First time poster, long time lurker from Utah. I’m booked for my first Africa adventure for May of ‘24 and couldn’t be more excited! My son and I will be headed to SA for plains game, possibly a cape buffalo too if the stars align budget wise.
I’ve spent most my life hunting waterfowl, elk, deer, antelope, and other big game in Utah and the adjacent states, but have never done anything comparable to an Africa trip. My 9 year old son drew a ewe Rocky Mountain sheep in New Mexico last year. He made a great shot and is hooked. I lucked out and also drew a Wyoming bison tag and harvested in January. For the cost of those 2 non-resident tags we could’ve had a pretty long harvest list in Africa! I’ve got a few data points for some stateside hunts, and am looking forward to swapping them for some Africa advice.
