"Newbie" here, folks. 61-years old and better start making the Dreams come true by actually booking my first hunt, and not just reading about them. Question: Is anyone else concerned about the South African Government plans to seize property from "white" land owners?

Welcome to AH J Bowe! This has been an ongoing issue and reality in Southern Africa, not only in South Africa, for a long time. With the elections the rhetorics are back... The politics environment in South Africa may not be at its' best but this in no way will affect the wonderful time that you will have in South Africa while hunting or visiting this magnificent country. You have found a great place to do your research and find a great hunt. Ask questions, we have an incredible community willing to help!

Not at all. In 2015, everyone said there was riots in Zimbabwe, it was dangerous, cash shortage, etc. Went and had one of the best times of my life. In years to come it might be a problem but not concerned at all for this or next year.

Welcome to AH sir. Not really worried at 5his time about going hunting in South Africa. I have a hunt booked for July and I am going come heck or high water. However, I do pray for my friends and people I have met in that country! I want them to be safe and happy. Not any different than what we might hope for our friends where we live.

I was talking with a South African from Cape Town yesterday. I asked about the situation and Gordon’s reply was that any land that was to be given away it would be land that is not owned by anyone.
He also said that the new president was a game rancher. I said that many hunters would probably go to Namibia or some other country because of the unsettled situation. Gordon’s response was as above but I remain disinterested but certainly not uninterested regarding the situation.
Maybe it’s just Sabre rattling but I assume we will find out soon. The problem for us oz is that we would transit through Johannesburg or travel all over the world to by-pass jo’burg.

Welcome aboard. I think this expropriation thing has been "over-hyped." Most of the "locals" that have posted here are less concerned than we are. I'm going in July with 7 other folks and expect to have another memorable hunt.

Welcome to AH! I would not be concerned about it for the time being.
