Hi there Gents and Outfitters ! I have a keen interest to book a Cape Buffalo hunt in Zimbabwe. So here it goes and what we are looking for in the hunt. ( Me and my Brother) From the subject line, one could have an idea of the adventure. Why Zimbabwe? well many years ago I have visited Zim as a guide, and absolutely love the Area from Gwai to Sengwa Wildlife Area. I am looking for the same area if possible. Or if you have an exciting area, let me know! We will book x2 Cape Buffalo`s to hunt in the above areas if there are any tickets available or such (also other game where available) The dates will be 2020, 14 to 20 days...getting things in order now is vital. We will drive from South Africa in a Land Cruiser ( will make sure to add the needed; rails, seats and fridges, winches, power, camping gear and so on...) Will bring our own rifles, camping gear, extra fuel, food, drinks, snacks and some nice thing, basically everything needed for the hunt. We will only require your hunting concession rights, animal tags and guides for the adventure. The hunting adventure will be executed in a traditional way, this means we would love to hunt in the day and do remote camping at night (all self-sufficient, plus your PH/guide), moving around the hunting area and camp where needed. If skinning is required on the hunting day then salting the skins and horns ( also to export to RSA) should be 100%mobile, however, I don't know about the meat, maby eat most of it...making biltong or donate to the village. Let me know via email, please. I am looking forward to meeting you all and review what you have on offer for us. This is super exciting !! Cheers Wayne
You can hire Landcruiser D/cab complete with rooftop tent etc from Hertz(and probably other car hire companies). Looked pretty well equipped, I saw one that some germans had hired at Hwange a few weeks ago. Had SA plates so they must have driven from SA with it. Perhaps an option for you. Are you planning to camp close to an existing hunting camp ? Otherwise you would need a PH willing to wild camp with you and you may need permits.Unfortunately, the hunters that I know are not campers and the campers I know are guides not hunters.
Wayne, drop me email on martinpieterssafaris@gmail.com, I can put your hunt together for 2020 in the Zambezi valley. Cheers Mart
If you are ever looking to add to your hunting party give me a shout. Would love to get back to Zim. Cheers,
