Hi all

Living in South Africa does present a problem when it comes to hunting. It seems that almost everyone caters for foreign hunters but not local. Just try searching for hunting prices or shoulder mounting prices and the majority will be in US Dollar. This is very frustrating when trying to plan a hunting trip and determining what the costs will be if i want to mount set trophy or tanning of skin etc. Am i just searching the wrong way?
 
I would say since your in Africa a call to most places will get you all the answers you are looking for. Very few place will show local prices as it is cheaper they what we will pay coming from another country. We can all figure out rand to dollar so it is in there best interest to keep that away from most clients.
