NAMIBIA: Leopard Baiting Hunt With Shona Hunting Adventures

I had a short conversation with your brother this evening. Between the conversation and your report, I can see you both had a very well deserved good time. Congratulations!
 
Thanks for sharing
 
Thanks for posting. Sounds like you had a great time. I could see doing this type of hunt. How many zebras did you wind up killing for bait? Congrats

My brother and I each took a gemsbok and a zebra. Early in the hunt, we didn’t need much bait as they weren’t getting hit nightly. Once they started, the need went up quickly. I understand they can consume 10-15% of their body weight at one sitting. I felt like I came close to that once at a Brazilian steak house...
 
Thanks for the entertaining and informative report! I hunted with Johann in October 2019. A very good hunt even though the animals and the local people were under a lot of stress from a severe drought. Rain has since made a huge difference and the forage and game animals are looking good again. It's wonderful and amazing how the countryside has recovered. Shona hunting adventures is a well run outfit and Johann is a very good PH. Your report makes me want to go back!
 
This was a great hunt with a couple of real gentleman. Thank you for the detailed report guys, looking forward doing it again next year.
It is the perfect hunt for someone on a low budget that would like to learn a little bit more about the behind the scenes workings of a leopard hunt.
 
Hi Joe

thanks for your reply bob , is it feasible to build a 444 on a P14/M17 , or is the no4 enfield easier to build? i know where i can buy a lothar walther barrel in 44, 1-38 twist , but i think with a barrel crown of .650" the profile is too light .
