Rifle Hunting

Southern Africa’s diverse landscapes and abundance of wildlife make it a destination for those seeking to experience the thrill of the hunt in the beautiful Kalahari deserts, the bushveld of Limpopo, the mountains of the Eastern Cape, and even the forest areas of KwaZulu-Natal.

One of the key draws of rifle hunting in Southern Africa is the opportunity to pursue a wide range of game species. From the majestic Sable and Kudu to the elusive Leopard and the mighty Buffalo, hunters can test their skills against some of the most sought-after animals on the continent.

Our home base is in the Kalahari, close to the Botswana border, in the North West Province of South Africa. Our Kalahari concession is known for big free-range Kudu and some of the biggest herds of Buffalo and Sable. With more than 30 species available to hunt in the area, makes the Kalahari concession is the perfect spot for first-time hunters to Africa. For those who completed most of the Kalahari plains game, we also have concessions available in Limpopo for a change of scenery as well as concessions in the Eastern Cape for species such as Cape Bushbuck, Grey Rhebok, Mountain Reedbuck, and many more.

In addition to the thrill of the hunt, rifle hunting in Southern Africa also provides the opportunity for conservation. By participating in sustainable hunting practices, hunters contribute to the preservation of wildlife habitats and the maintenance of healthy animal populations.

Through carefully managed hunting programs, local communities also benefit from the economic opportunity and resources generated by hunting tourism.

Bow Hunting

Bow Hunting is a challenging yet rewarding sport that has been practiced for centuries.

It requires a great deal of skill, patience, and precision to be successful. It’s a constant learning process, as each hunt presents new challenges and opportunities for growth.

The thrill of the hunt is another aspect of bow hunting that keeps clients coming back for more. Tracking game, setting up the perfect shot, and finally releasing the arrow with precision and accuracy is an exhilarating experience.

At our hunting concession in the Kalahari and Limpopo, we make use of ground blinds, elevated blinds, and in some cases, tree stands as well. Our blinds are situated close to waterholes with the average shooting distance being 25 yards, which provides a real close-up experience. We also make use of the walk-and-stalk method although this method requires a little bit more skill and precision with the average shooting distance being 60 yards.

There is a unique satisfaction that comes from successfully harvesting game this way, knowing it was done with skill and respect for the animal.
