SOUTH AFRICA: Aussies Invade KMG Hunting Safaris

[Tim Blackwell]

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

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.

Good luck! Jet lag can be tough, I was same way this past trip.

Bundy rum and TimTams you beauty . As a good Queenslander Bundy has been my preferred tipple since I was a 13 in cattle mustering camps . With Coca Cola if it is hot and with milk if the weather is cold . Be careful with the Overproof . Enjoy your hunting .

Best of luck Tim…. Keep the updates coming. Can’t wait to see how you go!
