Most of the pics of the Outfitter headquarters on here look like resorts. Let's just say you are on a 30 day safari, Buff, Leopard, plains. What would you say the average number of nights are spent at HQ and how many in "the bush." This is assuming it is a reputable outfit with considerable land.
Leopard at nite…in a blind. The rest of the time at the Lodge..you travel by Bakkie, not by a sting of 100 natives carrying the supplies for thirty days on their head as noted in the1930 Tarzan movies. The tent bush camps can be very comfortable in Moz and Zimbabwe, for the evening retreat. 30 day safari is not the norm and available for a few with very deep resources.
Your question makes sense with respect to South Africa and some of Namibia. A dangerous game hunt in the Caprivi, Zim, Mozambique, Zambia, or Tanzania will be conducted in the bush. Normally, usually, most of the time, there is no "lodge." "Headquarters" is the hut or tent where the fire pit is located and supper is served.
Many South African destinations do indeed try to recreate that experience - with WiFi and commercial power of course.
Had an excellent classifieds transaction with JoninCO. A truly honest and standup member. I wouldn't hesitate at all to deal with him again. Thanks, J!
Hi Lance, Hope you well. I collect Mauser rifles and they are very much part of my cultural history in Africa. Would you consider selling the rifle now a year on ? I'd like to place it in my collection of Mauser rifles. Many thx
I saw where you hunted elephant with backcountry safaris in Zimbabwe.
Was looking to book an elephant hunt and wanted to know how your hunt went
and if you would recommend them.
I'm new to Africa Hunting. I would like to purchase a Heym 450-400 double rifle. I'm left-handed but would prefer a non-canted gun. Is anyone in the community considering parting with theirs?
