You might have edited your post on the PH in the Bubye. I know the PH and is a wonderful person and a fmaily man and runs a succesful business in Zim and just doesn't want the attention that the internet offers, the ugly kind.

Charity can track anything even in the thick stuff. He is also a great companion on a hunt. Have spent many days with him chasing Buffalo. Knew you would have a great hunt, the Conservancy is a great place and you had a good PH in Kevin.

No. A 375 double and a 375 bolt action would be a no. I can't bring a 300 RUM and a 300 Win on the same permit. One person carry one one the other.

York Lodge is also a very good option. They also cater to hunters and is the place I stay with family or business.

Go to the Falls

Uganda seems to have what I'm looking for a Scrum cap. Have had great success with very old buffalo in the Lowveld Conservancy in Zimbabwe and am going with Dave Langerman again to Niassa this July. Hunting L7 where Derek Littleton guided a hunter to the 2025 Rigby Dugga Boy award winner.

Heading to Niassa with Dave for the second time in July. Has some additional areas we are going to hunt looking for a very old Dugga boy. The Luwire areas are where Derek Littelton took the 2024 Rigby Dugga Boy winner. Took Leopard in Daylight several years ago. Definitely a place to go and...

The plainsgame are in recovery mode and there are efforts to bring them back to prior levels. Currently its a primarily Buffalo hunt destination and if you want I really nice Lion I would encourage you to go there and help the plainsgame. Numbers are not as good as 10 years ago, but not as...

Kevin is a fantastic guy and you will enjoy hunting with him. Went looking for pictures of him on one of our family hunts and found he is camera shy. Always on the top of the list for second PH, sorry Kev but Dave remains number 1, Petrus and Dylan are in the mix as well. Knows the Bubye well...

Dave Langerman is in the Bubye and in the past two days and has seen 30 different Dagga Boys in that time. The bush is green and thick but no problem taking an old bull today. Charity and Thomas are a great team, one can track anything and the other has hearing and eyesight second to none.

There are plenty of Buffalo on the Bubye. Plainsgame are slowly making their way back after a few down years, but then Buffalo, Lion and Leopard are the main attractions on the Bubye. The bush is thick this year but you will see lots of Buffalo and get in close. Been in September and did...

Hunted Bubye several times late May into June. Which PH and which camp?

Never had an issue with my tufpack in SA or anywhere. If you can only have firearm related items then by that view you cannot have removable foam. Clothing is used along with a soft bag to keep the firearms and related sporting equipment from moving around. You cannot put your gun into your...

Which hunting Block in the Niassa are these hunts? What is the charter cost into camp?

Unfortunately nothing in UK 9 = US 10, but a UK 8.5 might be close. Have a Frontier and a Warrior. The Warrior is in Hippo. I can see if I know someone who is a US 10 and have them try it on.

I have a collection of new old Stock Men and Women's Courteney Boots and Vellies up for sale at some really good prices. Most of this is the Westley Richards collection they let go in limited sizes and models. Courteney will honor their warranty. Once they are gone they are gone. One pair...

That interview was Dave, he doesn't play to the camera or try and be more than he is. An excellent PH, person and a pleasure to hunt with. IF you are at Atlanta or Nashville stop by and talk with him in person. 1069 in Atlanta and 310 in Nashville.

You cant do much better than Dave for a hunt whether it is in Zimbabwe or Mozambique he will give everything he has every day. Born in the bush he is not only an excellent PH but a flora and fauna expert, a part of the African hunting experience not to be missed. Brought up in the tradition of...

Know of a group in there right now and having a great hunt, no issues. Military presence in the eastern areas with regular patrols.

I go through Atlanta frequently and have missed flights over the past two years because they close the departing gate 15 minutes prior to departure. They don’t care and will not hold the door. Past two weeks have had arriving planes held short of the gate as no one was there to operate the...

Mariri is the conservation and educational center for Niassa Lion Project and benefits the community. No hunting out of that camp but they do anti poaching. I believe it is across the river form Kambako about 15 km from the camp.

Once this clears up and becomes stabilized, I’m going to take the opportunity to book my Niassa hunt with David Langerman for this year as I will be able to pick my preferred dates. If it still is dicey then I can always postpone.

You can never go wrong spending time with Dave. A wonderful person, besides being a fantastic PH. Hunting those old Bulls is a fantastic hunt. Especially in the thick stuff with Charity and Thomas working the track sometimes for hours.

I hunt with David Langerman in the Bubye usually on a ten day non trophy for two Buffalo and that typically is a decent deal given the number of old bulls. It is a higher daily rate than a 7 day non trophy. Have hunted the Save and have enjoyed the Bubye over the Save for Buffalo.

An exceptional PH and an even better person.

Have a shipment coming from Zim and being told it will take approximately one week to clear my trophies. there are two kudu and 2 Eland in one crate. In the past it has been one day. I make dangerous goods shipments that clear in a day.

Contact David Langerman or John Sharp. There are a couple places in Zim that might be what you are looking for at a reasonable rate.

Isn’t AES for Export? So traveling with guns that you return with does not apply??

Mack Air! PM me and I’ll send you the contact details. Assume one of the southern conservancy’s, number of people would dictate the plane choice

The conservancy has a limited quota of Nyala but we have seen some fairly nice bulls over the years. Last trip I managed to take a nice one and this year my son was interested as this is done in some of the thickest bush, in an area he took a good bushbuck previously. First three days between...

We saw elephant most every day. Right now there seems to be a higher concentration in certain areas. A few bulls in must which always makes for an interesting encounter. A few years ago a number of bulls died as a result of a rat Bourne virus but there are still plenty around.

Have loaded my 275 with 160 grain but will not attempt to take an Eland with it. Used a 416 on Eland just recently. 275 and 270 took wildebeest and Kudu this past trip.

Gifts are Gifts and are not a replacement for cash. In Zim I put my tips in an envelope with each persons name on the envelope and then hand that to them personally. The family then handed out gifts to each person. In Moz the Lodge staff tip was handed to the owner and the PH let the staff...

Took the Family including the two grandsons and hunted the Lowveld Conservancy in Zimbabwe in early June 2024 with PH’s David Langerman, John Sharp and Petrus Kok. My third trip into the Conservancy and for most of the family their second. My wife stayed home and took care of my pointing lab...

Samanyanga, but did head up to Malangani to do some fishing.

Just returned from a 10 day Family hunt in the Conservancy with Dave Langerman, John Sharp and Petrus Kok. Will work on some details but we had a fantastic time even in the thick brush and some cool windy weather. Main quarry was two buffalo and Nyala. Day 4 as usual produced. Double Dugga...

Plane took off after a delay because of a passenger wanting to get off and the bag needed to be retrieved. Take off was smooth and when the pilot started to climb after init takeoff the plane dropped. He said we had an electrical issue and we spent next hour plus burning fuel. Made an...

Looks like Airlink and JNB are likely the cause for the change. Accepting only firearms and related items in the gun case. Delta is not entirely specific also allowing firearms, shooting equipment and tools, and you can package your firearms in a hard sided piece of luggage. Does this mean...

Can you tell me what this new rule is regarding Tuffpaks? Is this one person stating this or actual policy.

We have done the Vic Falls thing twice, once the wife and I with Hwange thrown in the other with the kids and grandkids. Both times I used some local people from the Falls who are in the travel business. Chris and Liz Worden Foot Steps of Livingstone The Hotel for a stay but at a minimum...

I second the Conservancy. Taking the family for second time in June for double buffalo. My wife does not hunt so we spend afternoons on plainsgame and finding the big 5. We are also in our 60’s, have done the SA thing and prefer Zim. Only a few spots left next year which should indicate the...

Have not hunted Chamalaya but have hunted in the area around that camp. Like all camps in the conservancy they are very good. Who are you hunting with and when.

You will not regret that option especially in the Conservancy.

Dyers is a great camp. Centrally located excellent buffalo

Had a Ranger with us in the Nyakasanga when it was the auction area but on any of the private lands including the Save and BVC have not had a ranger along. Agree with do things by the book.

We are in the Conservancy early to mid June. Another lovely camp. Took a big Hyena in Chamalaya.

Nengo and Samanyanga are the two, we have visited all the other camps looking them over with the exception of the camp in Malangani. This year we will spend time in Samanyanga and Malangani, and at least an afternoon out into the local community. My Wife loved Nengo as she could sit and watch...

If you have the opportunity to take your Parents and Wife and do a Buffalo hunt in Zimbabwe go and go to the Conservancy. You will have a great chance to see the Big 5, stay in a very comfortable Camp and everyone will have a great time. The area is over 800,000 Acres. If you head to some of...
