Hi Jacques, Where we live (Milibizi) has very poor signal and at camp there is almost zero. Many people have tried calling on whats up, but it just not seem to work. Whats up text does seem to work at Milibizi. Also we will be in the states during the month of August. Not sure where you live?

This combo hunt is about the best priced hunt on the market, why someone has not snapped it up is a surprise to me. Right now we have fires going on in the nearby National Park, that coupled with the fact that N.P. may have resumed their shooting buffalo for rations has really driven a lot of buffalo into our area. The leopard are always there, it is just a matter of outsmarting them.

Sorry if I missed it....what are the date ranges for this offer?

 

[Graham Hunter]

I didn't see the dates either. Also you obviously fly to Vic Falls then what?

 

[tarbe]

Hey @Bullthrower338 What say we book a second safari as long as we are in Zimbabwe...we can have Sharp fly us up to Binga on the 27th...we'll do a HALO jump into Lon's camp.

We'll flip a coin, one hunts little foot and the other hunts cat.

The dates are open with the exception we are planning on going to the states for the last half of August and maybe early September.

Yes you fly into Vic falls.
We pick up and return to the falls, no charge,
Normally, due to the time you leave the airport we drive to our lodge on the Zambezi at Milibizi, 2/2 hr drive. You spend the night (at no extra charge). WE DO NOT DRIVE AFTER DARK (except in the bush where it is safe)! Then to camp which is a 2 1/2 hr drive. On return to the airport we can either leave very early or reverse the driving order.

We could split the hunt at with an increased daily fee, I feel much better if this is a 1x1 hunt. The daily fee would be very reasonable.

How about having John do a military jump low altitude, clear, open hit ground, less problems with high winds, besides John could get a better look at his old hunting grounds, where he was king!

Where is little foot? At the moment we located one large herd, one small herd, and two good dagga boys. No sign of little foot, if he is in the park, he has three major threats, Lions, Poachers and oh, National Parks rangers!

If we feel he is gone for good we will post immediately!

I’m in! Not to far off of my bucket list hunt of jumping into the middle of the Bob Marshal Wilderness and hunting elk, even have an LZ way pointed all I lack is time and money!

Our two rangers Nicholas and Albert located him with another dagga boy today 24/06/19. For those of you that have hunted him before he is just to the west of Gavvy Springs down low. This is about two kilometers from camp!

Lon - I wish I wasn't paying off a kitchen renovation and going on a river cruise this fall or I would have booked my tickets. Look forward to the pictures from whomever takes you up on this fantastic offer. John

Well, there goes that idea...we are in the BVC 15-27 August.

Hi Tarbe,

If you serious about the dates arrangements could be made. Normally my wife and I act as support to the PH. Lou Hallimore will probably be the PH. I would have another couple who would running the camp and acting in a support role. Please give me your thoughts.

Trust me both my wife and I wish we didn't have to go stateside.

Cheers, Lon

Hi Jacques,

Yes we will be in Colorado mid August to early September. Other than arrival and departure western slope only.
March in the falls would be fine if we are not hunting ele at that time, but we still do pick up return to the falls.

Maybe see you there?

C'mon Tim and Cody you stepped in it now Buck Up!

This is killing me!!! What a cool offer! To target one specific bull in a wild place, what a challenge!

We have two Hungarian hunters coming in October one will take the "little foot offer". We know exactly where he is feeding, watering and bedding. At the moment he has a buddy with him. We do not rate the chances of the hunter taking this particular buff at any better than 50%. There are plenty of dagga boys and plenty of heard bulls available at the moment, but only one "little foot".

We thought we had a trail cam picture of "little foot", but after having our rangers examined the picture it turned out to be another bull with a snare on his hind right leg. We will let everyone know when he is taken and with the clients permission we will give his email address for him to furnish photos! If we get a picture of him alive we will immediately post it, he is going to be a good buff.

Lon Denney,

Fantastic offer!
If I wouldn't of just come off a leopard hunt and not going to Asia in October, this would be right up my alley.
Dang!

To everyone interested. The hunt will take place in the Mucheni conservancy, which is our hunting concession. We first became aware of "little foot" when we wre building our camp. He would bed down at night within 25 meters of one of tents. He would always come after dark and leave before dawn. Next he moved to a location about 100meters in front of our tents. Again going unseen, except one morning he decided to sleep in (a cold morning) two of our rangers ran into him, all three of them departed in different directions. He next moved to an area about 400 meters below our camp, this area is much more open and has mud pans. We installed trail cams in hopes of getting a picture of him. We got one of him staring into the camera. All you see was his eyes! He promptly left that area. We have had several hunters try to take him and only him. Only one has ever had an opportunity to take him, unfortunately the client was hanging back talking to his girlfriend! The PH could not get the client to move up and shoot!

I certainly hope to get a picture of "little foot", we know from people who have seen him that he is over 12 yrs old. 75% of the time he is a loner, the other 25% he travels with another bull, body wise he is huge, he is very arthritic and has difficulties geMtting up, but once he does he can cover ground. He has a small range and appears to only drink around midnight to four in the morning.

In one way I am rooting for "little foot" as Brickburn stated, but it will not be to long before either nearby lions or hyenas will have him. I prefer a hunter that will really appreciate this buff for what he is. We know he is in the 40s. We showed our rangers a mounted 42" buff they say he is much bigger, but I would not confirm that!

Many people come to Zim to hunt buffalo, not many come to hunt one specific buffalo!
