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

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.
