    10 Day Hard-Hunting Package For 2024/2025 @ EXECUTIVE HUNT AFRICA

    You mention that the hunt will take place near Steenbokpan, but your website shows that you are nowhere near there. So, this hunt will take place on another property?

    First time to Africa question

    Since I'm a bowhunter only, I've not had to worry about any of this on my 7 trips to Africa. However, I do own (as do some of my friends) firearms that are wildcat rounds and have no factory ammunition available. So, if we were to consider taking a firearm such as a 7mm TCU, that is a...

    Free Flights to Africa

    Mike B., I agree I also used to also like the Sapphire Reserve card, but I just couldn't justify the ridiculously high annual fee, anymore, after that last fee increase. And for those that are wanting to get into the points game for the first time, the Sapphire cards are paying near all-time...

    Free Flights to Africa

    buckwild, you're certainly entitled to your opinion. I've been a member of this site for 14 years, and I have hunted with sponsors of the site. I'm not a person that just signed up for AH and then posted this. I'm an official measurer for both P&Y and B&C, I've been inducted into the...

    Free Flights to Africa

    375 Ruger Fan, I have no relationship with Delta or AMEX, other than I am obviously a customer of both. As I disclosed in the first post, I would get a small number of points if someone used my referral link,

    Hunt over water; Shoot from truck

    The fact that you are even asking this question tells me that you want to get the most out of the experience. Since it’s legal across most or all of South Africa and likely other places, you can certainly do what feels right to you. It is NOT legal in most of America, so that should give you...

    Free Flights to Africa

    Your assumption is that the only people that want free flights is because they're poor. I can easily afford the flights, but why should I pay for a flight I can get relatively free? Don't most people love getting a great deal or something for free? Then they could spend the $2,000+ that they...

    Free Flights to Africa

    However, if you are determined that you need to earn more than 1X point per mile day in and day out, this Capital One Visa card is hard to beat. It earns 79,000 points (75,000+4,000) after you spend $4,000 on the card in 3 months, then you would continue to earn 2X on everything with no worries...

    Free Flights to Africa

    As a few have said above, the signup bonuses are what get you a fantastic deal on a flight with very little purchasing on the card involved, in this case spending $4,000 miles in 6 months earns 94,000 miles! That's the vast majority of points needed for a flight. Staying with the same card for...

    New US Customs policy pertaining to bows & arrows for hunting

    I have experienced the boot spraying in Atlanta each of the seven times I have returned from Africa, beginning in 2008 and every trip since. My friend that was with me in 2008 seemed shocked by this at the time, and he had been to South Africa countless times, and I believe normally returned...

    Question about websites from clients perspective, we are building a new one!

    As others have said, if there are not prices, I move on to another company. Don't make us request pricing! Pricing is the number one most important thing I look for before going any further in my research. I too like the link to maps showing the location of the lodge. Size of the properties...

    How many arrows

    For a 10-day hunt, I usually take 15-18, although I've never come close to using them all. Incidental animals & birds, follow-up shots on wounded animals, etc. can all take more arrows than expected. Although, the number of broadheads is probably more crucial than arrows since you can often...

    Deep Thoughts on trophy shipping

    Mikecatt13, you mentioned that your trophy importer had their own storage facility to avoid airport storage charges if there was a delay. Who do you use, and what port of entry do you have them come into?
