I am interested in a specialist limpopo hunt for big bushbuck please.
Ive hunted a bunch of east cape rams, but my favorite hunt has been in kwn midlands where i got an ancient black rowland ward ram.

I am looking at June 2026 for a hunt focused on the longer horned limpopo bushbuck and would like to know the best place/hunting farm in limpopo for exceptional bushbuck and dedicate 4-5 days hunting bushbuck mainly. Will take multiple rams but really want a chance at a record book limpopo bushbuck.

Will hunt any exceptional impala and kudu i come across but focus is bushbuck.

Could someone recommend a hunt?
  • I would like a classic riverraine area stalk hunt and to walk all day - i do not hunt anywhere near a vehicle!
  • Would like to rent the rifle - moderated if possible
  • Have been on 5 previous safaris so have hunting experience in ZA and many other countries
Thank you,
Ali

I can help with this if you wanted. I have two Kudu bulls left on Waterberg Wilderness for 2026.
We only hunt 5 a season: this season our smallest bull off the reserve was 55 1/2 with two bulls hitting 60” another at 58” and we have one more to go.
This to be hunted on Waterberg Wilderness.
My personal property about 45 minutes away is a bushbuck Mecca connecting with a ram in the 15 - 17” range is a distinct possibility.
Good Impalas in the 23”+ range are always around.
Your preferred hunting method align with ours.
Feel free to give me a shout I have a comprehensive reference list available.
Best always
Jaco

Gerhard Pretorious with GP Footprint Safaris sent me some pictures of animals earlier this year and had a dandy bushbuck on camera. You may reach out to him @ +27836313015 or contact him directly on email at outfitter@gpfootprintsafaris.com . A group of 4 of us hunted with him in '23 and had a great time harvesting impala, nyala, sable and wildebeest.
 
Found the pictures Gerhard had sent me.

I have shot a few good ole Limpopo Bushbucks. The much older bushbucks usually have very little hair on the face, lots of scars, and often the hide is unusable. I euro mounted a few and I am hoping my last big Limpopo bushbuck will be tannable. It is at the tannery. There are some huge bushbucks in Limpopo (15 -18 inches). Good luck in your search.

The guide told me they will sometimes shoot younger bucks to get better mounts/hides. Bushbuck is my favorite hunt.

P.S. -They will charge you when wounded!
