Dedicated To Our Trackers

[K-man]

All trackers I have met were extremely talented, but the two that stand out the most were Obert and Stamford with Save Safaris in Zim. I shot a blue duiker in the shoulder at 200 yds. They offered, almost pleaded to go after him in grass just as tall as the duiker. They found him three more times that day with no blood trail at all.

No words can describe the dedication a good tracker will have for a hunt. Neither of these two would let me help in any way carry this bushbuck down a mountain side.

First excellent post. They are deffinatly the unsung hero's. One of the things I always admired about Capstick was the respect and credit he always gave to his trackers/gun bearers Silent and Invisable. My hats off to all of you for giving credit to these fine men. I cant wait to see them in action for myself!

Hartzveiw, loved your point about how the dog found the wildabeest and the the hunter could finish him, some PHs are to quick to shoot and not let the client finish the job!

Jeff with Hartzivew we always try to give the clients a chance to finish their own animals as it is their safari that they are paying for and not the PH's free for all to shoot.... When necessary we do HAVE to shoot from time to time but we always try our best to have the client finish his own animal. The 2 dogs certainly make it much easier with this and I will say 99% of the time the client get the chance to finish his own animal which is much more rewarding for us and the client himself!
