From a sunny South Africa, we bid our new and our present clients and friends a hearty welcome to our 1st Bush Breaking Newsletter of 2012! It was indeed a whirl wind promotional tour that started on the 3rd of January at the Dallas Safari Club Show and ended in a grand finale, with 10 Wintershoek Johnny Vivier Safaris representatives manning 5 booths, at the Safari Club International Convention in Las Vegas. We spread our wings far and wide on this tour by also attending shows and meetings in Columbus Ohio, Atlanta, San Diego, Charlotte North Carolina, Midland Texas, Farmington New Mexico, Calgary Canada and Aguascalientes Mexico. We touched down back on African soil the 9th of February, more than satisfied with the business that we booked and what a spectacular trip was had by all, absolutely amazing!!! It really was a fun time introducing our team members, some who were on their first USA trip, to all our clients and friends at the shows. At this point in our newsletter, we want to take this opportunity to sincerely thank, all our repeat clients for re-booking safaris and we welcome our new clientele for 2012 with great anticipation. We look forward to showing you ALL an excellent and safe safari with our top notch WJVS Outfit... See you soon on African soil.

We were all delighted to welcome to Wag'n Bietjie camp, 9 members of the Rodrigo family from Spain. Our great friend and Spanish agent Tomas De Castro hosted the group and PH's Yvan Nieuwoudt and Strauss Jordaan took charge out in the sticks. Only 2 members of the family hunted, whilst the rest of the group relaxed around the camp and pool soaking up the African sun and on some occasions, going out with the hunters.
