I am sure this has been discussed at some point but in my searches I don’t see anything answering my question in the last 8-10 years. Does anyone have any feedback on what Sable hunting is like in the Eastern Cape? More specifically is it a true hunt (I realize they are mostly large fenced...

In 3 months I will be going back to the Eastern Cape for a 10 day hunt with my wife and son. The problem I just ran into was the bullets I have been reloading are Woodleighs and unobtainable now. What I have to work with it seems are Swift A Frames which I have used with much success in other...

My son and I are going to South Africa next April. I am planning to use my CZ550 in 9.3x62. Developing loads for this purpose I am considering using the 250 gr Barnes TTSX bullet. I have used 286 gr Woodleigh RNSN in the past for other game. My long winded question is do any of you who have...

Hopefully this Covid mess will be behind us shortly and we will all be able to get back to hunting overseas. We had a trip planned for South Africa that was cancelled due to Covid. We are rescheduling that when things are ok. My question is how much more difficult or longer is it to get to...

This is definitely a newbie question. I received my crate of trophies from South Africa yesterday and am ecstatic to be able to get them on the wall. I received some skins however and I dont know the best way to get the creases out of them wherr they were folded. I assume it is something easy...

I have seen many articles and discussions about shot placement. What i cant seem to find is approximate average sizes of species hearts. Specifically Impala and Blesbok. Why would you need that you ask? I am taking my wife to Africa again and this time she will be hunting with me. She is a...

Our long awaited first trip to South Africa is almost here. We fly out next Saturday. Thank you everyone on this site who have been such a wealth of information. I wouldnt feel prepared without it. I do have what i hope will be a final question. How does the PH determine which animals on...

I am sure this is written somewhere but i can not find it. My son and I are flying to South Africa for a hunt in May on South African Airlines. We will have our rifles in seperate locked cases but are wondering if it is allowed to combine our ammo into a single locked case. I have tried to...

I was wondering if anyone here has added a bird hunting day to their african hunt and if so did you feel it was worth it?

I apologize ahead of time for posting a similar question to my earlier one. I have taken your advice and decided to take only one rifle to South Africa in May. My question is what are the real distances i can be expecting to shoot st Eland, Kudu, zebra and Blue Wildebeest? I ask because i...

I am going on a 12 day hunt in South Africa with Blue Cliff safaris in May 2019. I am bringing my .416 Rigby for the Eland, Zebra and Blue Wildebeest and .300 Win Mag. for everything else on my list or that presents itself. To be honest the Eland is my only real desire and then whatever else...
