WillZim Leopard/Sable/Plainsgame Hunts Available
Shaun Buffee has asked me to post information on some hunts he has available this year. Shaun was the videographer for most of Buzz’s elephant DVD, and is now hunting as a new PH.
The hunts are in the Bulawayo area and getting to camps in the Inyathi and Matopas areas involves only a short drive and therefore no charters are required. The ranches he hunts comprise about 200,000 acres in total, and have not been hunted for FOUR YEARS! So some big ones should be taken this year. The areas have produced 200 lbs. plus leopards in the past. Sable in the 37â€+ range should be expected.
Rifle or bow hunts for all animals, including leopards and leopard hunts with dogs is available. The cost of using dogs will be an additional cost.
The plainsgame is excellent and you can look to collect 10 or so good representative trophies
Camps range from luxury permanent camps to tented fly camps situated all around the areas.

Shaun is one of the good guys and I would have no hesitation in hunting with him. His web site should be up in a couple weeks but you should e-mail quickly if you are interested at:

bulldog563Is this his area or is he a freelance PH? His daily rates are good but the trophy fees are pretty high. Is this his first year as a Pro?
