John, I have two ex-wives that would argue with you calling me " gentleman " in your your introduction, funny they called me a lot of stuff, but never gentleman? Looking forward to hunting with you and the rest of our crew, come on May 9th. Kurt

So I just went to see my local CBP agent to set an appointment for him to inspect and sign my 4457 form, and you would have thought I just slapped his mother at how upset he became with me? I had explained my form from last year was expired by the date posted, he said no it isn't, I said when...

Thanks for all the replies guys, I'm looking forward to can't wait to shoot my new rifle, and Phoenix Phil I will be contacting you for some reload information. Heading to Florida this morning to spend some quality time with my dad on the golf course.

I like your reply Charlie all sounds reasonable to me, I guess I was low on my rifle purchase, forgot add how much a buffalo hunt cost? I have Zebra, Oryx, Black Wildebeest, and maybe an Eland plus other smaller PG on my list, just have to figure out what bullets work best for what game before I...

So I bought a new piece of glass to put on my 7mm mag. took the rifle and glass to the gun shop for mounting, and then things got expensive. I asked how much it would cost me to mount and bore sight the glass, less than a $100 bucks, good please proceed, then I asked this question. How much do...

Marius, Website looks good, I like it. See you in Toronto next month, then PE in May, we are all getting excited about our hunt. Kurt

CLS, what great trophies you have there, you should be very proud of them all, nice hunt. Question did you put a tape measure to the Kudu? he looks huge! I'm hoping to find a nice wide spread bull like yours this May, on my hunt with KMG. I have a very nice Kudu the EC from my last hunt with...

Marius, what airport would we meet you at since you are located in the EC? I also noticed if we fill our buff/hyena tags we could hunt plains game in the EC, is there no chance to hunt the same area for plains game as the buff? Thanks Kurt

Marius, can you tell us where the hunt will take place and size of property we would be hunting? Also what is the best time of the year to conduct this hunt? What kind of deposit is required to hold the hunt? What would the average size of the buff we would be hunting? Thanks Kurt

I will be heading to Mexico March 1 for some sun and fishing for 10 days, then off to the EC to hunt with a guy named Marius from KMG Safaris in the middle of May. Marius might have a hard time trying to top my last trip with him. August we will be in Ontario bow hunting black bear, if I draw a...

The one animal that surprised me the most, was the Red Hartebeest never had an interest in one, they have the face only a mother could love, boy was I wrong. I took a beautiful Red in June and fell in love with it when I finally laid hands on it, hard to stalk and hard to put down. I will be...

Thanks for all the replies guys, have a great weekend.

We will be traveling from JoBerg to PE for our hunt, can you leave your locked ammo box in your checked baggage? I thought I seen where guys were made to remove and check their ammo box as additional bag. Thanks

I just got back from SA 2 week ago hunted eland, never could get the bull, but a old cow was offered as they wanted her off the property. I used a 7 mag with 165 grain safari loads, at 120 yards she just stood there after the shot, I heard shoot again, only then did she try to move limping on...

Just arrived home on Wednesday, through Atlanta, buzzed right through with my global entry, first in line at the gun clearing area, had my shoes sprayed before the next person even arrived to clear their rifle. Here's is where it got screwed up the Einstein who collected the passports to start...

Had the time of my life hunting with Marius in May of 2014, just sent him a deposit for 2017 hunt, taking 3 friends this time.

Bsto270, I have only hunted Africa once and it was with Marius of KMG safaris, he will work non-stop to give you the hunt of your life. Heading back in 2017 to hunt with him again, he has great hunting areas and lots of good mature animals to hunt.

Shoedog, glad you had a great hunt with Marius, he is the man when it comes to getting good trophy animals. I had my first hunt with Marius and can't wait to get back hunting with him, and the rest of the boys.

Gutterdoc, great report, it sure is fun hunting with Marius, and that 308 of his does a dandy job on game. Can't wait to get back there and do some hunting with Marius again.

Hormese, I can only give you one name Marius from KMG Safaris, as I have only hunted one time in Africa, and my hunt was perfect from start to finish. Everything I was promised happened plus more, Marius and the other PH's were always sharing information with each other to help you get your...

Marius, why do you do this to me, you know I want to hunt buffalo in the worst way! Kurt

So one of the reasons I like May the flights are cheaper, the money saved on a airline ticket could give you that extra animal you wanted. Also the rut is starting for a lot of the game, I shot my Kudu when he was chasing a younger bull. Hunting 1x1 makes it fun when you get back to camp at...

Sorry Brickburn but I have been wanting to go back since I left!

Ok guys I'm willing to be the first to say yes I will go on AH outfitter sponsored safari, I would like to hunt with KMG Safaris in May of 2016, So who's with me? Marius said he could go up to six hunters, I hunted with him in May of 2014 had the time of my life. Marius are you still up to the...

Thanks for the information, I thought the cheap a$$ was coming out of me. The shipping insurance from New York was almost $600 on my crate, reason I sent it to NY was my taxidermist suggested it. Dennis judging by your area code looks like you are here in Michigan, you will be my first call...

I finally got my trophies home from my May hunt in Eastern Cape, cost for D&P $1500.00, shipping $790.00 to New York, clearing agent, associated costs plus shipping to SE Michigan $1470. About $3700.00 for 7 animals, Kudu, Nyala, Bushbuck, Impala, MT Reedbuck will be shoulder mounts, warthog...

Marius, Merry Christmas to you and Kim, I'm glad I we had the chance to hunt together this year, can't wait to come back still recruiting some boys to make the journey with me. So let's talk in January, we need to lock in some dates for 2016. Be safe and take care my friend. Kurt

Hey Jim flew from Detroit to Washington DC on United then SAA to Dakar, 8 hour flight, one hour on the ground for fuel and a new crew then 8 hour flight to Joberg. I wasn't sure if I would come back home I was wiped out from being in an aluminum tube for 17 hours, I'm glad I overnighted at Afton...

Hank thanks for a great trip report, 23 days, 30 animals trip of a lifetime.

Went on my first safari in May of 2014, stayed at the Afton House spoke with a safari owner who stayed the night waiting for his client about tipping. His suggestion was, to tip the PH 10% of the total cost of the animals hunted. At least $10.00 a day for tracker/driver/cook, $5.00 day for...

I'm just now receiving my dip & pack shipment from my May Eastern Cape hunt for 7 plains game animals, D&P $1520.00, shipping to Fauna & Flora $780.00. Still don't know the clearing house charges or shipping to Michigan, then taxidermy costs of $4000.00. At this point the after the hunt costs...

Matt85, I just picked up Zeiss Terra ED 10x42, for $399.99 at Bass Pro Shop, Zeiss also has a rebate of $50.00 going on right now. the binoculars seems to do a good job in low light conditions, good luck with your search.

Adgunner, Nice animals you harvested with Marius and the boys, glad your hunt went well, waterbuck will be on my list next time. Kurt

Greyfox, Glad to see Marius gave you the same kind of hunt he gave me, you have some nice animals there. As with your warthog, I heard the same shoot that Kudu and I didn't hesitate because Marius was excited when he came out. I hope some of the information I gave you help with your trip, take...

Big Texman, Very nice animals my friend, can't wait to read the rest of your adventure. I went on my first African hunt this year also shot some very nice animals still can't believe I went and can't wait to go back. Are you hooked now? I am. Kurt

Hey Lori, nice to read your report, nice job you have some fine trophies there. Kurt

HuntingGold thanks for reading my report. Kurt

Frog Stealar, I was hunting with Marius May 21 to 29 and about the third day or so the power was hooked up and no more generator noise. The boys at KMG do a great job at making hunters happy, looks like you had some good luck, as did I. I want an Eland like yours and most likely will be on my...

Davidfbowers, Get ready to be addicted to Africa hunting your going to love it, hope you post about your hunt when you get back.

Svinejakt, Thanks for reading my report, yes I was very excited to get my bushbuck I'm very proud of him, good luck when you get your chance to hunt them. Yes I figured out it is bakkie, just didn't sound like that when the word was said, there were a few times I didn't understand what was being...

Thank you sir, I'm still one happy camper, can't wait until I have my trophies home.

Thanks Birckburn, Marius knows his stuff that's for sure, he told where the Bushbuck would come out and sure enough they did.

Rely, Like you too I just got back from my first safari, and yes Africa hunting is much tougher than expected. Although there are many opportunities at different game it's still difficult to get into position to harvest a particular animal, some of my friends are amazed at the bush not how they...

Very nice Kudu Rob, can't wait to hear the rest of you adventure.

Hi everyone, thanks for reading about my trip and all the nice replys, I see I had some spelling errors, along with punctuation errors, and I might have spelled the name of the truck wrong, bucky? Not sure. This trip was 20 years in the making, and turned out to be the best trip a man could ask...

Day 9, our routine is the same coffee and breakfast, we decide to go after Mt. reedbuck Marius says he know a good place about 20 minutes down the road. Once on site Marius is right to work, and in a matter of minutes he spots our reedbucks, now he spots these animals in what looks like a mile...

Day 8, starts as usual coffee and breakfast, out the door to see what Africa has waiting for me today. We are staying on property today looking for an Impala, we go to a nice spot to glass from, and start see different animals. We are looking in this area because Marius knows there is a big ram...
