Good day all and all the best for 2017.
Now that 2017 is upon us I have made the decision to head to Africa on a Dangerous Game Safari. That being said I thought I should take advantage of the collective knowledge base here on AH and ask some preliminary questions.I am not a first timer to hunting in Africa as I have been on two successful plains game safaris in South Africa, however I have a few questions to help me get started in the right direction:
1) First of all I am undecided about whether I want to go for Cape Buffalo or Lion. Opinions on what you think would be best for a DG newbie?
2) Does SA have free range buffalo and lion?
3) What other countries in Africa should I be considering for DG?
4) I have not made a decision on an outfitter as of yet although my last outfitter does do free range DG.
5) I will be in Vegas for the SCI conference so I am open to meeting with outfitters and our hunters who have been there, done that to discuss.
Any help would be much appreciated.
