Cull Hunt Botswana

[JamesJ]

With most of the big game hunting in Botswana now closed there is still plains game hunting available on privately owned farms. One of my hunting outfitters has a huge ranch there and he has a few openings for some cull hunts. Trophy hunts are also available there as well. This is a great opportunity to see a new country and get some shooting in without breaking the bank.

Hi James,

How far is this ranch from Lusaka, Zambia.

 

[English Hunter]

is there a chance that this can be 1x1? Another question is it 7 days hunting? I have never hunted Botswana and this hunt would be ideal for me and my new 375.

English hunter,

[Masuza]

so whats the quota for the cull animals and are we allowed to keep the meat ?

 

[English Hunter]

Thanks for confirming the day rate for 1x1. is it 7 days hunting and what dates are available?

These type hunts are very interesting to me. As noted above its a good way to get in a lot of shooting.

CAustin,

the cull hunts are a way to get years of experience in a single trip. I did one in Australia a few years ago and it was unbelievable. Especially shooting the big stuff. Bullet placement, follow up shots on the go reloads, things that are hard to practice for in a training environment.
