Professional Hunters' Association of South Africa (PHASA) Trophy Medal Program

Professional Hunters' Association of South Africa (PHASA) Trophy Medal Program

Overseas clients that hunt with PHASA members have the opportunity to enter their trophies for PHASA Medals and Certificates.

The PHASA Trophy Medal Program, patterned after a similar and highly successful system operating in Namibia, is based on the SCI Methods of Measurement. It was introduced primarily as a way to acknowledge the client’s success in the form of a medal / certificate, which is issued according to the size of the trophy. Clients can qualify for Gold, Silver or Bronze medals that come with attractive certificates that are suitable for framing.

Scoring Information

• All measurements are "Green" measurements without drying period except for White Rhinoceros horns which must be measured 30 days after collection.
• All measurements in inches and fractions to the nearest 1/8 except for cat skulls which are measured to the nearest 1/16.
• The PHASA trophy medal measurements are not automatic entries into any record book.
