    Most Fun Plains Game to Hunt....?

    For me it's Kudu and warthog... I think another will be Waterbuck once I shoot one! Lol

    Animal you wouldn't hunt

    For me it would be a lion. That might change some day, but I'm not sure I could pull the trigger on one.

    Shoot too many animals?

    I ended up with 17 and that's only because my PH put the brakes on me!!! I still have Gemsbuck, Sable, Waterbuck, Nyala, more Kudu, Lechwe and Mtn Reedbuck on my want list. I'm sure there will be more. Likely a few color phase critters too!

    Shoot too many animals?

    I had 7-10 animals on my dance card originally. I ended up with 17... They took credit card!! Lol

    2 x Cape Buffalo and Kudu Packages - South Africa

    Great Kudu! We hunted with Ricus last year. First Class all the way. You won't be disappointed!

    FREE RANGE Eland & Kudu...

    They can both jump the average game fences so in theory you may consider them free range... Like our moose they'll clear 8' fences. Have seen it happen.

    Two 40" Gemsbok and Three 6" Steenbok

    Ya sounds a bit far fetched...

    Most Expensive Hunts Worldwide

    Yes but we have RIDICULOUS wait times for some animals and if you're a non resident you can buy the tag... Not speaking of the handful of ministers tags. Native 'sustinence' hunting is another BS thing we have in Alberta...

    Most Expensive Hunts Worldwide

    Yep that's hunting in Alberta... Great if you're a non-resident, but for the locals it's not great. If you are from out of province and have money it's better than being a resident.

    Hunting packages and pressure to shoot more

    If it were the case when I was hunting I would have shot a Nyala, a Waterbuck and a Gemsbok over and above the animals I took on our hunt. Our PH's were great and we had no pressure to shoot anything at any time.

    How much does it usually cost to go on a hunting trip in Africa

    Prepay or overpay your credit card, then get another one just in case. You'll need them!!!

    SOUTH AFRICA: Home From Our First Safari

    I had to represent!! :-) I have a few pics with shirts and hats. I left hats and shirts for the guys and trackers as well as some other stuff. They really were a hit. Next time I'm going to take that, as well as leather gloves (or Mechanix gloves) as well as jeans, Carharts and boots for the...

    SOUTH AFRICA: Home From Our First Safari

    We found a decent Blesbuck by himself one day. He was bedded across a large meadow and the wind/cover didn't really lend itself to a stalk. We got as close as we could and hunkered down in behind a Blackthorn bush. I ranged the ram at just over 400 yards and we decided to sit, wait and see what...
