Mark,
Have you or Adam hunted with these guys?

Ross,

Hopefully next year. It just would have cost me so much to change my reservations to include a visit with LaBips that I just could not do it. I do have an extensive reference list of recent hunters that have hunted with LaBips that I can share with clients or chronic tyre kickers like you .

Arno Schultz the operator of LaBips has been on top of every request for info that I've had providing very detailed responses. So far I am very impressed.

Mark,
I went to La Bips website and found it to be informative with photos of a very nice camp. However, I have a concern....I can't find any info about the PHs or comments from prior clients. Nothing in the Huntreport and Google searches yielded zip.

With strong due diligence and some luck I have been fortunate to have (so far) avoided hunt disasters. So when I see a nice camp sitting inside 100,000 low fence acres and no mention of the operation in "the usual places", the red flags go up.

Can you help us out with a little info...like who is Arno Schultz and why have we not heard of this place?

I'm not trying to be difficult, just careful!

Send me a regular e-mail addy and I'll send you a pretty extensive recent reference list. I think you'll find there are literally hundreds of good and some very good PH's all over Africa that have never been mentioned on AR or The Hunting Report. I literally hear about a hunt operator new to me a couple times a month. Operations with less history like Arno's are not often in the limelight but that does not mean they will deliver any less of a quality experience.
