hi baits can be plains game up to 2 years of age at 50% of normal trophy fee not including roan. a buff or hippo can be taken as per trophy fee list which would be the norm in most lion hunts anyway. lion hunts in the gma`s will be $20,000.00 to $30,000.00 more than this hunt, so in relative terms it is good value.

Mike,

Agreed good value in some terrific country.

Cheers

also here is some info. this property is approx 48,000 acres and is "fenced" but open on the luangwa river frontage. due to the terrain the fence is porous and most animals can enter and leave especially ele that walk through it....the river side when the rains stop is no barrier, as it is not near the rivers edge and animals can walk the river bed freely and cross from the other side.so in theory its fenced but in reality......pretty open.

When I was last there the 'fence' was lying on the ground where a herd of elephant had wondered through.

You will shoot a big free ranging Lion here if the elephants don't get you first.

I guess if the hunter shoots his Hippo and Buffalo right off the bat , he'd be good with baits for a while.

Looks like a great offer.

Mbezi safaris have an agreement with J Rigby & Co, and have a Rigby .275 cal rifle, and are taking delivery of a single square bridge Rigby in .450 Rigby cal shortly . these rifles and a Dakota arms rifle in .416 Rigby may be used on this hunt at no cost.the .450 is open sights and the .416 is scoped. cheers mike
