SOUTH AFRICA: First Safari Hunters Hill Safaris

[traviselmore]

My first Safari was back in September. I hunted with Huntershill Safaris in the Eastern Cape and had a great time. I wanted to share a few trophy pics and hope to add some information on the hunt in the days to come. Of all the animals I was blessed to harvest the Red Hartebeest was my favorite and I am told that the bull I took was a very big hartebeest. I have trouble on judging hartebeest and haven't received my trophies back yet, but wanted to see what you all thought of him.

Nice pics. Don't know much about Hartebeest either, but it looks like they were all nice. I really like the wide Kudu, and nice Bushbuck. And from my limited knowledge that is a huge Steenbok. Congrats on a great first trip,
When you going back??

Great trophies. I’m looking at going with them next year, how many days did you hunt?

I hunted 7 days, but had 10 of the 11 animals by the end of day 4. The kudu took a couple of days because it was the end of the season and most of the big bulls had either been shot or were hiding out.

Yes I was at Rockland for 3 days but didn't take an animal there. I was only looking for Kudu at that point and we couldn't find anything big. I took my Kudu about 20 minutes from there on a cattle farm.

Thank you. Looking to go back in 2019 for Lechwe and Nyala plus black wildebeest, black springbok, warthog, common duiker, baboon, white blesbok... and maybe a couple other critters if they show up.
