Hello everyone,new hunter to Africa here, looking for knowledge about outfitters. Right now we plan to go to Africa next year for our first hunt. We are looking at Africa Hunt Lodge and Somerby Safari, does any one have any experience with these outfits? And does anyone have any recommendations?

Welcome aboard John18. I live on Grosse Ile an island between the U.S. and Canada South of Detroit. Where are you from? I haven't hunted with Somerby but I've talked to their reps at a SCI Hunting Expo for the past three years. They seem to be straight up guys. I'm retired and available most of the time except for Tuesday Evenings and Sunday mornings. If you want to talk send me a Private Message with your contact information.

Welcome to AH sir! Somerby Safaris are good people. They are at our Kansas City SCI expo each year. Never heard a complaint about them!
John 18, welcome to the AH forum! Enjoy your research ending in an addictive place...Africa!

Just wanted to say thanks for the excellent customer service. Ordered some 9.3x62 brass and the delivery was a little short. An email through your website Contact Us link was replied to the next day with the tracking info for the correction. Good pricing coupled with great customer service will see returning customers every time. Thanks again!
