My Outfitter & PH Dempsey Bayly with Bayly Sippel Hunting Safaris suggested I consider hunting the Tiny 10 while in Moz since the Gaza Province had Suni hunting available. After much consideration, I decided to give it a try. So happy I did! I was able to successfully hunt 3 of the species. Already planning to hunt another area in 2026 trying to take more of these little antelope. Fun to hunt and the back straps were very tasty too!

I hunting Suni, Sharpe's Grysbok & Common Duiker.

Share some pictures if you have them.

I have taken only a steenbok. But they are fun. An east cape trip for them would be my preference if I went back to east cape.
 
Some people have trouble with leopards. It took me three safaris in two countries, and God knows how many days to finally take a blue duiker. I was determined to only take a male and do it with a rifle while stalking one on my hind legs. That dream was finally realized in Zambia at @spike.t magnificent Takeri.

The tiny ten are special.

I like big Kudu, Red Stags and Eland.

Tina has no interest in anything except the little ones. This is her Duiker and Steinbok.

I love hunting them. I’ve posted before that one of my biggest mistakes on Safari was ignoring them on my first safari to Mozambique. I had opportunities for red, blue and bush duiker, suni and oribi but I only had eyes for the big stuff.
I have rectified this somewhat by taking bush duiker, steenbok and klipspringer. I was contemplating trying for a sharpes grysbok in August but they are a little too expensive in RSA. I should have tried for a cape grysbok back in 2018 but ran out of time.
