Dennis - good luck! Please post some pics when you can. Sounds like you will be sick of airplanes and deep in the bush when you finally get there.

Royal - Very funny! I was going to ask if Bill C could make a suggestion if Dennis needed any help. LOL!

Daytime sightings of leopards as we checked baits for 5 days, then shot mine as we woke him up sleeping next to the blind one morning going into set in the blind, he was sleeping next to it, seriously right next to it....Trip back was 32 hours in planes and airports no overnight stops on the trip one long haul...Contact me if you want an almost guaranteed leopard hunt for next year they have 3 avail that's all when the word gets out these will be gone in days.....SOOOO many leopard in this place they don't even bother looking for track to hang baits, you hang them they get hit....and NEVER were any hit by females. ALL males....my hunt or the hunt before me.

I saw over 2,000 buffalo , 1,000 impala, 1,000 puku, dozens of Elephants 50lber the biggest on my trip. I've never in 10 safari's seen SO MUCH QUALITY GAME ! NEVER ! Shot my 40" buff 2 hours into the buff part of the hunt.
No fences and the hundreds of square kilometers borders the national park on 2 sides....
