Hello Saeed and thanks for chiming in!

The logic behind the non refundable 10g deposit (although transferable) is because of the costs involved initially. There is the leopard license fee from the govt which isn’t cheap. After the client has placed his deposit it also accounts for all pre baiting from the time of deposit until the hunter arrives up to a max of 3 months!! This is as I’m sure you’re aware, a huge amount of time, gas and bait that also costs a fair bit. To be absolutely clear, if a hunter places his deposit and some unforeseen circumstances arise, my outfitter would still be accommodating and roll everything over to the following year despite needing to eat some of these initial costs. We are trying to be as openly transparent with our potential clients so they can feel absolutely confident in booking. There’s a reason his success rates at 96% for so many consecutive years.

Hopefully this explanation helps anyone on the fence!

This has gone full retard, now even hunt deposits should be fully refundable? So, a company holds a date for you, takes their product off the market and you decide at the last minute for whatever reason to not go, leave them hanging and they should refund your deposit? You can't run a business that way. Consider this a free bump

Anytime an outfit asks for a NONREFUNDABLE payment, except for a deposit to keep a specific date for you, tied with a time scale, I get worried.

A non refundable deposit, which must be claimed back several months before the start of the hunt, is fine and understandable.

Anything else, to me, is unacceptable.

Each of you of course are at liberty to accept anything you wish.

If the leopard somehow was not actually taken then 7000 USD would be deducted from total hunt price.



This hunt is is to be scheduled during the prime months of May and June which also coincides with the kudu rut! Due to my outfitters success rates, dates will be made based on the time frame he chooses for best results! He has a system in place that works and he is not willing to break with his methods and reduce his success percentages!! If you’ve ever dreamed of hunting and actually shooting a big Tom this is your chance! First deposit secures this hunt of a lifetime. After hunting with this outfitter I can attest to the high number of animals in his area and the trophy quality. His dik dik population is something to be seen and if your keen I promise you a beauty!

If you’re interested in this offer please do send me a WhatsApp as it’s the best method of reaching me!

Andrew

This says he is representing the outfit!

What is it?

Andrew, if you are an agent offering hunts, that is fine.

But if you are posting this to help a friend, we don’t allow that.
