I took my first whitetail with a bow when I was young kid and never dreamed I would be able to chase big 5 animals. My dreams have slowly become reality after taking a good buff this year. I'm anxious to wait on an elephant because they could put a stop to hunting them at anytime. Does anybody have actual archery elephant experience or have any contact information for phs that are willing to take a bow guy?
 
You might want to start with a search to find countries that allow bowhunting elephants. Most do not. I am not a bowhunter, so not much positive help from me but that should narrow your search a bit. Good Luck!!
 
I should have done that when they allowed it in more places. I always wanted to take a Jumbo with a bow. If you find a place please post it here, I would love to see what is offered and what the requirements would be.
 
Yes sir I'll do it

Talk to strangles Middleton in Zambia he specializes in bow hunting the big 5 and has take a few elephant with bow. Zambia is about the only country still doing bow hunts for elephant that I know of.
Do you need to sleep with one eye open? Autocorrect got you on this one.

Thank you! Do you know if he is a member on here?
 
Danie Geel with African bowhunting adventures can get you an Ellie with a bow. If you’re serious about it, give him a call and tell him Joe sent you. If you have questions let me know but he’s the guy.
 
Im looking into this with a friend and is open in Zimbabwe. You must pay the $1,500 dangerous game bow hunting fee, but tags are cheap (cheaper than any other free range country). For what Ive been quoted is around $24k-$27k all in. Success rate is very high as long as you dont get super picky with trying to get above 40lb. Beyond that size/weight it can get steep in price.

I would love more information on this hunt. That price range is doable.

I would love to go back to Zim and get my elephant with a bow there. Forward me any information you can, please?
 
Anyone figure out a way to bow hunt elephant in Zimbabwe?
 
Zambia-- Strang Middleton is your guy!

An excellent AH member right here! I had a fantastic transaction with Hornedfrogbbq (I was the seller). His communication was first rate, payment was extremely fast, and I would have absolutely no reservations at all dealing with him again. Thank you, F!
Here we are, the last day of the show in Denver, it's been a good show but expecting a quiet day today. I will be back for-sure to do this show next year and maybe also do the one in Sacramento California.

On Monday I will be hitting the road driving from Denver and eventually make it down to Atlanta for the flight home.

its going to be a good year!

Hi Rem280, Saw your post on getting selected for Idaho Elk. Do you have a zone(s) selected? I live in N Idaho, might be able to offer some ideas.

Cheers,

Craig
