While planning my first trip to SA Eastern Cape I came upon this great site. I will be traveling with my wife and two sons 9 & 11 years old in April 2012. I will be hunting the following plains game for 10 days: Kudu, Bushbuck, Impala, Zebra, Blesbuck and Springbuck. We have narrowed our choice of Outfitter down to three, all highly recommended.
Welcome to AH, NY hunter. You will love it here, alot of great people on this site. I too will be taking wife and five year old son to SA in June, very excited. Scott.

Hi NY hunter. All the best of luck for your upcoming hunt bringing the family with will make it all that more special. Best Regards Louis van Bergen
sounds like a great trip, the cape has some excellent animals, might want to kkep your eyes open for a mountain reedbuck, they are all over the cape and it a prety neat species.
Welcome NY Hunter You've picked the right area the East Cape is Fantastic I hunted there last year for the first time with Huntershill Safaris and the wife and I loved it, glad your taking the Family along let the wife know she will need spare batteries for the camera because she dosn't want to miss a thing.
Family trip should be a lot of fun. My cousin went when he was 12 and he still has great memories. You have lots of time for your trophy list. You found a great site and it will help you immensely. You may also find some other options for your list of choices right here..... good luck.
