I hunted with Philip in May 2019 and had a great time. It was my first trip to Africa, it was all I could have hoped for. Go, you will not be disappointed. Here is a link to my hunt report...

Nice report. Looks like you had a great hunt. I hunted with Philip’s outfit last May and had a trip of a lifetime. Your report brought back flood of memories, I wish I was back there right now. My prayers and sympathy are with Philip and Jan for the loss of their father.

I did have a great time, it was amazing. Your input helped seal the deal with Khomas Highlands, thank again.

There are certainly some real nice kudu there you should do just fine.

Thanks, the memories will last a lifetime. I hope to add more African ones to them. Glad to see the Whelen has a following down under. It truly is a great cartridge, kills like the hammer of Thor. I will give the project thread a read.

Philip, The pleasure was all mine. I will return one day. You have a first class operation and any hunter should give your outfit a hard look before making a decision on where to hunt. I can assure them they will not be disappointed. Best wishes to all the crew. Chris

It’s no wonder the Whelen isn’t popular in Africa, it would be a handloading proposition only and the 9.3x62 is a classic there and getS the job done. I just don’t get the lack of interest in the good old USA. I’m fairly dense and I just assumed 125 as I have shot 150’s, just not on game. I’ve...

Paul, Thanks for the reply. We actually talked, for quite a while, about Khomas Highlands and your input was most helpful. I could not have made a better choice on where to hunt. I’d go back in a heartbeat. I agree on the Whelen, it is a mystery as to why it isn’t more popular. It is a...

Congratulations on a great hunt and wonderful bull. I met Roche at the Denver show this January and was very impressed. If I finally make the decision to got back and hunt Cape Buffalo he will be on my short list of outfitters.

As far as my next trip, I hope to hunt Cape buffalo and maybe Nyala or a Waterbuck. But before that happens there will be several honey do trips with my wife. The longest shot was maybe the hartebeest, 170-180 meters. The shortest was the warthog at about 80 meters.

Thanks, I had the time of my life. Back is doing fine.

Pardon the pictures that are skewed. I have no idea how to fix them. Iphone issue i think.

May 2019 hunt with Khomas Highland Hunting Safari First my apologies to Philip for the long delay in finally getting around to my hunt report. Work and dealing with back issues kept me occupied. Now that I’m recovering from spine fusion surgery, I am finding time to get it done. I want to...

RANCE SAFARIS Thanks

I hunted with Philip and Khomas Highland the last week of May this year, I cannot recommend them enough. It was my first hunting trip to Africa and I wouldn't have changed a thing. The hunt was the exact one I was looking for and I was not disappointed. In eight days hunting I took; Red...

Liam Urry Safaris, thanks for offering the opportunity.

Andy, I worked with Jenifer at Travel Express and am flying South African Airways from Denver to Windhoek through JFK and Johannesburg. On the return I’m flying through Johannesburg, a quick stop in Accra, Ghana, and Dulles. Thought about flying Qatar but it adds a day on each end. Flights would...

It has been fun doing the research and I appreciate all the advice. I have made up mind and will be hunting with Khomas Highlands Safaris in May 2019. Flights are booked and it’s all about the wait now. The next 9 months will be spent getting in better shape and practicing my shooting. Thanks...

That is one nice Kudu. Congratulations. I just got through sending an email to the outfitter I plan on using, trying to decide on dates. Late August or early September sounds like a good time to go. Although I’m not so much concerned with it being cold when I go as I live in the Colorado Front...

That is a possibility and had seriously considered doing that when I was looking mostly at South Africa. My budget jumped a bit when I chose Namibia and she offered to let me go it alone knowing this hunt is my dream.

New member here, first real post other than introduction. I’ve finally decided it’s time to head to Africa. I plan on hunting Namibia in the Khomas region in either May or September 2019. The weather should be nice both times of the year, mostly likely similar. May is the Kudu rut, big plus...

Thanks for kind welcome. I’m looking forward to doing and the research and planning.

Good morning. I joined the forum a couple of weeks ago and am just getting around to introducing myself, more of a lurker than joiner. I hunted a lot when I lived in Texas but not so much since I moved to Colorado but I still get out now and again. I’ve always wanted to hunt Africa and have...
