So I know this is a long shot but I thought I would give it a try anyway. We sold our house and are staying with family until the new house is ready (I know, shoot me now!) and the work schedule cleared out. So I was talking to my wife last night finishing up Christmas plans for the kids and we decided to forgo presents for each other. I told her she could buy me a plane ticket to South Africa. She said sure, why not. So here I am, looking for a hunt next week.

I know it's short notice but I can travel pretty much anywhere. Do any outfitters have something that has to go by the end of the year? I have hunted SA 5 times and have a decent plains game selection. But I am pretty much open to hunt anything (well, Rhino and Elephant are probably out because of the budget). Again, I know it's a long shot but a guy can dream.......
 
Hello Akeate,

As many Outfits here on this forum, I would gladly help you out with a last minute hunt.

Please feel free to PM with more info and what you are looking for.

Regards
 
@akeate There is never such a thing as too short notice;) As mentioned above many Outfitts that will be happy to get you "IN and ON the GAME" anytime. Happy hunting and good luck with the new house. PS: You better get the wife something nice from SA!!
 
let me check with a few i know... not sure what is available at this time
 
You may as well buy the tickets, your going to find a hunt... (y)
 
Oh yes someone will take you to the Bush
 
I believe HartzView Safaris can help you out. Please call me or PM me your number and a good time to call you.
 
Could a lion hunt be in the making?

Howdy @akeate you're one really lucky man! Use the opportunity!

I do have quota available on beautiful Sable, oh and yes one buff bull! Let me know your thoughts and if it tickles your fancy, you are welcome to contact me. Super low price, and some beautiful other animals in the same concession. Talking of buffalo, how quick can you get here???? #INEEDHELP #BROKENLOOSEOUTOFCONCESSION #ANIMALCONTROL #ACTNOW

COntact me on e-mail - loodt.buchner@tootabi.com

Lion, or Sable?

@Tootabi Hunting Safaris , ya got any left? :E Confused:

Thank you @Royal27 this guy might just have the right timing...

Sure most Outfitters will be able to assist in a last minute hunt, the best thing is that most have quota left and prices are looking good.

Welcome to the forum Akeate.
Paw Print and lbgsafaris are relatively close to JHB for a last minute hunt and have extensive experience on dangerous game. They are regulars here on the forum, and I will vouch for them personally.

All the best with your research,

Take Care,
Marius Goosen
 
Hello Akeate,

So many good outfitters on here but if you are still looking at quotes , send me a PM.
 
Who are you going hunting with if I may ask
 
An Outfitter came through. Thank you for all the help. I will post picks of the HIPPO when I get back. This is why I love AH :)
Congratulations! Looking forward to the photos!

Regards
 
Wow! one lucky man with a good woman !!
Why not hunt Australia with 6 Deer species in the South and head up to NT for Buffalo , Boar , Scrub Bull and some fishing .
It would certainly be a change of scenery .

Maybe my wife will read your post and get the same idea ;)
 
Great you found an outfitter! Good luck on your hunt.
(Or I had access to one for you with Leopard, Sitatunga,Eland,hippo and other plains game).

A two minute video I made of our recent Safari. I think it turned out well

Jake, Sorry to bug you again. I was wondering if you could share a. couple actual pics of this crossbow with me?

Xpedition Archery USED Scrapeline390X Sniper Gray Crossbow XACW1001 - Light Wear - Needs Bolt/Arrow Guide Spring UA5689​

If it is in a decent shape, would you be willing to sell it for $100 shipped? IS it missing the retention spring that goes over the bolt?
Thank you Ferenc
Hie guys. Where can a 16 year old get a job at a hunting outfitter whilst the boy studies for lph . If anyone has anything WhatsApp me on [redacted]

Good morning John, I just read your setup procedure for the northstar duplicator ator. I found it very hand and I did learn some things. I have the same machine and I am having a problem i can not figure out and was hoping you could shed some light on the subject.
