My wife and I are heading to SA for our first safari this summer (2018). Also, our daughter is posted with the Peace Corps in Botswana so it will be over a year since we have seen her. We are going to the Dixie Deer Classic the first weekend of March 2018 to interview a couple of outfitters. Any questions you think we should ask would be greatly appreciated.

Welcome a lot of good outfitters on this site and deals! 1. How many acres do you hunt? How many hunters do you hunt per property a year?How often do you stalk game? Do you hunt the breeding population or the older animals that are kicked out of the herd? Do you have free range property?

You're hunting in SA and visiting her in Botswana, correct? Or is she meeting you in SA and will she be joining you on the safari?

I used to live in Fayetteville, many years ago. Now I'm in Savannah, GA, Neighbor!

I guess will all depend on if she joins you .... Location , flexability to accommodate you and total cost . Good luck sure you will make the right decision. References in your area might also be a good option !

Welcome aboard DLG. AH is like a gigantic encyclopedia for all hunting related topics. You need to see what has already been written about the questions you have and or the topics that interest you. The search function on AH is very powerful. I suggest you start there.
 
Welcome to the forum DLG! You’re going to have a grand trip, especially since you will get to see your daughter!

I'm unfortunately on a diet. Presently in VA hospital as Agent Orange finally caught up with me. Cancer and I no longer can speak. If all goes well I'll be out of here and back home in Thailand by end of July. Tough road but I'm a tough old guy. I'll make it that hunt.
