Leopard Hunt With Hounds Special 2017

[siml]

@gizmo , yes it is an option.

 

[ActionBob]

Simon would it be possible to hunt buff on this hunt as well? I know it would require a transfer but would it be an option?

Erik;
The standard advice on leopard hunting is to concentrate on the cat and don't reach too far for other things. I am definitely always trying to pack as much into a trip as I can but I think that is great advice. Nothing wrong with a standby plan to hunt buff if you have time after a successful cat hunt... But I would keep it strictly an optional add on that can be pre-arranged but not committed to until last second.

@gizmo if you take this deal, I'll be supremely jealous of you! I'm hoping to hunt leopard in 2018 or 2019, but just can't do it yet with work.

 

[siml]

@ActionBob , sound advice.

Typical day, up at 03h00, start checking baits and the roads for leopard signs, usually done by 07h00, hunt for other animals until 12, break until 15h00 then out for afternoon hunting.

These two Tom's are still around and haven't been hunted. Both are great Tom's, one is really a beaut.

Simon,
Sounds perfect! What is the sable trophy fee on this hunt? What else is commonly hunted/encountered in your area?
I would really like to do a hunt like this.
Regards,
Philip

Philip, last year with @ActionBob , was the first time we used dogs, it was a total learning curve to me,us, and this year I will be definitely more prepared for the use of dogs. April we will be opening more roads, that will go all the way around the iselbergs/mountains and more along the river. Being able to pick up the leopards tracks crossing the roads is vital to success if they not hitting the baits.

Both leopards have been sold for 2017.

 

[BRICKBURN]

Congrats.

Congrats Simon, I'm really happy for you. I know it isn't an easy job running hunts in Mozambique.

 

[siml]

One leopard isn't AH member, second is AH member.

 

[rinehart0050]

Congrats @Traditional Mozambique Safaris! Hopefully we get a report from the AH member!

....still waiting on @ActionBob's report....

Glad you got them both sold Simon, best of luck on the hunts!

 

[Philip Glass]

I will go chase Mr Spots with Simon in August. I told Simon I'm pretty mad at Mr Spots after 32 days pursuing him unsuccessfully in 2016! I'm looking forward to my first trip to Moz.
Regards,
Philip

 

[cpr0312]

Best of luck @Philip Glass !

 

[siml]

@Philip Glass , we will do our best to put Mr Spots in the salt. Looking forward to your presence in camp and making it memorable safari.

That's great news Philip! I'm sure you'll have a great time in Moz with Simon!!

 

[JustinC]

Great news!

 

[LivingTheDream]

@Philip Glass I thought you might be one of the guys doing this hunt. Best of luck that you get Mr. Spots in the salt. I look forward to reading your report.
