SOUTH AFRICA: Cape Buffalo Hunt West Of Kruger

[Alan D P]

I recently hunted cape buffalo with @MATTANJA HUNTING SAFARIS, PH Dieter Prinsloo. My hunt was very successful by day four. PH Dieter is very selective in choosing a bull to harvest. He insists on an "old" bull no longer with the herd, those past breeding dominance and therefore, hanging out alone or with other bulls in that class. I learned that type of pursuit is preferable for ethics and conservation, plus a hunter can be proud to have taken an old surviving warrior. Width and configuration of the horns never overrides hunting and taking the oldest duggaboy you can find!

I would highly recommend Mattanja Safaris and PH Dieter Prinsloo for an excellent cape buff bull hunt. Dieter is among the best PH's I've ever hunted with! I need say no more.

Dieter is a great PH and it sounds like you had a nice hunt. If you need help posting photos, we can help. I look forward to hunting with Dieter again late Oct this year.
