Hi All,

I had another great season at Royal and did a bit of hunting in the Luangwa as well as across the river from me in Lunga Luswishi. Along the way met some great personalities and some awesome folks from AR. There were many highlights and too numerous to mention.

This last season saw my son Tom and a good bloke Jake Jones from Texas learning the ropes. They were good to have around and hopefully, they learned something. They will both be joining me for this coming season and again most of our clients are old friends and acquaintances from this forum. Much looking forward to hunting Buff with Darin again although she hung up her guns years ago! Charles is going to have another bash at the monster Leopard. One that simply did not conform to any hunting method that I know of. Never come across a cat that could finish baits in one sitting or abandon the bait only to appear midday three days later! Such are Leopard and I try for another oversized cat across the river and for the sake of a few minutes could not get a shot in daylight. Another super cat that ran rings around us. However, the two-tier pricing makes all this very affordable and one lucky chap took a Lion on foot on the very last hour of his safari. A very exciting hunt that endured a charge.

The quality of plains game was very high and we took some monstrous reedbuck and host of other fine Kafue species. Buffalo were in good numbers and some fine specimens were hunted. The biggest buffalo recorded was the first buffalo on the first morning of a chaps safari and he thought we might find something bigger than 46! Anyway, he is still out there and hopefully, we will come across his path again.

The annual group hunt was held in Lunga Luswishi care of Richard Bell Cross and everyone got their priority animals and the quality was first class. Lots of fun was had and everyone shot well.































Next up Roan, Sable Croc and a variety of plainsgame.

You will have to excuse the quality of photos as I lost many images and had to copy them from other posts.

Talk about some great Trophies.

The kind that many dream about going after.

Do you plan to be at the DSC convention?

Congratulations Andrew, what a great year for Royal Kafue. Some very nice trophies there and very happy hunters.

Do you think you could handle a ladies group hunt if I can get a few of us Lady Hunters together?

Andrew,

Some great trophies there. Since you'll never come to DSC, you're going to force me book with you to actually meet you. But that seems like a good plan. I'm booked for 2020, but been wanting to go to Northern Rhodesia for a while now. Can you send me a PM?

I'm particularly interested in sitatunga, lechwe and cats. Always interested in buffalo.

Hello all. I’m the Jake that Andrew mentioned in an earlier reply. I was lucky enough to have joined Royal Kafue during this past season and even luckier to have been invited back. The hunting was phenomenal and the company was on par. I look forward to seeing some of you again and meeting some of you for what I hope is the first of many more times to come. I hope the new year is treating everyone well so far. I will post some additional photos when I figure out how to do it. Cheers

Another cracking season Mr Baldry. The Royal Kafue Project continues to set the benchmark for conservation hand in hand with community. The trophies are consistent with your reputation as one of Africa’s premier PH’s.
Congratulations.

Hi Jake

It was great to meet you and have a few whisky's around the fire with you, Andrew, Tom and of course Max back in June. I hope you have a great second season with them.

Kind regards

Yes sir, I sure enjoyed that trip. I heard that Phil wasn’t feeling well afterwards and I hope he’s doing better. I would like if all of our paths cross again sooner than later.

Hey Mike, good to hear from you. Come see us again whenever you’re able. We could do nicely with a couple more nights around the fire like that. I hope all is well with the family.

Incredible season.

I’ve always wanted to try the Japanese whisky. What are your thoughts?
