Hi Everyone, New to AH and really African hunting in general. I am a life long hunter but have never had the funds to consider Africa (although with some research I've found it can be affordable). With a recent job change I've been afforded a some additional vacation time and a LITTLE spare change. I have a two week window in September (is this short notice?) that I have likely decided to spend in Africa. That said, this is more of a vacation but I love to hunt too much to not book a hunt while I am there (want to get the feel for the hunt and definitely plan a future more elaborate hunt). I will be by myself and would like to take 3-5 animals but I am unsure of the time needed to do this. Realistically, to fit in the remainder of my vacation a 5 day hunt would be my maximum. In general, I prefer the most traditional experience possible (and the bigger the property the better). I also acknowledge that with what I'm looking for (accessibility for a shorter hunt) I won't be headed to the deepest bush of Africa and spending 3 days in search of one animal, but I would assume a happy medium is out there. I am just getting started looking (and love the process) but it is clear this will be the most overwhelming hunt I have tried to plan. I'd love some advice and comments in general about recommended provinces and it would also be great to start making some outfitter connections as the google list is never ending. Thanks in advance for the help and here are the 5 animals I think I want to consider in order (but subject to change).
- Kudu
- Gemsbok
- Zebra
- Warthog
