Since I have never hunted with your outfit; I have certain standards that I will not compromise when it comes to recommending any outfitter!!

Since I will be hunting color phase springbok and a few other animals with you in 2025. Could you add a video or 2 of what I can expect. ie. the terrain, the quality of animals, amount of animals I will see, the class of animals that a new client can expect to hunt. I'm not after record book animals. But I won't pass up record book animals. If I'm going to rank your operation as an outfitter to hunt with, I personally want animals of quality. I want those I recommend to your outfit to expect the same as what I have hunted and know record book and quality animals exist on your hunts. Without Put And Stalk or ear tags/ ear tag holes.

Greatly appreciated.

Having the privilege of guiding this lovely family on a cull hunt, both the young ladies hunted their first animals today, they both made perfect shots on blesbok females at just over a 100 yards, note the blood on their faces its a tradition in south Africa that first time hunters wear a little blood on their face after a successful hunt,

Rifle used was my trusty 223 howa with Nightforce scope

We getting a few more cull hunts done before our trophy hunters arrive, because of the low rainfall this year we are culling some females out of the herds to help them survive the long winter ahead of us,

The hunters in the pictures below came to play and test out a 338 Lapua rifle and do some long range shooting,


The Wildebees cow below was hunted at a range of 460 m with 338 Lapua the open areas can provide some fun long range shots!

This golden Wildebees cow was hunted at a range of 300 m

The longest shot for the day was a blesbok cull at 550 m , i sadly did not get a picture,


It was a great hunt and very much look forward to our next clients next week,
 
Got a jackal with headshot this morning on trigger cam 223 rem with Nighforce scope!

Got some bass fishing time this weekend before our next clients arrive!

I like the Tillie in my picture. They are supposed to fit loose (2 fingers inside hat band), have mesh for cooling, and hold their shape after washing.
