| Historically . . . Matetsi. These days, some really good sable (41, 42, 43) are coming out of the conservancies, but they are really limited quota and mostly later in the year.

| Lemco is not half bad for sable. I saw a couple there that were very impressive. |

| A third for sable at Lemco/Bubye Valley Conservancy. I would contact Brent Hein at www.brentheinsafaris.com I believe he has one left on quota for 2010. |

| I don't know how big they are, however, Gordon Duncan at doma has some good sable. I have been more interested in elephant, so, have not really pursued them |

| Another + for Cawston and Matetsi 5. I hunted Cawston and you should take a 40" Sable there. Matetsi 5 has over 40" average. Give Ron Oliver a call, Africa Hunting Safaris, he books for both.

| I only offer this story to annoy sable hunters. ![Smiler](https://forums.accuratereloading.com/groupee_common/emoticons/icon_smile.gif) I hunted in Chirisa in '93 (for buff) and while bouncing in a LandCruiser back from a pasture pick up on my way to camp(first day in the bush), my PH pointed out a sable standing in the small shade of an acacia. I looked at him as a fairly large animal with horns that were very long (and he looked black) Beyond that,guys, I was no more excited than looking at the acacia itself.(I had seen elk and moose in Canada even closer up) Yes, I do apologize to fellow hunters. I came to learn in Africa how prized the sable is and what an ignoramous I was in not being excited about seeing one. |
