Thank you Serapa for a wonderful hunting experience!

Everything was perfect: from the magnificent lodge and chalets, to the equipment used. PH CJ and his tracker were amazing, very professional, knowledgeable and accommodating.

A 3 hour plus walk and stalk in the bush was rewarded with a very nice, mature buf, who was accommodating enough to die after one shot within 50 yards making the retrieval very easy. A sable was less nice, leading to a very tense search in the dark, where the tracker and PH showed their skills to the max.

Lots of eland, wildebeest (black and blue) and gemsbock on the property, along some beautiful sable and giraffe.

The accommodations and food are the best we have experienced in 7 African safaris and the place is ideal for non-hunting companions, especially wifes and/or kids that can enjoy the spa, pool and impeccable service.

All the equipment and vehicles are top notch and if a guest does not bring its own riffle there are excellent ones available topped with Swarovski optics. Makes traveling a lot easier and less stressful.

Congrats on a great trip. How about some pics?!
 
Dittos on the pics. BTW yours was a pretty condensed version of a Buff and Sable hunt. I'm sure there is more to the story. Let's hear it please.
 
Congrats. Yes, Serapa is a nice place, I was there in 2010

A bull to be proud of! congrats!
 
I was there last year. A beautiful place that is also very large. I think over 50,000 acres

Love your rifle! I'm needing a heavier rifle for Africa. Sold my .375 Dakota Safari several trips ago. Would you have any interest in a trade of some sort involving the custom 338/06 I have listed here on the site ( I have some room on my asking price. I also have a large quantity of the reloading components and new Redding dies as well as a box of A-Square Dead Tough ammo.
