls and had given up until the second last day when we ran into the bull we had seen upon coming back to tugela. Saw him from far away and knowing how skittish he was planned the stalk as carefully as possible...

28.5inch nyala

54.5 inch kudu

The next morning we were rained in. We managed to get out after lunch and made our way to a beautiful hilly property of rolling farmland and marshes. We saw reedbuck everywhere. When the sun finally appeared in the late afternoon we were setup with spotting scope and coffee and saw a superb...

The same evening we came upon another big kudu. We stalked it through some thick stuff and I got a shot at around 80 yards. Unfortunately I hit it high. We flowed it up until dark and the sinking feeling set in. Over 70 or 80 animals hunted I've never lost an animal. We had hopes to find it the...

We had a stalk for blesbock the same evening but didn't manage one and that wrapped up a successful 2. Had a great evening by the fire with Evan and Ryan on the braai. The next morning saw us driving thru vastly wooded hills and valleys and emerging out on a savannah type.freshly burnt area. The...

im unable to load my pics..it keeps saying problem encountered. tried jpeg and gif...can someone help please ?

After the first day of familiarizing myself with the area we were to hunt in (Tugela) I was excited because as always my main interest was in kudu. Ryan was my stand in ph for the day as Evan was to join that evening. The kudu were there in numbers and rutting hard. I was suprised to see the...

Just finished a superb hunt with Evan Couzens of Umziki safaris. Beyond expectations in all respects. Will be adding pics and video to this thread going forward. Cheers everyone.

that sounds excellent thank you so much

These are some the kudu, nyala , rbuck and bbuck ive hunted over a few safaris.

I do love fishing and have targeted species from trout to black marlin and yellowfin tuna. In kwn if i can get a day tiger fish would be a priority. But this trip is mainly for specimen size kudu, nyala and reedbuck. Yes the outfitter said Nottingham rd is just home base with travel for most...

Hey everyone, hope everyone is getting by well in this difficult time for the world. Like many of you I’m sure - my hunt in Africa has been delayed from April 2020 to either May or Aug. 21. With this extra time to review my planned safari, I would like to get some feedback on whether I’m on the...

I ve hunted 3 bbuck in ecape and am totally addicted. After kudu theres no question about not hunting bbuck. So far any mature ram has been great - I too love the dark coats and brighter markings on ecape bbuck. Im hopefully off to KWN next for big kudu and definitely bbuck. Any advice on KWN...

Ive hunted africa 4 times and taken 50 plus trophies. Other than vaal rhebok have taken all the species mentioned above multiple times. I have never bothered with inches before and have been happy to take any mature animal. There are certain species i simply enjoy hunting ie kudu, bushbuck etc...

Ive hunted some nice kudu over 3 safaris and many years. All kudu are nice to hunt. I am interested however in a 55" plus kudu and am willing to put in the days for it. Ive hunted a number of places in ZA so far. Prefer the largest possible area so fences are not a hindrance to the hunt. Other...
