Gentlemen and ladies if you're here.
Just got a few questions. I've been to Africa now twice. 14 with my dad. 16 with my wife. First hunt did the whole plains game thing in S Africa. Shot like 6 animals. Wonderful time.
16 my wife and I did more plains game, bigger stuff like Kudu, Zebra and ssssshhhhhhh yes I shot a lion.
Both times I went it was cold. It was late May and mid June. I want to put a deposit down soon for a Leopard Hunt, Sable & Croc deal.
Questions....................Can crocs be hunted in Africa during the cold weather months? I guess that may be a dumb question but both times I was there it was like high 30s in the morning 75-80 mid day then back in the upper 30s or 40s at night. I've seen some people on here take great big crocs but didn't ask or know what time of year it was.
Also who would be a good trusted outfitter to take a nice Leopard and huge croc in the same trip?
Also one other question. I'm sorry........................Could I hunt a Leopard in 7-9 days? I own a pretty big insurance agency and to be honest most of the people in my office are like children. If I'm gone 2 weeks or 21 days its no telling what the hell I'll find when I come back. Just saying I can't afford time wise to do a 21 day Leopard hunt. I was thinking I could harvest a nice Sable and big croc perhaps in the same day no more than 3 days if I got lucky then spend 7-8 days hunting Leopard. Is that likely?
I tell people all the time I'm a pretty successful guy hunting & business wise because I shut my mouth, humble myself and listen to people who've been more successful than me. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
