Gentlemen ,

If you can jump on a plane at a moments notice and you want to do something for conservation , then this is a deal for you.

I have 2 Buffalo hunts available in the Balule game reserve in the APNR in South Africa. The free range hunts are priced at a rock bottom price of $ 8 500 for a 7 day hunt. All this money goes to the reserve to use for anti poaching. The area has been hit very hard recently by Rhino poachers and funds are desperately needed. I will outfit the hunts free of charge. The hunts however need to take place before the end of this month.

Included in the price is :

All inclusive Day fees for 7 nights , 6 hunting days.
This includes all accomodations , meals , drinks , daily laundry service , trackers , skinners , vehicles , PH.
delivery of trophy to Life form taxidermy for export.
airport pick up and drop off at the nearest airport -- Eastgate or Phalaborwa.
Trophy fee for one management Buffalo bull.

Not included are

Taxidermy , dipping and shipping and trophy export fees
Any other game hunted.

Interested members can e mail me at mwshumba@mweb.co.za.

Hunting regards ,

That is a extremely good price Jan, and I like the old dugga boy in the pic. Wish you the best fighting the poachers.

Thanks Peter

Where's my damn fairy god-mother when I need her...

I know , that's the way it goes mate.

I have nothing to say about the cricket......

This is tempting and I don't even have any plans to hunt buffalo again!

Helluva deal.

Please confirm that this hunt is for a buffalo bull. Additionally what are the fees for optional animals hunted? Does this hunt have to be concluded by 31 March? Or can it be started before the end of March and concluded in April?
Pls advise.

jackalhunter , the hunt is for a Buffalo Bull.
The Buffalo needs to be hunted before the 31st of March. We cannot hunt it after that.

Additional animals are :

Impala $ 200
Zebra $ 900
Waterbuck $ 1 500


Other plains game including Wildebeest( $ 850 ) , Kudu( $ 1 200 ) , Nyala ($ 2 500 ),warthog ($ 200) and Bushpig( $ 450) can be hunted on ranches in the area outside the reserve.

Great offer Esepcially if the buffalo in the picture is rekoned as a management bull. This is a dagga boy of my dreams. Good luck with the offer and the poachers

I am interested, PM sent.

I've had some questions concerning the dates.

This hunt can only take place with the last hunting day being 31 march 2014.
The regular price on Buffalo hunts after this date is $ 15 000 with an observer coming along for free.

Happy hunting

Oh - look what happened...

Australia Wins Again

This is NOT helping you know

lets start another thread , shall we ? I'm sure all the good people here on AR do not want to read about the Proteas constant gracious acts of letting a inferior team win , just so the inferior ( to their defence , amateur , I might add )team at least have SOMETHING to brag about. But as you know , us South Africans are great guys , we give Buffalo hunts away , train inexperienced cricket teams and even let them win. all in the name of good sportsmanship. The good news is that we are colonising the South Pacific slowly but surely and after a few decades of subtle inbreeding the quality of Sport in those countries should drastically improve to the point where we can have a 1 on 1 game. Cheers Mate ( I was serious about another thread though )

my work here is done anyway!!

This Old Dagga Bull was taken yesterday by Mark R aka The Pirate. His first shot at 30 yards , he brought the Bull down at 12 yards after it didn't read the manual about Buffalo running away from the hunter after the first shot.... Never a dull moment in Africa.

Congrats Mark

Sounds very exciting!! Congrats Mark!!

Awesome " Dagga Boy " well done to everyone involved. Jan, the first buff picture you show in your original post must be one of the nicest buff I've seen here!

Thanks Thierry . Sorry , yes it should read " Dagga Boy " , I was in a hurry when typing.

Ok, back in Oz but not quite home. Awesome trip and will post up a report in a few days.

Damn safa stole my rum....

Cheers,
Mark.

Well done and nice buffalo. Look forward to reading the report.

Good looking buffalo. These hunts never seem to come when I have the time and money.... Great job and congrats. Bruce

The second of these Buffalo has been hunted by one of our members. Also a very exciting hunt on a beautiful old bull taken at 25 yards. We are seeing hundreds of buffalo per day. I'll leave it up to the hunter to post his pictures and his report upon his return. Thanks to the AR members for supporting this worthy cause.

Jan,

Heck of deal producing a very nice trophy. Hard to be that.

Congrats,

Mark
