Looking at booking a hunt in this area for June. Any info on trophy quality and numbers of Elephant, Buff, Sable and plains game would be appreciated. Thanks in advance for your time.
 
Who is the outfitter on Unit five now?
 
Stephan Bapei as far as I've been told.
 
Nobody has any info ??? Where else could a guy find said info ?
 
If you are interested in hunting Matetsi I would contact one of these two guys.

Tim Farren (Tim416 on Africa Hunting) Tim books on Matetsi One. Good guy, works with a proper operator.

Russ has hunted the Matetsi area for years. He has quota on a couple of different blocks and can offer good insight to the situation there.
Remember to book with a licensed Zimbabwe outfitter and PH when hunting in Zim.

Hi Jeff

The Matetsi Units are the best remaining wild, free range, fair chase hunting areas in Africa today. There is no doubt in my mind about that fact, this is true for all big game species. Matetsi Unit 5 is 390 Kilometers squared in extent.

We book Unit 2, 5. Please let me know if you are still interested in hunting Unit 5?

See the attached photo we took of a herd of 1000+ buffalo on the Unit 5 Parks boundary two weeks ago:

Dear JeffC
Enjoy the planning process of your potential safari. Having FUN during the planning process since it forms a huge important part of your safari.
 
Planning is indeed fun! What will you be after on the hunt!
 
I hope the OP still isn't planning this hunt and has gone by now.

Hi Dr. Ray, I will be in Cooktown from Oct 16 to Oct 23 fishing Lizard Island Black Marlin Tournament.

I have several "slack" days after fishing before I head for stay in Sydney and Fiji.

Do you have any recommendations for 1 or 2 day hunt near Cooktown?

I've hunted both DG and PG in 4 different countries in Africa.
Thank you,
Bob

Good morning. I see that you had a Sauer 202 for sale for $3,000. Did you sell it at that price?
I have one for sale as well. I listed it (on here ) at $3,000 as well. Is the price high, low or right where it should be?

Thanks. Alex. [redacted] in case you want to call me to discuss further. I appreciate your time help and support.

Dave, I could use both of them if still available. I just picked up a new .22 mag and a .22 pump that they would be perfect on.
