Has anyone hunted with SSG Safaris this year? I would be very interested in hearing about it.

While hunting last week Gary Duckworth and I spoke at some length about Nixon and his operation. Gary was of the opinion that Nixon has a very good concession with a lot of oppotunity or potential. I believe he also thought he was a good hunter.

Scott what are you thinking of hunting?

I will let you know soon. I am leaving in 20days. I know his last hunter took 2 buff,1 leopard,1 waterbuck.

And in 60 days, I'm hunting elephant with Nixon.

SBT, his son Chad and I leave October 25th for a 12 day hunt with Nixon. Several people that post on AR have hunted with him. One or two within the last couple or three months. I will have to do a bit of thinking to recall who they are. You might do a search and find their reports that are posted here.

I am waiting now for Nixon to respond to some of the questions that I have sent to him. He has just returned from hunting, so I hope to hear from him shortly.

Chris, we will be anxious to hear how you do.

Hey, Bob!
I'm not sure-- still in the exploratory stages. Either a buff hunt, which would be my first, or perhaps plainsgame, particularly if he has sable on offer. I had been planning another Namibia plainsgame hunt next year, with Shona this time, but economic developments (furloughs of state employees) have put that on hold. So now I'm exploring possibilities for 2011. I would love to go back to Namibia, but Nixon's outfit sounds pretty interesting too.

Scott The member called MBOGOBUTCH killed a grand elephant with Nixon about a month ago. Also member RAC is hunting with him right before me.

I can help you with details and answers to questions. I arrange hunts for Nixon now. I have photo of animals taken, camp, etc. I was in his camp hunting Sept 2008. My e-mail is listed below.
Look forward to helping you out.
Regards,Bobby

I hunted with Nixon in June/July. Feel free to e-mail me any questions. I am happy to talk with anyone by phone about my expereince as well. I will give you the good and the bad, from my perspective.
