Hello from West Texas!

New to AH and new to hunting in general. Wife has asked to go to Cape Town for New Years to tour the wine lands around Stellenbosch. I’ve managed to convince her to let me spend a few days at the end doing a short plains game hunt. Looking forward to hearing recommendations and getting engaged on here!
 
Welcome to AH tx_troubador! Glad to you found us. Cape Town is a fantastic destination, contact Jennifer from @TRAVEL EXPRESS (www.travelexpressagency.com) she is very familiar with traveling to South Africa/Cape Town and organizing tours and vacation there.
 
Welcome to the site.

I'm not sure of the outfitters in that area but you will really enjoy the wine country.

On my safari in 2015 we took a tour from Port Elizabeth to Cape Town along the coast and then through the wine country. We stopped at a number of the vineyards and sampled their wares. I learned more about wine in a couple of days than I had ever known before.

But there were some fires in the country a couple of years ago and I am not just sure of how the vineyards fared.

Don't forget to stop at some of the ostrich farms either
 
Welcome to AH! I just got back in June from a 10 safari of plains game then a short vacation in Cape Town. Had a great trip. Stellenbosch was fantastic. Toured the entire area with a private coach. Ate lunch at a place founded in 1692. Also there you have to go to safari outdoor. It’s a nice everything gun store.
 
tx_troubador, welcome to the AH forum! Best of luck on your hunt and winery tour. It sounds like a fun time.
 
Giday tx_troubador and welcome to the A H forums and hunting in general.
 
Howdy back from Texas! Headed out in the morning for a nice 7 days of hunting with Spear Safaris around the Kruger, then 4 or 5 days at Cape Town with the wife. Looks to be a good time. Welcome
 
Welcome to AH!
 
A short plane ride from Cape Town and you'll be hunting. There are great outfits here on AH that will be happy to help you.

Welcome to AH. Enjoy your trip.

Welcome aboard tx_troubador. You might try listing what game you want to hunt remembering that January 1st is winter here but summer there. State how many hunting days you expect to have available and how far you are willing to travel. With some of the specifics nailed down I'm sure some of the AH outfitters will get in touch with you.
 
Hello tx_troubador,

Khomas Highland Hunting Safaris of Namibia, welcomes you to the greatest forum on earth.

Best Regards,
Velo Dog.

I have a Chapuis 450-400 double that looks brand new and shoots well, never been hunted from what I can tell. I am willing to part with it as I have a 375 H&H Sodia on it's way from Dorleac & Dorleac. I am looking for $9,250 for it and if you are interested, I am happy to send you some pictures. Regards,
Steve
