We’ve spoken about them in the past and I believe you may have been the one that originally referred me to them a few years back when I first started looking for a bear hunt. One of the statements you made was that it was some of the most vertical terrain you had ever seen. [emoji15] [emoji15]...
The closest town is Lillooet and the area they are in is referred to as Chilcotin.
Thanks for the fitness advice. I started hiking with a weighted pack and stair climbing immediately after booking the hunt. I walk a great deal as part of my normal fitness routine. I’m trying to stress my legs...
A couple of weeks ago I received an email from Andre with BCTMO. The intent of his message was to try to bait me into agreeing to go on my first ever mountain hunt with only 30 days notice. Of course he was successful and I’m left here wondering if I’ve left my senses. Wondering how these...
Congrats on booking it and good luck! Make sure to practice shooting off sticks, use riflepermits.com, listen to your PH, and make sure to slow down and enjoy the simple events during the days.
Just finished this book. A worthy read for sure. The author hunted elephant in Mozambique from the mid 1930’s until commercial hunting was closed in 1953. In that time he accounted for over 1000 elephant. Several of which were over the magical 100 pound mark. His largest was a great specimen...
The Harvest
The story of the locals coming out to harvest elephants is one that I’ve heard from several people, however their words did not prepare me for what I witnessed. It was one of the most humbling scenes I have ever had the pleasure of seeing. The men immediately set to breaking the...

We spent the remainder of the day visiting the local communities enjoying their company and distributing nearly all 5 pounds of the candy I had brought along.

Thanks it was a great experience. The air travel was exactly what you would imagine. Some of the members of the crew were pretty adamant about everyone keeping their mask on and others weren’t really worried about it. I got used to it pretty quick.
I did try a small piece that they boiled there on site during the recovery. It was pretty much like any other boiled, unseasoned game meat. Chris had them set aside some of the meat from the temple for us. He marinated it overnight it in his special Jongosi Media marinade then cooked it for us...
Khomas Hochland
After our early success in Bushmanland we traveled to a private farm in the Khomas Hochland region for some plains game. Jacques had another client hunting leopard there, so it allowed him to host both of us in the same camp. The property got my attention since it had a number...
Observations from the hunt and the remainder of my time in Bushmanland
- First is the fact that we found an elephant walking down a main road. Seriously?!?!
- During the stalk our party consisted of nine people.
- He fell less than 20 yards from the road. The recovery must rank among the...
Once again let me apologize for the delay. My holiday responsibilities are finally over and the family is all gone. For those that I haven't lost here's more of the story. I'll get the final chapter up tomorrow.
