I don't want to judge, but in Namibia is this hunting operator/PH. He's been around for a while and not too long ago in the past he was one of the biggest operators within Namibia. Don't know whether it was greed that inspired his bad practices. I lately have heard from someone who works there...

Gee, I know of guys who do culling, but your operation sure are one of the better ones I know of! Just for interesting sake, how many animals get wounded or take more than one shot? I bet not much?

BRICKBURN, I am very fortunate to live on a farm and to have so much experience at the hunting business already. Thanks for the advice Johan, its of much worth to me. To true, it takes a lot of hard work and time. I don't want to make lots of money, 10 hunts in a year will be more than enough!

Well, BRICKBURN the Namibian structures are a bit different. Don't know if you have any knowledge about it? Here it's not an actual course you have to do though there is someone who presents a short course for a few days which costs an awful lot of money which I at the moment do not have. We...

Marius, lots of young guys do it around here and it is a good way to start. At this time I am only trying to help my parents, you see if I can get business running for them it can help me in the long run, but that's not the only reason I do it. I was thinking of working at another hunting...

BRICKBURN I am going to do my PH examination this year in October. I hope it goes well, then I can start doing a lot more. There's a lot such guys that hunted at us I think. Almost all the hunters that have hunted here booked through someone else (African Days) he was overwhelmed and placed...

PHOENIX PHIL We might understand each other, except on the math part of engineering. Well, that info is kind of wrong and I don't know how come. (My first post was on 02-21-2011) And was within the first 3 days if not the first after I have joined the forums. I don't want to portray an image...

Wow! Thanks for all the insets, guys. Appreciate it. Now, I'm going to take this one by one, otherwise I might just confuse myself and you with it. Thanks for that suggestion, I've been at university in south africa for 3 years. Books ain't my kind of thing. I learn better 'on the job'...

So, I need some advice on marketing my hunting outfit. Now, my situation: I'm 22 years old and have no experience on this field. It is my parents' business and over the years they did not really do any marketing (though they're already 16 years in the business) which means no clients other than...

I think every outfitter should serve the hunter what he has shot, otherwise like everyone say, request it. It's part of the hunt, I believe. Last week a client shot a burchell zebra and requested that it be served, no one was very keen of it, because it's not really known for its meat (the...

From a standing position- Grasp the shooting sticks at the intersection with your supporting hand, so that you can hold both the rifle and the sticks. Get the intersection of the sticks a bit below shoulder height so that you can spread your own legs a little. With your body, lean into the rifle...

The other day another P.H. told me that a client of his was furious at him, because he let him shoot a gemsbuck instead of an oryx!

They want the Namibian rugby team banned from the world cup, because of seal culling. Ridiculous! Not that we have any chance to win it. My greatest enemy, you are making this a personal matter. Have you ever seen a seal in your life? Don't tell me what to do with it! Have you ever been in...

There is actually kind of a story behind the name/logo. In our district almost all the farm names are Herero names, one of the native languages in Namibia. And by far the majority of ranch names in the area starts with Oma- or Otji- or something as such. (The original farm name is Omaue) And my...

You're right indeed nsok. Sorry for that wswat, seems it works on some computers and others not. Hopefully I will have it fixed shortly, currently working on it in a different program.

Oh, yes. nsok >>> Warthog are US$ 500.00

Thanks guys, already help a lot. Bushbuck >>> Yes, that is also our site. It is a bit out-dated and someone else is currently working on it as well.

Please help on this one guys. When you as a hunter get to the website of a hunting outfitter, especially an African one (of course!)... What do you expect from the website? What would you like to know and see? I will appreciate any contributions.

Thank's for telling me. Interesting, it works on my computer. I'll make work of that to get it fixed.
