    SOUTH AFRICA: BOWHUNT: Black Death With A String & A Sharp Stick

    Gerry is spot on! I too, have hunted all over the world and these accommodations were amazing. Coming back home to microwave meals and PB&J sandwiches was rough. (Don't tell my wife, I told her we were roughing it.)

    SOUTH AFRICA: BOWHUNT: Black Death With A String & A Sharp Stick

    "Black Death with a string and a sharp stick". That's the description I heard or read somewhere along the way for bow hunting a cape buffalo with a bow and arrow. I thought I would share my story just as a bit of entertainment and a little education. I was hunting with Blackthorn Safaris in...

    SOUTH AFRICA: BOWHUNT: Amazing Bow Hunt In The Free State

    Bow hunted in The Free State area with Blackthorn Safaris and Outfitter Alex Goss. The best walk, spot, stalk, crawl, sneak, and peak hunting of my life. I am a hunter. Bow, gun, long range, etc. This Ranch has opportunities for it all. I harvested this old bull, a 43+ inch Sable, a magical...

    ZAMBIA: RIFLE: BOWHUNT: Buffalo Hunt In Zambia Review

    I put a call into my bow shop to ask. I know they added pipe cleaners to the arrows to increase their weight. I got great penetration, but it was a terrible shot. I just got lucky and hit a major vessel. I'll report back once I hear from them.

    ZAMBIA: RIFLE: BOWHUNT: Buffalo Hunt In Zambia Review

    The bow set up for the buffalo resulted in a 75 ft-lbs set up The people at Broken Rack Archery in the Cincinnati, Ohio area set it up for me. They've set up other bow for people who have killed buffalo, so they just took my bow and made it work. I wanted a 30 yard or less shot so as to ensure...

    ZAMBIA: RIFLE: BOWHUNT: Buffalo Hunt In Zambia Review

    Yes. Someone from the safari company met us at the open to the public area and on the return. But the airport police took me and the bow case behind the security area and separated me from the safari rep. They insisted that she was no allowed back into the “customs” area. I don’t scare easily...

    SOUTH AFRICA: Returned From My Hunt

    Glen Boyd did not have fire places. Kubusi did, but no wood the first night. I'm not sure about why no hot water, I actually walked across the camp and showered in another cabin one night. Not bashing on Kubusi at all. We went to South Africa to hunt and had an exceptional hunting...

    SOUTH AFRICA: Returned From My Hunt

    I booked a trip for my 16 year old son and I through EAI Sports (Ed Rymut). Ed is the booking agent that I used in the states for a hunt with Kubusi Safari in South Africa. While I was researching the trip I couldn't find a lot of information on the agent or the outfitter so I wanted to...

    Need advice on trip to Zambia

    We will be in South Africa at the Tinga Private Game Lodge four 4 nights, Zambia at the Waterberry lodge for 2 nights, and Botswana at Muchenje lodge for 3 nights. I just got the itenary, so it looks like Zambia is our shortest stay and may be tough to schedule something. The other areas...

    Need advice on trip to Zambia

    My wife has made plans for a family trip to Africa leaving this week, with tourist type activities in Zambia, South Africa, and Botswana. She has made no plans for me to hunt while in Africa. To me this is like taking an avid golfer to Scotland and not letting them play golf. I work a lot and...
