You can book double buffalo, happens all the time.
Last guy in Zimbabwe I shared camp with shot 3 in the Save and another 2 at CMS (Dande)
We both added a second buff at Dande as Buzz had quota. It was at elevated trophy fee because we both were doing 7 day hunts, and the local council gets a split and they want the same money as if it was a longer booking.
I shot a tuskless as my primary( frontal brain at 12 yds) and spent the next 5 days hunting buff, twice as close as 20 yds inside herds. It was awesome even though we didnt take anything as I was going to be a bit selective because of the elevated fee. Could have taken an OK bull on 2nd day.
On first hunt with CMS I did take a buff add on after a tuskless, that report is on here. Again elevated trophy fee but under the same 7 day hunt rate.
But they just happen to have quota at the end of the year ; I wouldn’t count on it as an add on.
If I was going to do dbl buffalo I’d book 10 days to give plenty of time to hunt hard. Dont bargain shop! Book with guys who keep floating to the top, look at some reports here and see how the crappy hunts went.
Charlton McCallum gets high marks from me (and plenty of others) as they really have their shit together for logistics and run a good outfit with top quality PH’s. But there are plenty other good outfits for what you’re looking for. Done a bunch of plains game in South Africa and Namibia, and hope to go again, wonderful time; ain’t nothing like buffalo or tuskless on a huge concession; YMMV.
