I know many here have several safaris under their belt and have taken multiple dangerous game, but how many have taken the Big 5?

I’m guessing this is an increasingly exclusive club today as hunting costs continue to rise and rhino hunts become more elusive.

If you’re currently at 4, which animal do you need to complete the 5?

Cheers,
 
If you count rhino darting, and you should...I'm only missing the leopard. I have hunted but not taken one yet. I have multiples of the rest except for 1 lion. DG is my main interest and I will continue hunting more...mainly buff and ele.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John [redacted]

Out of all the different color variations of Impala the black Impala just stands out with its beautiful pitch black hide.

Impala is one of the animals you will see all over Africa.
You can see them in herds of a 100 plus together.

This excellent ram was taken with one of our previous client this past season.
