New guy from Nebraska

[45bthompson]

Hello hunters! I am an avid whitetail and upland game hunter from Nebraska. I am planning my first hunt in South Africa for next April. I am excited to have found this forum and have already learned quite a bit from lurking for just a day.

I have a budget and don't know if I can get everything I would like but I'm thinking Impala, Blesbuck, Kudu cow and hopefully a Caracal.

I spent 6k for two hunters for ten days and a ten animal hunt. Get the first eight animals and get two more free. Plus flt from California plus another 5k for taxidermy. Insurance, trip insurance, medical insurance and special ops insurance was another $1600 for two of us. Special ops was only $300, they come get you if there is any conflict. My wife made me buy this as I was traveling with our son.

The food was awesome, our trip was spectacular, spent Father’s Day and my birthday with my son. Plus we got the ten!! Blesbok, blue wildebeest, warthog, kudu, gemsboks,impala, nyala, springbok, zebra and mountain rebook. Tip was to the lodge employees and the ph was given my binoculars, which he loved using. Hope this helps

Geeze, spec ops insurance huh? I hope if they fail your next of kin gets a refund. Is there any bad times of the year to go as far as politics or crime or whatever?
