New Members Getting Started

Have hunted South Africa twice, most recently I took my grandson to Grant Abrahamson's East Cape Safaris, and he has not stopped talking and writing about it. He has done a number of papers both in high school and now college, on the country, the people and the animals. I have hunted all over North America and there is no question that South Africa is more affordable and provides the greatest experiences to be found. Contact Grant Abrahamson if you want he and his family to provide you with the greatest hunting experiences you could find anywhere.
 
Thanks for the ADD! I will be looking around to get info on future hunts in Africa, and to hear stories from fellow hunters.
 
Thanks for the welcome!

Great. Thanks for the welcoming ambiance on this website. I have so many questions where can i start asking?
 
Hi, my name is Tania,

Just wondering if anyone could suggest somewhere where I can find a map of where outfitters are located in South Africa. The task of going through each and every outfitter only to find out they are a fair distance from the airport or the hunting area is very small, has been very time consuming.

Reason for this is because we are specifically looking for an outfitter located no more then a 4 hour drive from Johannesberg.

We are looking to go on a large family hunting holiday, but would like the commute to be minimal for everyone

A map on the Africa Hunting website - similar to the way google maps functions, where you can zoom in and scroll around certain areas to see which outfitters reside and operate there, would be a massive help and a very useful tool. My partner and I have spent countless hours on google researching specific areas and conservancies looking at maps, to try and find outfitters that operate in specific areas we are interesting in visiting or hunting in.

In the mean time, if anyone can help me out with suggestions of outfitters that meet the following criteria, this would be very helpful.

We are looking for a Lodge that is 4 - 5 star. Within 4 hours drive from Johannesberg. Maleria free area. Large hunting area - ie. minimum 20,000 acres + preferably not fenced, but ok if it is a 5 star resort.

Any suggestions?

Thanks,

Tania

Welcome to AH sir! 22,000 acres is a nice parcel of ground.
 
Howdy! Some nice folks on another website suggested this as a great place to learn about double rifles and African hunting in anticipation of a possible future trip (still saving the money). Looking forward to reading and learning.
