Where wouldn't I like to hunt Smiler

In the next 2 to 3 years, I would like to hunt Zambia for cape buffalo

Natal, try to take a nyala with a bow

All those Tholo hunt reports right now make me want to hunt Tholo in Botswana for a good southern kudu

Just got back from the E. Cape and had a wonderful first safari, taking everything I wanted except two things. One by choice and one not for lack of trying. I passed on eland after killing a good red lechwe. And I really wanted a good warthog with a bow. I shot a young boar on the 2nd to last day with my bow, but couldn't make it come together on a big boar.

I never hunted there but I read in Boddington's book that it is large swamp land.

Dang,

My "hunting bucket list" is nearly identical. The only exception is CAR, which I was lucky enough to get into and out of with absolutely zero issues.

EVERY adventurous sport hunter needs to hunt the conundrum that is CAR.

I was never interested in hunting in the Congo or anywhere else in Africa aside from Zim,Tanz,Moz,and Zambia with Zim being my first choice.I could not go on a hunt in Africa and not hunt DG either.

Gentlemen:

I'm not sure about the CAR coming back in the short term- there are many issues to solve there!

Back on subject: Uganda (Karamoja) would be fun as well as a return to the Selous GR, a great piece of wild africa.

Of what is currently open:

Ethiopia as above

Uganda as above

Mozambique for small antelope.

South Africa or Zim for small cats.

Chad for western Kudu- if is stays stable.

If it clears up, Botswana for elephant, CAR, Angola, and Zim for elephant again.

Otherwise, just for fun, back to Tanzania and Zambia as repeat hunts.

All depends on my mood at the time. Of the stuff listed, I think Moutain Nyala probably will be my personal priority.

If I could I would choose to hunt first an elephant bull, secondly a bongo.

Slightly more realistically, it is more likely that it would be Zimbabwe again for buffalo, hippo, croc., or possibly Namibia for a non-export elephant bull.

My next hunt will probably be for a buff or two and plains game.It would be an inexpensive hunt.I find expensive hunts too stressful and less fun.There are some areas in Zim that I have not been to that interest me-areas in and around the Zambezi valley-my favourite place.I like wild areas that are full of game.There is a nice area in Moz in the valley on the south shores of Cahora Bassa.Tanzania is interesting also.Makuti would be my ultimate choice if not for the risk of sleeping sickness.

I think I'd be complete if I could do a MT Nyala, bongo and see Uganda. Uganda may be in future but Mt Nyala and bongo may be out of reach. I did buy 20 chance on the Mega Million so who knows.

Interesting how uganda keeps popping up--

hunting the Karamogo region of Uganda is a dream of mine. I have a couple of friends that have been there-----


Zambia with Andrew would be the next best.

There are plenty of choices but on the next 2-3 years I would do the hunts that are in greater risks of disappearing or changing rapidly

- lion in zambia, tanz or zimbabwe
- forest elephant in cameroon
- bongo in congo or cameroon
- lord derby eland in cameroon
- mountain nyala and the desert species in ethiopia
- masailand pg in tanzania

other fun hunts in not so greater risk
- coutada 9 or 11 or pg and pigmy antelopes
- south africa for small cats and small predators
- zambia for sable and roan
- burkina or benin for roan and western buffalo
- uganda for pg

I plan on going back to Masailand and Rungwa, Tanzania.

I will jump on a big tusker hunt if Bots opens back up...

Lion and Buff would be nice - location to be determined, depending upon availability of game, price, and stability of the country.

If I remember right, there was a Namibia "Pack Hunt" advertised here a few years back. Basically, you pack in for a few miles and hunt free ranging Plains Game. This is the type of hunt I would be interested in.

I have shot a lot of Plains Game in South Africa, during 2 separate trips there. Therefore, I have enough taxidermy and trophies.

For this reason, I would be fine hunting animals without a big concern for trophy size. I am just interested in experiencing a pack and tent hunt, and doing away with the 4 star lodging (I am not saying that it is bad, just that I am looking for something different).

Elephant Northern Botswana near the Kazuma or Kasane Forest Reserve. I have never seen so much heavy ivory. Fingers crossed that they open Botswana back up for hunting. Been saving ever since I took this photo. This is right on the side of the road four hours North of Francistown.
