What time of year and would there be good plains game to hunt?
Plains game hunting is generally all year round with a peak in mid May - mid July end July , some areas may differ by a week or so, anyway that seems to be the rut season for most animals. From August - mid November it’s still very good just befor it rains and everything is green and wet. Reason being the Bush is thinner you can see better and the game tend to frequent water points more often . Having said that there are hunts going on now and successfully hunts at that . So in a nutshell you can hunt all year round on a good property. Hope this helped
 
Mate, just to confirm / clarify for future reference, being a chalky who gets nearly all of January off... you can hunt Zimbabwe in January?

Hi Will, the Hyena and Honey badger are all year round there is not really a better time so to speak, however visibility is better later in the year as far as seeing them at night with the use of a spotlight and night vision.

All the best

Looking forward to Tuesday and the demise of another Hyena or three!
 
This is definitely a great hunt for someone looking for a spotted hyena.
 
WOW you have some BIG hyena in your area !! Congrats. Love the little Wildcat !
 
Excellent trophies! The civet cat would make a great whole mount or flat skin!
