It is four days now before the next guest arrives. Four days to get everything sorted from the last hunt, and prepare for the next. I also thought it good to post a general feedback on some of the animals that was hunted with us this year so far, by some of the clients.

All the hunters took an average of 5 animals each, but it would be a VERY long report to get it all in one go.Average money spent for 7/8 days with 5 animals was between $5-6k. Only one hunter did not get 1 animal that he wanted..... I decided to post some of the best photo’s, and most special trophies.

Two of the hunters are AR members, and they have reported on their hunts, so I will not bore our friends with my part of the same story. Other hunters expressed their reservations of having their full names given on a web-site, but all hunters are willing referees, and can be contacted.

Enjoy!

I hope you guys on the forum enjoyed the little feedback. Thank you to all the hunters who hunted with me. You are all true sportsmen, great shots and left as good friends.

Anyone wanting to contact me can e-mail to:

Our web-site is being updated.

Congrats on some great pics and quality hunts Charl. You take some very good pics, and if you study the muzzle area of my Weatherby, you'll see soot on it. That burn area has to be producing lots of grass this spring. Good hunting, David

Thanks David,

Yes, the new grass shoots are making it a lot easier to find the animals, and the strange, out of place rainfall helped the grass in turn.

We are going on the 10'th to the 13'th to cull all the Blue Wildebeest as there was an outbreak of snotsickness on the neighbouring property.

Will give a good report on that.......
