Grateful to learn of any experiences with this company. I plan to be in Zambia in early September and seek a short hunt following on hunts in Namibia and South Africa.

Regards,
Tim

Only heard good things you should be in great hands!

Good man.

For buffalo?

Thank you both.

Not likely to be buffalo, but I'll ask if that's possible on a short hunt.

Regards,
Tim

Fico Vidale is 100% honest and trustworthy as are all of the PH's who work with him.

Have been with Vidale twice, each time it gets better.

Fico will be at booths number 1568 and 1570 at the SCI convention in Vegas.

his web site is www.vidalesafaris.net if you are interested.

What is it that you plan on taking with Fico and when are you going?

Cheers,

Glenn
The buffalo on this page was taken with Vidale.

I'll be there end of August/early September, Glenn. Not sure what I'm after but maybe puku, grysbok, tssebe.

Have emailed Vidale but expect they are busy with the SCI event.
Regards, Tim

Tim,

How long will you be there? His Mwanya concession is a very good hunting block, especially for buffalo. If you're there on a 7 day license you can shoot a buff and 6 plainsgame. I did a 2x1 hunt there in 2009 and we shot 2 buffalo and 10 separate plainsgame species in 7 days.

Lots of villages in the area, but they don't bother the hunting at all.

Hi Tim,

You will only get tsessebe in Bangweulu swamps which is another expensive charter.

Fico is in Italy at the moment getting ready to vome to Vegas on the 29th.

We shall be with Fico on Tuesday evening if you are not going to be at the SCI and care to send us your contact information and we shall see that it gets to him. There are times when e-mails go off into space between, Zambia in the bush, the Office in Lusaka, his home in Tanzania or Italy.

Glad to help you if you care to send us an e-mail. bland@epix.net
