I dont know of any laws in Zambia stating it is not legal.
I will ask a friend who is on the Zambia Sports Fishing Association committee tomorrow morning.

Exactly!
The outfitters don't like to talk about it, but they've branched out and even fishing is high fence now, amd as you can see, small area.
So when you see "guaranteed to catch" beware!
Thanks!!!

Meant to get back to you earlier on this, spoke to a friend and he reckons there is no law against bowfishing here in Zambia.

Hi Roklok
I read your post on Caprivi. Congratulations.
I plan to hunt there for buff in 2026 oct.
How was the land, very dry ? But à lot of buffs ?
Thank you / merci

Chopped up the whole thing as I kept hitting the 240 character limit...
Found out the trigger word in the end... It was muzzle or velocity. dropped them and it posted.

2,822fps, ES 8.2
This compares favorably to 7 Rem Mag. with less powder & recoil.

I know that this thread is more than a year old but as a new member I thought I would pass along my .280AI loading.
I am shooting F Open long range rather than hunting but here is what is working for me and I have managed a 198.14 at 800 meters.
That is for 20 shots. The 14 are X's which is a 5" circle.
