I am in the beginning stages of looking for a bongo hunt in '23 or '24. There is not much data out there. I have communicated with Congo Forest Safaris and at least know about Mayo Oldiri. Clearly, with the cost, I don't want to make a serious mistake. Any advice would be most appreciated. Thanks ahead of time.
 
I hunted with Northern Operations Africa and could not be happier. My PH Peter Wood and I had a great Safari and I got an old ancient Bungo on day two.

Doesn't Christophe Morio do bongo also ? He used to be a sponsor here- maybe still is

Following this thread- starting my research too!
 
I know this is several months old but I’m following as well.
 
 
The bongo is the most beautiful animal on earth in my opinion. I had to have one. Things have changed since I went five years ago. Good luck on your search. Make sure to be as prepared as possible for the heat and humidity.

I have spent 61 days in the forest hunting at least half of that with just me and the pygmies. I would be glad to give you some helpful information. I hunt and spend all year in the woods in Louisiana which is harder than the Cameroon forest.

Things have changed....for better or worse?
 
Mayo Oldiri is a wise choice. Congratulations

Made it to Augusta Georgia yesterday for a meeting, hunt bookings are looking good for 2026 and 2027, had a great time on our Alabama safari shot a rutting deer at 200 yards with 7mm PRC near Huntsville and then headed on to Butler Alabama and semi guided my first deer ever shot a very nice broken off 8 point with hunter there and spend a few days on 1100 acres hunting preserve awesome place!

I am righthanded, so not interested in the rifle, but I have a 375 RUM and 350 gr bullet loading data is very hard to come by. If you could reply with information regarding your loads I would greatly appreciate it. Thank you, Ray Boone, Leavenworth, WA

Hello - I was looking at your post from several years ago regarding the Winchester 300 H&H. Any chance you still have the lefty M70 300 H&H for sale?
Thank you, Mike
