Tickets booked

We went with Kuche this last August. It was a great time and made me want to go back! We just booked our second trip in May next year, but with Crusader Safaris. Nothing wrong with Kuche, I think they do a great job of getting people to come to hunt, and get that little taste, but I am really looking forward to free range hunting on the Eastern Cape.

You will have a great time! And if Quintin is your PH, you will not be disappointed!
 
I’m in a similar boat. Just used Gracy to book IAD-DBX-HRE. A night at amazi lodge then the charter to the safari area for a day of fishing on the Zambezi then 10 days in Dande North.

Out return has a 19 hour layover in Dubai and we are going to take advantage of the tour excursion offered by Emirates.
 
Take extra money-the “bush” will be generous to you!
Citi lodge breakfast buffet is excellent, please try the oomas crunchies for me and have therm build you an omelet with baked beans in it. It will be too long before I get back there!
 
Now I am just trying to save up as much as possible just in case the bush decides to provide a little more than anticipate.
I went with the naive idea that I was just going to hunt what was included in the package... oh, I was wrong. Ended up with 7 animals, 6 shoulder mounts, and a zebra flat skin... Give yourself about $10k for animals, and another $5k for taxidermy (not counting shipping back). But with only having to pay half for taxidermy, until completed about 18-24 months later, gives you some time to save for that second half!
 
Just an update with this safari. We are 6 days out from our flight across the pond and we are so excited to get over there. As far as firearms go I ended up going with my weatherby mark v accumark in 30-378 wby mag, I know its probably too much but its the rifle I am the most comfortable with, I am using a slower load with the hammer 199gr stone hammers and these things are awesome so far I cant wait to see what their performance is on some african plains game
 
Sounds like a great choice. Have fun and send updates.

See you are from Denmark - see quite a few Danes where I stalk in Scotland - great hunters.
The Harkilia stuff works well in Africa - I have a bit for use here in UK.
I am again looking for 600 Nitro dies preferably RCBS 1 inch. The set I purchased previously are 1 1/2 inch and do not fit my die. Another member has graciously taken them off my hands. If anyone happens to have a set of 600 Nitro Dies that will fit my Rockchucker Supreme RCBS press, please shoot me a message and thanks in advance for any assistance you may have to offer!
