Ticky, Please keep me informed on hunts? I would be interested to see how your season goes, and what you have open for next year. Good luck. | |||

Will do, we have recently completed a successful plains game safari as well as a short Croc hunt. 4 clients have hunted with me so far this year, all of which left with a smile. We will be busy again from 23 Jume to 23 Aug. I will let you know how they go. I believe you were considering, perhaps we will see you next year? | |||

What is the status of the Bubiana Conservancy now? I wonder what if any has changed in almost 3 years. | |||

I went there in Oct.. Had a blast. http://forums.accuratereloadin...6321043/m/3111000341 There was some serious land grabbing in that part of the country, but be assured, there is still some great places that were able to weather the storm. | |||

MC, as mentioned, it is the Drummond Ranch now. We are sold out for Leopard this year. Next door is the Bubye Conservancy, formally Lemco. My opinion of the Drummond Ranch remains steadfast; outstanding area for top quality Leopard, PG (including some excellent trophy class animals), upland birds, waterfowl and bass fishing. Accommodations, food, PH's and overall experience makes it perfect for a family safari as well. You will see a lot Elephant and maybe black Rhino. Definitely enough sign to know they are there.

David, Can you hunt Elephant there? Maybe a Leopard/Ele combo for 2012? | |||

MC, Elephant are hunted in communal areas. However, with their numbers increasing annually on the ranch, it is a possibility that in the near future they may offer a very limited number. I will inquire and advise you.

To clarify, only a part of what was once the Bubiana Conservancy remains intact. Of the original 8 farms, I think only 3 are still OK ... Drummond Ranch, neighboring property (Collet's - Touch Africa) and Lemco (Bubye). The rest have been settled. The three that are left are being "persuaded" to hand over 51% to "indigenous" Zimbabweans as we speak. I suggest going soon.
