Damn good offer.
This would be an interesting hunt.
 
Go for it Wayne! You need and excuse to go back!
 
Thanks guys. Just been told by a friend that the airfare to SA - Port Elizabeth return us $ 800-$1200 with SAA.
 
The reserve is 17 ooo ha or 65.63 square miles. Only the buffalo is available. Other plains game is available from our main lodge including free range kudu.

Just booked to port Elizabeth $1081.00. Great offer by the way. Is this only available for 2016?

Is this offer available for next year also?
 
What is a range for trophy size on these buff?
 
For free range buffalo this is a great price!
 
Agree, should be a fun hunt as well with that much land to cover!
 
Sweeeeeeet. At some point, in future hunts (fingers crossed).... I'd like to hunt different parts of Africa (i.e. Limpopo, EC, Moz, Namibia, etc.)...... So much to do, such little time & MONEY!!!
 
I hunted buffalo last year on the Sandveld reserve, one of the national parks with very limited quota (that's the buffalo in my avatar). Similar sized property, I think. It was a great hunt.
 
I'd be pretty damn happy with that!!!
 
I am! And my point is these government parks tags are great opportunities for a free range experience without travelling to Zim, Moz or Namibia. And this is a great price - I paid more.
 
Yeah for sure..... I think Moz, Zim or Namibia would be cool. However, if the free range experience is available and don't have to deal with the additional travel or hassle, be a great opportunity. Congrats @Custom
 
I just want to know if I can do this in 17.....

Same for me Brad, same for me!!!! Especially the money part, it doesn't equal out to my animal and destination with list!

Business is the only way to fly. I'm headed to SA August 25. I'm hoping that business isn't an arm and a leg. If you don't mind, what airline and the cost for your trip. Mine will be convoluted. I'll be flying into the states to pick up my 416 Rigby as Thailand doesn't allow firearms (pay no attention to the daily shootings and killings) so I'll have 2 very long trips.

Hi EGS

I read your thread with interest. Would you mind sending me that PDF? May I put it on my website?
