Don't want to sound like I am overselling this, but, this really is a great hunt, great ph, great area, and great dates. I am sure I will get some feedback from guys who have been here, with Paddy at this time.

Just Added:
I have been working with Samaras to make this more appealing.

We can do a 2x1 Companion hunt, where the two hunters share the entire quota of one license.

One has Lion, One has Leopard, one shoots Elephant, split all the plainsgame Hippo, Croc, Sable, Eland, 3 Buffalo to split between you, etc.

He will do this for no additional day rate! The companion hunter must pay all government fees for a 21-day license ($14,000)

So, this is a good father son/daughter or two good friends (No JeffH, I will not go with you on this hunt).

The Accounting looks like this:
21-day hunt $41,300
Day rate second hunter $0
License fees and all gov fees second hunter $14,000
Grand Total $55,300
Total per hunter $27,650
Charter would be $1950/person with 2 hunters splitting the $3900 charter.

Same inclusions and exclusions as above.

Wendell,

Come on now. If I have to put trophy fees on my ads so do you.

Mark

Yes, I guess people would want to know that!

New Companion Hunter pricing posted

No alcohol? I could drop 41 grand plus trophy fees and they wont even buy me a beer?? Sheesh ... only in Tanzania!!

Yep, I know. There are a few guys who do it that way, Pasanisi is another one who does it and he is one of the biggest operators in Tanzania.

Instead of spreading the alcohol bill out over everyone, he figures, those who use it pay for it. It is not expensive, just needs to cover his cost on it.

Dang Wendell and I thought we could go on this as father (me) daughter (you)

all kidding aside this looks like a good deal for Tanzania

Buy it for me Daddy!!!!

Aw jeez, that's even too creepy for me to type.

TTT

Paddy is one of the best ph's I have ever had tha pleasure to hunt with. This is a craking deal. If I could i surely would...

Ditto Diego's comment. I took this hunt last year from Wendell and had a spectacular time. I am doing everything I can to try to do it again. It will be hot, but the elephant will really be moving. Very few bugs as well. You will have a blast with Paddy.
