Received a call for some Elephant and Buff hunting in Zimbabwe (Trophy and non-trophy animals), but need some information on the PH / Outfitter and the area he operates in...Don't know his company name or with who he is in patnership with, i will find that out tonight on his response mail. His name is Pieter Gertenbach, does anyone have ANY information on him?

IF YOU TAKE A LOOK AT BUSHWACKS WEB PAGE THERE ARE NO TROPHY PICS OF ELEPHANT ,, ALSO UNLESS HE HOLDS A ZIM PROFESSIONAL HUNTERS LICENCE WHICH I DOUBT
LEGALLY HE CANNOT CONDUCT A HUNT IN ZIM , ONLY A LICENSED ZIM PH CAN DO THIS , THE AREA THAT THE HUNT IS TO TAKE PLACE WOULD BE GREAT INFORMATION , AND SHOULD SAY IT ALL ..

and the point is?...I know all of this...read the mail ONLY looking for info on the ZIMBABWE PH / OUTFITTER.

SORRY IS PIETER GERTENBACH ZIMBABWEN ??? IS HE THE OPERATOR JUST THE NAME IS NOT MUCH TO GO ON MAYBE TRY AND GET MORE INFO

Ross
Your really should read the post again.

Bushwack was trying to ascertain whether the man he was in contact with, was infact a registered PH/Outfitter with a reputation etc before he looks at possibly using the said person to host his clients on hunting trips in Zimbabwe which he himself is not legally allowed to do.

I think he is infact trying to go about this in the right way.

Please correct me if I am wrong

Patrick

As far as I am aware, Pieter Gertenbach is not licensed in Zimbabwe, however I may be mistaken. If you could let me know the area/ concession he is offering hunts on and his company name and HOP # also whether or not he is affiliated to SOAZ and registered with ZTA, all these facts will enable us to give you the correct information

Mart

will do.
