Since I am new to all of this I know I am a bit naive but I kind of assumed that outfitters made most of the profits on trophy fees? This seems like to me a place where margins can vary widely depending upon various factors. So if I see a place with very good prices and a decent reputation I assume that the profit margin for that outfitter is much better. So I could see someone deciding to take a loss on the daily rate to be competitive if they can easily make up for it somewhere else.
Is that anywhere close to reality?
I cant do it that way. With the current trend in breeding colour variants all over the EC even the prices I pay for the common species have escalated dramaticly. Many game farms have jumped on the colour variant wagon and have converted areas normally inhabited by common species into M&M breeding camps. Indirectly hunters will be paying for this trend to continue. Cant speak for Limpopo or the other provinces.
