Outfitter: Westfalen Hunting Safaris

PH: John Van Der Westhuizen

Dates: June 10-20, 2015 - 10 Hunting days
August 1-10, 2015 – 10 Hunting days
October 4-14, 2015 – 10 Hunting days
November 3-28, 2015 - Full time available, though typically hot towards the middle of November


Our main Namibian outfitter, Westfalen Hunting Safaris, has a few openings this year and needs to get them filled. We've been booking with them since 2008 and have had 100% satisfied clients (including some AR members). Westfalen's properties are two separate parcels totaling more than 100,000 acres of un-fenced, free range hunting. Here they have 15 huntable species of big game including oryx, kudu, warthog, and the damara Dik-Dik, an animal only found in this part of Namibia. New for 2015 they have added an 18,000 acre game ranch option for clients wanting to collect a few additional species not found in the free range area. With fuel prices being so low, we are including the round trip transfer (normally $600) to camp.

Hunters need to fly into Windhoek where they will be picked up at the airport and driven to camp. Camp is located 5 hours NW of Windhoek, north of the town of Outjo. Camp consists of comfortable rock roundavel's under thatch, with hot and cold running water, flush toilets and two beds. The camp, named "Elephant Camp" get's it's name because a herd of desert elephants frequents the lake near the outdoor dining area. It's really one of the more beautiful settings for a camp that I've been to. Hunting parties are never mixed, the food is honestly the best I've ever had in Africa (many clients will attest to this), and this is one of the nicest, most honest family run operations I've ever dealt with.
Hunting is done via spot and stalk from the granite Kopies, with most shot distances being under 200 yards. They are set up for bow hunting, though compound bows are preferred as we've had guys hunting with long bows have a little difficulty.

Here's a hunt report from an AR member for those who are interested:

Clients interested in hunting Cheetah (not importable to US) should take a look at the hunt report link I posted above as Tendrams shot a great cheetah on his hunt and saw multiple others. It's a great place to hunt them in their free range, natural environment with moderate success. Expect to see hundreds of oryx each day on this hunt, and lots of kudu, warthog, hartebeest, and springbok as well. Clients looking for Damara Dik-Dik should also consider this hunt as there is a very high concentration of them in some areas of the property, and success has been 100% in previous seasons. The quota is very limited on them, so if interested let me know so I can try and reserve one.

No other way to put it....this hunt is probably the best plains game value on the continent today. It's not too often you get MORE than you pay for in the hunting world but it seems that this is standard operating procedure at Westfalen. These operators are wonderful to work with, the food (as mentioned) is outstanding, lodging is top shelf, and the hunting unbeatable. I also wrote an article about the hunt for those who are interested.
