Outfitter: SHANGAAN HUNTERS - GLENN STOCKIL

Agent: Global Hunting Resources

Location: Senuko - Save Valley Zimbabwe

Species: Lion

Dates: The full month of May or October 2010


Folks - We have an excellent price available on this 2010 Lion hunt in the Save Valley with Glenn Stockil at SHANGAAN HUNTERS. We thought the lion hunt was sold, but now its back on the table. Many of you have seen lately the quality of the lions coming from the Save, and Senuko is no exception. I did this lion hunt in 2008 with Glenn, in mid May. I personally saw 26 lions, and took a great lion on the 11th day of the hunt. He has the whole month of May open, as well as October. I would recommend May as 1st choice, and Glenn would prefer to do it in May, but it can be done in October as well.


NORMAL PRICE: 18-day lion hunt is $45,000.00 plus $5,500.00 trophy fee

DISCOUNT PRICE: 18-day lion hunt is $25,200.00 plus $6,000.00 trophy fee Total Price $31,200.00

This is an $19,300.00 discount!!!!

Additional Fees:
D&P - $500.00
RT road transfer from Harare - $1,000.00
2% govt levy on daily rate
4% govt levy on trophy fees

Below are a couple pictures of the lion I shot with Glenn in 2008.

Smoking deal!

Wow!

You're killing me!!!

Brett - Come on man, get off the fence and just go! Its not gonna get much better than this.

Aaron:

You're killing me! Someone needs to grab this one fast, it's a steal.

BA - Ya, this could have been you! Instead, your going buffalo & elephant hunting again - good luck!

Well, I have recommended Glenn before and have no reservation about recommending him again. I would take this deal if I was not already booked with Gordon in Doma and if I could afford it!

I hunted right next door last year on Hammond. Lots of lions around.

I can only wish I had the time to do this...if I did I would...

It's a screaming deal and I'm trying to talk myself into it, but I just can't justify taking the time away from my practice in my first year. Just for torture's sake what are the animals on quota and what would be the "bait animals"?

Brett

Brett - Most all of the plains game species will be available. We appear to have all the buffalo sold, but I have 2 guys that paid a deposit in 2009 for buffalo, and have now went quiet, and we are not sure what the heck they are doing! So one could be available by the time the hunt comes, but do not count on it.

Bait - that's easy!! Giraffe and Zebra, primarily giraffe.

Brett:

Just go. You think you'll have more time in your second, third, or fourth year of business? Nope. No way. Trust me, it only gets busier.

When I saw the deal, I GRABBED the phone. Since then, Aaron and I have corresponded and I've already eliminated myself from contention as I simply cannot be gone on May 13. No how. No way. Take away May 13 and the hunt would be sold . . . TO ME!

The 777 leaves ATL on May 2 and is only half full. The rates are great. I could have flown to JNB for $1300. Figure a couple hundred more to get to HRE. Return leg on May 22 or 23 is lightly booked as well.

This is prime time in a prime area. Established operator and PH. Not only a great deal, this is CHEAP. This is THE DEAL I was looking for in 2010. I'd like to see someone that I know get the hunt.

Please buy it.

Damn Will, that was good! If the lawyer gig doesn't work out for ya, you would definitely have a career in the booking business.

Ms AZwriter went to pilates this am, came home, and asked me if it was okay if she went on a 4 hour run with her friend (who I call Ms Hotbody). I said, "What do I care what you do? Do what you want."

She thanked me. Ten minutes later I saw this posting and told her there was a hell of deal on a lion hunt.

"You don't need another lion!" she said.

I reminded her she got to go running, so she said, "Oh, go ahead."

But I am like Will; I am speaking at a conference in Boston during that period and I have to be there.

Aw, she's European.

I hope somebody snags one of these SAVE lion hunts! Brett there is rarely a "perfect time", I am hunting Zim in May, arranged last year, and of course now we have several large/complex projects before/during/after, but you gotta just carve out a few weeks and go for it!

Brett - The pressure is mounting!!!

Brett,

If I were you, I would go.

You should take a poll of those who have hunted lions. See how many wished they would not have gone.

Nothing wrong with getting a little feedback.

I would have picked this year to start a new business and to take my wife to Germany for two weeks. So I am one broke guy. Seems like quite a good deal to me.

Hartley,
Reconsider. This is the best deal on a lion you will ever see. I'll go as an observer and carry your gun. Seriously.

If I was remotely interested in hunting lion, I would buy this hunt from you Aaron. But lion just aren't on my list.

Great deal in a super area!

If anyone is interested in this hunt, I made a video of my lion hunt on the property adjoining Senuko last year. I will send a copy if you want to see it. It should give you a good idea of the terrain & game populations. PM me if you want a copy.

I'm looking into it guys. I think I can do it in October for sure, but May will be a stretch!

Brett

That is exciting Brett, better lock it in for October before its gone!

Aaron has to ask the outfitter some questions and then get back to me. Hopefully I'll have it all arranged by tomorrow!!! We'll see!

Brett

It's Christmas eve!!!

You aren't kidding!

Brett

The zebras were hung by the bait trees with care with hopes that a big lion might soon be there.

Brett,
Please do this hunt... you will save me some serious jack if you do! This posting has really been torturing me! I have even spoke to the wife about it...

Good for you Brett, go get a lion.

Its funny how are poor wives have to hear about these wonderful last minute deals

Hopefully I will be able to save a few marriages today. I'm just waiting on a few answers. Just doing my part folks! .....just doing my part!!!!

Brett

Go Brett!! Think of the "Woofing Rights" at the Giraffe next January!

Sorry guys no deal. I was only able to do it in October and Aaron did everything he could to make it happen. Unfortunately Shangaan Hunters didn't really want to sell the hunt in October if at all possible. They ended up selling it for the May date. Oh well. I'm picking up my first double rifle in a few weeks and I've decided to move up my booking with Danny McCallum Safaris to next year instead of 2012. Thanks all.

Yep, Brett & I did our best but the May dates were really the issue! Brett was fully prepared to do it, but May just couldn't work into his schedule! Sorry Brett!!!!

DMS will be a great 2012 safari!!!

It would Aaron, but I'm trying to get it done in 2011!
