Discounted Buffalo in Tanzania
I have an opportunity for a discounted Buffalo and plainsgame hunt in the Kigosi Reserve in Western Tanzania for the first part of July of this year. The hunt can only be taken between 1-14 of July.

Hunt: 10-day 2x1 Buffalo and Plainsgame on a 14-day license
Dates: Can be scheduled during the first 14 days of July, 2006.
Location: Kigosi Reserve, Western Tanzania
Original Price: $15,875/person
Discounted price: $10,450/person

This includes
Buffalo trophy fee for each hunter
10% Community development fee on Buffalo trophy fees
Day rate for 10-full hunting days, 2x1
License for each hunter
Dip and Pack fees for each hunter
Export fees
Gun licenses for two rifles per hunter

Not included
Airfare to Tanzania
Commercial air from Dar to Mwanza ($300 per hunter)
Round trip charter Mwanza to Kigosi and return $1900 per plane, not per hunter.
Trophy shipping to the USA
Trophy fees on additional animals taken or wounded
10% Community Development fees on additional animals taken or wounded

Each hunter can shoot
1 Buffalo (included in cost)
1 Defassa Waterbuck
1 Hartebeest
1 Topi
1 Reedbuck
1 Hyena

The two hunters will split the following animals
1 Warthog
1 Bushbuck
1 Jackal
1 Crocodile
1 Zebra

Trophy fees

1st Buffalo (included in pkg) - $750
2nd Buffalo (included in pkg) - $900
Hartebeest - $465
Warthog - $400
Topi - $440
Waterbuck, Defassa - $550
Reedbuck, Bohor - $365
Bushbuck - $425
Jackal - $145
Hyena - $230
Crocodile - $1,050
Zebra - $740

If you schedule the hunt from 4-13 July, it should be possible to share one leg of the charter with a client of mine coming in on 14 July. Even if you had to pay the full charter cost, this hunt is still only $11,700 with all interior airfare and charter cost and Buffalo trophy fee included.

In one line the 10% CD fees are included and then at the bottom they're not?

I believe that the CD fees mentioned in the last line would be calculated based on trophy fees for animals taken other than buff.

This is a terrific deal, BTW.

10 % community development fees for the Buffalo are included. 10% CD on additional animals are not included.

I edited it to be more accurate. Thanks for pointing it out.

I hunted there with Wendell last year. None of the game will be an issue except maybe croc (we didn't see any, but then didn't really go after them).
