A client had to cancel a Buffalo hunt that he booked (not with me) in one of the areas I hunt on near Phalaborwa next to KNP and this hunt is being offered to me at a reduced price. (Regular price of the hunt less the deposit already paid by the client)
There is only one permit for a buffalo bull left in this area for 2009. Should the hunt not be conducted in 2009, the permit will expire which means this hunt has to be taken before year-end. Many of these bulls come in from Kruger / Greater Kruger due to problem elephants' destroying of fences and anyone who has been to Kruger will know that the trophy quality of Kruger bulls are exceptional. Therefore; getting a chance at a solid 40"+ (and even bigger) bull over 7 days is very likely.
The regular price of this hunt would be $16,889 inclusive of Trophy Fee, Daily Rates and Taxes so at an all inclusive package price of $13,750 I believe this is a very reasonable offer.
The Package Price includes the following:
Trophy Fee for 1 X Buffalo
7 X Hunting days
Road Transportation from and to OR Tambo Airport
Accommodations, All meals, beverages and daily laundry service
Fully equipped hunting vehicle
Services of an experienced DG qualified PH, trackers, skinners and field staff
Field Prep of trophies
Transport of trophies to SA-based Dipping/shipping Agent
All that is not included is transportation prior to and after contracted period of hunt, dipping, packing, shipping and taxidermy charges. The rest is all covered.
If you're interested in this hunt and are also interested in hunting other species while you're here this can be arranged.
