Agree with Andrew Saeed should have pissing match forum as well just for that Ha Ha I think, anyone that was ever in any business , knows how tough downturns in economy can be. I also can see, where outfitters in many " not so democratic " countries can be held hostage by trophy and other fees increases while business is down. I definitely take my hat down for all you guys in Africa Sometimes I can think of staying in business can be tough, but when I see what's going on in Africa, my glass is full no matter what Keep up the good work, I'm coming...

George, I don't know what happened to you but it seems your story and Buzz's are quite different. Regardless I stand by my statement that nobody should be telling a client to pay the game scout $800 on a 10 day buff hunt. They might suggest something like you said in the neighborhood of $100 but you are not ever required to tip anyone and it would seem that this is the CMS policy also. Mark MARK H.

The prices will automaticly regulate the demand/supply. Some operators has a known name and has reputable business which takes a looong time to create(lots of hard work,mistakes and errors in the beginning which cost). Like buying a gun, you expect a certain quality when buying a certain name. But regardsless of what you buy, the transaction must have some kind of tranparency so the consumer can view the premisses and what he buys. That isn´t always the case in the hunting/safari business. A price should reflect a volume, a quality and condition. However I do also reconize there is a difference in businessculture and businesslegalities from Africa to US/EU. Here in Denmark the consumer is heavily protected with laws with required productinfo where in the US the consumer has less rights and there is less requirements to the industry to inform the consumer. In Africa with many countries all that stuff is not present and many african countries doesn´t have a tradition to protect consumers at all. Here everything is just about legal to sell so long the last sucker isn´t born yet. In regards to all this , my last SA hunt the operator charged us R3000 per/night pro/persona for sleeping in a tent in a selfcatering camp. Did we pay?...freeking hell no!. We went to pay R200 per/night pro/persona. No more!. DRSS: HQ Scandinavia. Chapters in Sweden & Norway | |||

It would be interesting to see what the carrying cost of lions is in places like Save and Bubye. From my very rough analysis and conversation I have heard that lions off take of buffaloes is more than the hunting quota. Would make sense to cull the lions and increase the quota and reduce the price of buffalo hunts. Since only males are hunted lions cost a lot in game lost - why I don't think you see non canned/chattle lions in SA - they hammer high dollar game. Since no lions to US. I think it makes sense to increase buffaloes and decrease lions. Reduce price on buffalo hunts and sell more buffalo hunts. I think unless outfitters start thinking more creatively - the price increase model of selling hunts is done. Maybe if oil comes back to $100 maybe the $$start flowing again. Also would like to see outfitter focusing on reducing secondary cost - charter rates (maybe do group charters) and cutting the fat from the shipping, crating and clearing rate. Mike | |||

think if you will about the carrying cost of elk in and around the yellowstone park all in--- government administration and management expense could be the wolf is eating pricy meat paid for by the taxed american bet it's around 5000 us a pound it would be a bit nasty to do an economic assessment on the full absorption costing of the park service the fish and game and the blm it would be like watching old people '''do what they were good at when they were young''' it would just make you sick Anyway it matters not, because my experience always has been that of---- a loss of snot and enamel on both sides of the 458 Win---- | |||

when flipping back through the thread i hit on a question when you think about it we may have an interesting phenomena going on here typical situation-- when price Rises ---is that the low pay scale customers depart the market and look for substitutions what we have here in addition to some of that is --- is about 50-50 the high end or the premium clients are departing the market for fishing trips it looks like this thing deserves some additional thought at first blush it looks like we may have a structural problem here something like a bad culture in a corporation it would be a toxic culture or or or Anyway it matters not, because my experience always has been that of---- a loss of snot and enamel on both sides of the 458 Win---- | |||

Are you stradling saddle or fence? I personally think, Africa is great place to hunt, there will always be bargains and expensive hunts I'm OK with it, some are not and new blood is coming in " Until the day breaks and the nights shadows flee away " Big ivory for my pillow and 2.5% of Neanderthal DNA flowing thru my veins.
