We’re hunting on 10,000 acres of pristine Northern Kwa Zulu Natal bushveld. You’ll see a fence – TWICE . First when we enter the property and the second time when we leave the property after your hunt... This area is one of SA's jewels... as several AR members who have hunted this area with me will attest to... Ask me for details of references and I’ll be happy to give them to you!
To book or get more info please contact me on chris@ct-safaris.com.
Kind regards,
Chris

CaptMikeChris, what might be a reasonable expectation for size and might this be possible sometime between 9/4 and 9/21 of this year?

ChrisTroskieCapt Mike,
These are pics of three of the 5 Nyalas taken with us last year...
The smallest we took was 26.5" (not pictured) the largest just under 30". It is my honest opinion that you will have an above average chance of bagging a 27" + Nyala in this area. There truly are monsters in the area.
I have availability between Sept 1st and Sept 14th. The rest of the month is booked.
Regards,
Chris

PostDriverChris, are your bushbuck the Limpopo or Cape variety? I'd like to hunt a Nyala and Cape bushbuck.

double kChris,
How are things going this year? In 5 days it will be exactly one year since I got my Nyala. Wish I was coming back this year. Take care and good luck
PS I think the bottom picture is the best. Just my humble opinion.

ChrisTroskieHey Kevin,
Things are going great! Was sipping on a Crown Royal just this weekend and thinking of you folks... Send Art, Sharon and Dad my regards!
Well, this year is out of the question but we're looking forward to hopefully seeing you next year for Buff! You take care too!
You're right - that is a handsome specimen in the last picture... talking about the Nyala of course - not about you!
