Hello everyone, good morning/night, all right?I'm from Brazil and haven't done a hunt in Africa yet, but I like to study about it,I wonder if there is any requirement besides being of legal age and knowing English to take the PH course? And I'm sorry for any mistake in my English
And sorry if I ended up putting this message in the wrong thread
 
:S Welcome:
 
Welcome to AH! Your English is just fine. I believe the PH school in South Africa is open to anyone who can pay the tuition. @BRICKBURN would know the answer to that question. Having said that, if your intention is to be a licensed PH in South Africa and if I remember correctly you must be a citizen of the country to get your license. There are other countries such as Tanzania that allow foreigners to PH however.

Pick your school (there are several) , pay your fees, English or Afrikaans is required. Go to the classes, study hard, take the tests and pass.
Then you'll have to deal with the government and an Outfitter to get access to a position.

There are plenty of threads on AH, on the subject. Do a search.

Good luck.
 
In my book both English and Afrikaans need to be learned if you are not fluent in both.

On both my hunts in South Africa none of the trackers that I had with me spoke much more than a few words of English, and I am sure that is the same way with most.

Thank's for all replys, Im Very busy with my course in this month but i trying to get a time to Reading more about this Topic in the forum
 
I can't imagine being a PH and not speaking Afrikans. That's how they communicate with trackers and property owners. Interesting that my PH now has a tracker from Zimbabwe who does not speak Afrikans or Soza (?) but speaks English fairly well. I like it very much because I'm no longer the odd man out during their strategy discussions when we're stalking. Most of the other trackers have little or no command of English language ... or sometimes they pretend to have no command. :D
 
Your Brazilian Portuguese language, although slightly different than the other Portuguese, might make Mozambique a better option to work as a PH apprentice. And if Angola ever opens up……….

If there's even any game left in Angola. From what I'm reading, that seems unlikely. What a mess!
 
A sua língua portuguesa brasileira, embora ligeiramente diferente dos outros portugueses, pode tornar Moçambique uma melhor opção para trabalhar como aprendiz de PH. E se Angola alguma vez se abrir……….
Yes haha, the Brazilian portuguese is Very different than others, I'll do a reserch about this schools in mozambique

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.
