I'm the hunter who hunted 3 times with Phillip Mafuta and posted a long post last year August (?) which I can't find. There were dozens of responses. I clearly outlined my experiences, shared my successes, and provided proof of his cheating with organizations, lying about having the dangerous...
Did plains game in SA. Leupold VX 5HD 4-20. Only one shot less than 200 yards. Most 300+. I was 7 for 7. Must have high magnification! Rest is 2ndary. Had the ballistic coefficients dialed in to 800yrds. Loved hearing PH say each time, Nice shot Grant.
No. Just dip/pack and shipped. Use taxidermy where you live. Easier to monitor and repair if ever needed. Processes in USA are different from many places in Africa.
Still in Bulawayo. Using Collett's taxidermy, Outbound Exporters, and Trophy Shippers in Chicago. Collett is waiting on one form from the bank in Bulawayo. Hopefully they will be shipped this week?
I have hunted two times in the last year and a half in Zimbabwe. What is being said is bogus! It is SAFE to hunt in Zimbabwe! Wore camo every hunt! NEVER felt unsafe!! Not one time. Folks at airport most kind and professional. Have 4 copies of your paperwork and they will smile! Have taken 2...
I just finished a great hunt with Leloma Hunting Safaris that is run/owned by Philip Mafuta. Simon Dzingai was my PH. Simon was excellent: took a leopard, dagga boy and zebra. Blew my chance on a beautiful kudu. Not sure what the previous post is referring to about Philip but I am already making...
I am so honored to post this picture of my dagga boy, with my father's knife on the boss that was later used to work on the buff and with the Sauer 202 375 that my son bought me as a retirement gift. At 40 yards, I took one shot through the shoulders and lungs from a 300 grain Federal A Swift...
Thank you everyone for helping this "rookie", "newbee" sort this out, especially since I didn't mean to create a stir. Thank you Frederik: it is my first buffalo song. Hope to honor my father who took a cape buffalo in the 60's hunting in Tanzania. I will be glad to post a pic of it in a 6 weeks.
I am hunting cape buffalo this May. Only finding Federal Premium Cape-Shok Rifle Ammunition .375 H&H 300 gr SAF and bought 2 boxes. I read one needs hard nose for back up shot but can't find any. What I am reading on this forum is SAF is good enough. Reactions? Advice? My son just handed me a...
Would love the forums response to recommendations on hunting cape buffalo locations. Several outfitters are offering deals on any size. Africa Sun Safaris is one. Thoughts?
