Has anyone heard of this operation or PH? A friend of my son bought a donated hunt at a Ducks Unlimited dinner and is trying to do some research on this outfit. I’ve never heard of them.

Any information or insights would be appreciated.

They started coming to the local hunting show in Oklahoma City probably 15 years ago. These days they generally have a good sized group of past customers hanging around the booth shooting the breeze. All seem to have had good hunts.

An acquaintance takes a group to hunt pg with Kuche most years. He speaks highly of them.

Pretty sure they hunt in Limpopo. I have no clue about the size of the farm(s) they hunt.

If your son's friend has a pg hunt it should work out fine.

they do a ton of donated hunts. I talked with them about 5 or 6 years ago at a sport show and took them off my list. Just came across like a used car salesman to me and over promised at best from what I knew as being true.

Seem to run alot of clients per year and most seem happy

Thanks for the feedback. I’ll pass it along.

I have noticed KUCHE SAFARIS name on Guns International. JD OUTFITTERS, Oklahoma is offering free safaris with KUCHE SAFARIS with rifle purchases.I noticed this some time ago showing up on high end new Rigby bolt rifles, $12,14,15,000 rifles. I had noticed some others scattered on recent searches on others.
I thought HUMMM... interesting marketing scheme??

After seeing this post, I went to GI, selected Browse Rifles, then did a Quick Search with the words "Free Safari"... Results, 11 pages of ads, about 50 per page, there were 4-5 other ads on each page, NOT JD OUTFITTERS, NOT offering safaris....but the rest were!!... on rifles down to $1200...you do the math, that's alotta free safaris!!

IDAKNOW??!!

Website is www.kuche.co.za

They have a unique trophy fee surcharge- base trophy fee is SCI Bronze score. For SCI Silver score 30% premium, for SCI Gold 50% premium!! That's a new twist!!

In that case I will avoid them like the proverbial plague!

What a stupid way to sell hunts.

But, I am sure they are not offering HUNTS.

They selling unwanted animals off their farms!

Well, at least there is no surcharge on a Gold Medal baboon

The JD OUTFITTERS free safari is 5 day daily rate, plus 3 animal trophy fee package for: Impala, Blesbok, and Warthog. 10% off on all additional trophies taken. They have safari camps in Limpopo and Free State....

KUCHE SAFARIS has a booth at Dallas.

That's still alot of free safaris??!!

Hummmmm.....

This hunt is part of a 3 hunt group that a guy bought at a DU dinner. The hunts are this Kuche hunt, a Texas helicopter hog hunt for 2 guns and an Argentina 3 day dove hunt for 4 guns. He got drunk, bought these for $12,000 total, then woke up the next day and realized what he did. He wasn’t gonna take any of the hunts, so wanted to sell them for whatever he could get to recoup some of his foolish spending. I got all 3 hunts for $4,000. We’ve already booked the dove hunt and I just need to coordinate hog dates and that’ll be booked too. Even if I never use this SA hunt, and I probably won’t, I’m money ahead on this deal. I might see if he’d work a deal for a Buffalo hunt with credit for what he donated but otherwise I’ll just let it go unused.
