Hello, I am finally in a financial position where I think I can afford my first African Hunt. I would like to have around a 7 day hunt(not set in stone). Although I am in a good financial situation where I can afford to travel and hunt I still need to be budget conscious especially since it’s my first time. I am mainly looking for a package where I could hunt a variety of cheaper Cull animals to get my first taste and then try to target a trophy animal or possibly two(mainly considering a Kudu or Giraffe). Still undecided with who is all coming, I am married and have two young kids that might make the journey and go on a sightseeing safari(if there was a way to arrange that through wherever I hunted that would be preferred) or could possibly just be Me and my father as a non hunter to spectate. Not dead set on where the hunt has to do just reasonably to get to and reasonable prices. If any outfitter or PH has a package that is similar to this or could be made similar to this please private message me! Open on dates, April 2026 would be a choice if it’s not too late for that or could do something later in the year I’m pretty open.
 
:S Welcome: to AH
There will be some really good sponsor outfitter contacting you. This is a good time of the year to book hunts

Thank you! I have been reading articles on here for years mostly on the rifle sections as I am avid rifle collector who has too many rifles to choose from to bring to Africa now lol.
 
Please feel free to have a look at this. Extra days and extra species are very easy to add on. Think we can put together what you are looking for!

 
Hi There,
I’m sending you a private message as I believe I have exactly what you’re looking for.

We are more than willing to work out a special package for you. We also have a special offer - if you book now for April 2026, you get 25% discount on daily rates. Hope to hear from you.

Keep the Kudu trophy and add a Gemsbok instead of a Giraff
 
Two great places are Game4Africa and Fronteer for first time hunters. You can take five nice animals for $5000
 
Good day sir,
Here is a nice cull hunt in some beautiful country.

10 Animals, plus day fees, all in for $3950


All the best with your research!

Take Care,
Marius Goosen

Welcome to the club, deciding which rifles to bring is one of those decisions that are part of the process of getting your feet on the ground in Africa for the first time. There are some great outfitters here on AH that will be able to make your hunt a reality.

Sir, I think I have been writing to you about the purchase of the HK 639 rifle under an email "Tt Jake." If this is you, then I am truly interested. I am just trying to verify identify. Tt Jake is asking for a cash transaction. No disrespect intended, Just trying to verify who I am talking to. Thank you. Respectfully. Dan

Hey my friend, I am returning to SA for a Cape Buffalo hunt in June 26. My outfitter has suggested Highveld but I have read some poor reports. Wondering how satisfied you were with your mounts from them? Thanks in advance.
Finally back to somewhat normal I missed reading the messages and posts
