MARK H. YOUNGBig leopard for '13 Reduced daily/ Increased trophy fee
Forever Africa Safaris/Terry Anders is offering what I think is an amazing price on a leopard/PG safari. I've often seen the comment that hunters would like to see a lower daily rate and a higher trophy fee on DG. This hunt offers just that. The daily fee is well below the norm at $600 per day and the trophy fee increasaed to $6000.
This hunt is offered on Broadwell where Terry has secured the whole quota for '13. Broadwell is a 10,000 acre fenced private property 50 km from the airport in Bulawayo. I hunted Broadwell last year for a couple of days and a good variety of game including big leopard are definitely there in good numbers plus the camp is very comfy with permanent stone and thatch chalets. Also a hunt on Broadwell will offer camp and area exclusivity for the duration of your safari.
Broadwell is in easy driving distance from Victoria Falls and Hwange park making a combination hunt and photo safari very easy to do. Terry has his own photo tour outfit allowing us to organize a photo/hunting safari seamlessly all with one company.
