Hi all!
We are now inside a week from getting on the big Qantas flight back to the green hills of the Eastern Cape. We have 7 full hunting days planned, chasing a variety of plains game.

For me personally this will be my 5th African hunt, and my 4th with KMG. My target this time is a mature Sable bull, plus maybe one or two others...we'll see what Marius and I can scratch up.

But just as exciting is that I have 5 Australian first-timers with me; 4 hunters and one observer. I'm really looking forward to sharing in their experiences!

I'll keep this thread updated as best I can along the way!

Cheers for now,
Tim

That looks vaguely familiar!
 
Nice one Tim and crew.

Love the excitement in the lead up to a trip.

Looking forward to the updates from another top notch KMG adventure.
 
Excellent! Cant wait to follow along with you all
:D Beers:
 
We'll we've made the long haul to Africa Sky and their fantastic hospitality. As per usual I can't sleep, it's 3am currently....

One cancelled flight, and one lost bag to deal with thus far, we are hoping the latter may show up in East London later this morning! Looking forward to caching up with the KMG team very soon. ;)

We 'll visit Livingstone / Vic Falls for 3 days and 2 nights. Back to Mapcha by car, back to WDH with Airlink (grab my rifles and belongings) and the same day back to Frankfurt.
What do you mind from your own experience ? and your wife .? Did she appreciate ?
We already hunted Namibia in 2022, May for PG near Outjo for 8 days. Great country.
Thank you for your advises.
