Just another way to skin a cat. Details: Minimum Equipment Requirements for Bowhunting in Zimbabwe - Class A Game Bow Kinetic Energy 80 ft/lbs Arrow Weight 700 grain (Elephant, Hippo, Buffalo) - Class B Game Bow Kinetic Energy 77 ft/lbs Arrow Weight 695 grain Broadheads with only two cutting edges (Lion, Giraffe, Eland) - Class C Game Bow Kinetic Energy 70 ft/lbs Arrow Weight 618 grain (Leopard, Crocodile, Kudu, Oryx / Gemsbok, Hartebeest, Wildebeest, Zebra, Nyala, Sable Antelope, Waterbuck, Tsessebe, etc.) - Class D Game Bow Kinetic Energy 56 ft/lbs Arrow Weight 463 grain (Warthog, Impala, Reedbuck, Sitatunga, Duiker, Steenbok, Jackal, Game Birds, etc.) Bowhunting in Zimbabwe may only be done with compound bows. Bowhunting with recurve bows, longbows or crossbows is not permitted in Zimbabwe unless a special permit has been issued for which the safari operator must apply for six months prior to the start of the bow hunt. This special bowhunting permit comes at a substantial cost.

$1500! That is a bargain! I paid $3500 in 2015 and $100 a day for a "government representative" to tag along. Was cheaper to bring firearms in. Oh well........... | |||

I have been told there is no bow permit. | |||

bcap, that's odd; both of my Zim PH's says there is, and that was one and two days ago. Zim law: "Importation of Bows & Arrows into Zimbabwe It is legal for hunters to import bows for bowhunting purposes into Zimbabwe and just as with a rifle, a special hunting permit is required at a cost of US$ 1,500."

I am double checking myself to be sure also. I have heard about the permit but when I ask my ph he said no but maybe he was thinking guns and did not see I said bow. | |||

You need bow permit for dangerous game only. I am coming from moz were if I am lucky I will hunt a buff and just have bow for plains game in zim. Hope someone take this offer should be a great bow hunt, | |||

If I recall, plains game permit (in 2015) was $1500. Dangerous game permit was $3500 and required a government rep to "hunt" with you. That was another $100 a day. ALSO, all dangerous game hunts had to be filmed. This required a photographer which also cost. At the end of the hunt, the film had to be surrendered to the government. I did get a copy though. I was hunting buffalo at the same time the Cecil the lion debacle happened. Like I said, this was in 2015. Hopefully a lot of this has changed for the better.......... | |||

Seems like a big fuss. Save is private, normally you don't even need a "ranger". Russ Gould - Whitworth Arms LLC BigfiveHQ.com, Large Calibers and African Safaris Doublegunhq.com, Fine English, American and German Double Rifles and Shotguns VH2Q.com, Varmint Rifles and Gear | |||

Well fortunately Russ, my friends/PH's don't break the law. And if the Zim Gov't says you need both, you best have both. Maybe they will change their mind tomorrow and forget about it.

Yeah, gotta agree with L David. Long way away from home to get in trouble over something like that. I did not like paying the fees. Not going to lie. But those were the conditions to hunt legally. Agreed, makes little sense. The "government scout" that MUST accompany you makes even less sense. We walked the first one they assigned us into the ground the first two days. She (yes, it was a woman) left on the third day and we thought we had shed that anchor. They sent a substitute the next day. Rrrrrrr.... | |||

What area of the Save? | |||

Not suggesting anyone "break the law", I know the Zim govt requirements for bow hunts, but I would recommend considering doing the same hunt in RSA where none of this fuss is required and the hunt will cost half the money. And no, I am not offering a hunt either, do your own homework.

I hunted PG, Leopard. Hippo and Ele in Zimbabwe in 2015 (rifle) - we had a game scout with us but no photographer and nothing was filmed.. If there were individual permits for plainsgame and dangerous game I never saw them itemized... Just daily rate and trophy fees.. Must have been archery only requirements... Hunt with a bow in RSA - much easier and killing a buff at 20yds with a bow is exciting regardless of the country...

Yes, they were requirements for hunting DANGEROUS game with a bow. I might ad, the Save was an unbelievable place. Was by far the best safari I have ever been on. Plenty of game. Cant go wrong booking a hunt there! | |||
