Just in from Coutada 11 where Jay and I hunted with Mark Haldane's Zambeze Delta Safaris. We had an excellent trip from start to finish. Delta made the trip over and back as easy as possible. Africa Sky Guesthouse's gun service and accomodations were superb and the hunting was fantastic. I have always wanted to hunt this area of Mozambique. Very unique biozones with suni forest, palm savanna, floodplains and swamps. There was lots of game and some very good trophies to be had here. I can highly recommend this adventure and outfitter and I know some of our members can as well. I saw their trophies in the picture albums as I thumbed through them in Mungari Camp. Darin, Dave and Biebs were well accounted for! I ended up with two buffalo, sable, nyala, hartebeest, reedbuck, suni, red duiker and a huge warthog. And Jay shot everything else in the photo. Will get a Hunt Report out in the upcoming week.  On the plains of hesitation lie the bleached bones of ten thousand, who on the dawn of victory lay down their weary heads resting, and there resting, died.

Russell; Well done! Can't wait for the hunt report...did you hunt your Buff in the swamps? Best regards, D. Nelson | |||
|
| one of us |
Darin, Absolutely... one of reasons I wanted to do Coutada 11 was to experience the swamps for buff. As you well know, it is a unique hunt. Between the argos, the papyrus covered rivers, razor grass and mud and muck it is truly a "one of a kind" buffalo hunt!

Beautiful bag. Love the pigs, and that reedbuck is a monster. | |||

OK Russell; Now I can officially welcome you to the Swamp Club!!!! It is definitely the most unusual buffalo hunt I have ever done....and I've hunted them from a Mocuro in the Okavango Delta. The Moz Swamps require a "crazy" hunter!!!!  Again, congratulations on a great bag of trophies!!! Well done! Best regards, Darin | |||

When they talk about Mozambique returning to its "former glory" this is tangible proof that it is slowly happening. Sure some areas are further along than others and many still have along way to go. I have followed modern day Mozambique hunting since Piet Hougaard first ventured into the eastern Tete Province 25 years ago. There have been some great individual trophies taken in a variety of areas in modern day Moz but his is the first hunting photograph that really hit me as being equal to the glorious past in this Country. Lets put it this way the game pictured in this photo is what some camps are happy to take take in an entire season. Congratulations to ZDS and everyone involved. | |||
