    I just returned from a retirement trip hunt with Harry Nel and Garry Pretorious in the Limpopo Province with African Arrow Safaris. To say this was an epic hunt would be and understatement. This was my 4th trip with AAS. I went looking for a Cape Buffalo, Roan and a Sable and when my wife...

    Anyone with a reccomendation for SA plains game hunt?

    If you are wanting to bowhunt, African Arrow Safaris in the Limpopo would be my recommendation. Hunted with them 3 times and the trophy quality of his animals are second to none. Harry also has opened a rifle outfit called African Bullet Safaris, totally separate concessions. His family owns...

    Are Nyala or Bushbuck hunted from hides?

    Questions from a rookie.

    Brickburn gave some great advice, but I would add, if you are going that far and spending that much money on flights, then I would definitley make the most of it and shoot some more animals. Just beware, Africa with a bow is very addicting!

    What to do when your walls are full of trophies?

    Not sure what I am going to do. I enclosed my back patio and turned it into my "trophy room", but it is full now and I still have a 345" elk to have mounted and the 4 animals I shot in RSA in Sept, a lioness, a klipspringer, and 2 bushbucks are going to be full body mounted. I know that my...
