I have been drafted to organize a sheep group tour to RSA. The Dorper sheep championships are next year in Bloemfontein in early May. The group will attend the shows, visit some Dorper sheep breeders, and then have time to hunt or more likely just go on a photo safari. What might be near Bloomfontain?
Y’all know organizing a photo safari is a little out of my wheelhouse! Any thoughts would be appreciated.

There are place near there, try Avula Safaris they have properties in that area. Could point you in the right direction.
 
Try contacting Bennie Lategan, Lategan Safaris. DG,PG PH based in Bloomfontein. Ill be hunting with him this August.
 
Bloemfontein isn't near anything "great" as far as Photo safaris go, and you won't see much of the big five. I can help you with hunting in the area, or if you want to just stay at our lodge and photograph the animals on our property you are more than welcome to. We have a place in excelsior, about an hour from Bloem.

We are primarily based by the Kruger, where we could do exciting photo safaris all day long, but needless to say, that would be a 12-hour + drive, or a 1-stop flight from Bloem to Johannesburg and then to Hoedspruit.

I have been using a "Personal Property" rider on my State Farm homeowner's policy to cover guns when I travel with them.
I have several firearms, but only one is worth over $20K (A Heym double rifle).
Very interested.
Would firearms be covered for damage, as well as, complete loss?
I'll can let the State Farm rider cover my watches...

trperk1, I bought the Kimber Caprivi 375 back in an earlier post. You attached a target with an impressive three rounds touching 100 yards. I took the 2x10 VX5 off and put a VX6 HD Gen 2 1x6x24 Duplex Firedot on the rifle. It's definitely a shooter curious what loads you used for the group. Loving this rifle so fun to shoot. Africa 2026 Mozambique. Buff and PG. Any info appreciated.
Ready for the hunt with HTK Safaris
