Before we even get to prices, where is this? Tanzania doesn't narrow it down very much. Two, I thought elephant was still closed, did I miss something? Also, daily's are suspiciously low and trophy fees are not comprehensible.

Will see how this comes out. I took advantage of the offer. 21 day hunt. Full bag. Leaving on the 14 october. Very excited, only way to be able to afford this was jumping on this offer. Will do a full report when I am back. Taking Tim Martin of the osprey filming company with me so good photos and videos should follow. Wish me luck

Steel the owner of this outfit is nearlly useless with internet but comms through the phone and whattapp are fluent. He has a big bunch of my money so I hope things go straight. The deal is an absolute killer. I have never found a cheaper deal in Taz for a full bag. I thought I would never be able to pay for a full bag but miracles happen.

I have yet to have, use, mention a computer whilst in the field, during any of those.

I'd FAR rather spend my time in the bush with a guy whom specializes in "bushcraft" rather than computer competence.

He seems apologetic, and sincere in his lack of skills.

I've stated before. If you limit your hunting universe to ONLY the outfits whom frequent these sites, you are doing yourselves a real disservice.

I hunted with Wayne Grant last year. He's probably the most competent Professional Hunter I've hunted with. He is not computer fluent AT ALL.

Are we looking for good experiences in the bush or bitchin internet sites.

Come on Steve would you spend your hard-earned on this offer?

I found the AD to be complicated and unprofessional. A hunt is dictated purely by the quality of PH. A few pictures of camp, trophies etc would also be nice.

I do hope everything goes great for you though!

Looking forward to the follow up.

I would generally agree with that. The exception is Tanzania, which has been over-priced for many many years.

If it takes this Covid crisis to de-escalate the price of a Tanzania classical safari, I'm OK with that.

Jerry and Anton I have a ton of respect for both of you. But top areas in Namibia, Tanzania, Zambia, Zimbabwe and Mozambique all cost the same!

My Tanzanian hunts in some cases are CHEAPER than Zambian hunts, transfer flights included.

There are operators that charge incredible fees but comparing the Government cost of doing business between the countries, the Tanzanian model actually is not bad at all. Take it from someone that's been there and done that on the OUTFITTING side.

Some Outfitts paying up to US$85000.- per Hunting Block/Year in West Tanzania.
How many Buffalo hunts you have to sell to make the Break even ?
Outfitting in this part of Africa can be a Nightmare Cost wise

Absolutely ridiculous results. Left camp early because I run out of funds and did not trust myself in not shotingone of the leopards we had feeding. shoot a big lion, eland, waterbuck, impala, reedbuck, baboon And hartebeest. Between 2 friends, that jumped at this deal per my request, and me we have shoot and recovered 8 buffalos in 10 days. I, myself have MISSED THREE BUFFALO, a first for me with mi 500 NE. I like to shoot opensights but I am etting old and my eyesight is not what it used to be. Readjusted distance I was shooting at and all went well. Will weite a report in a few days and will ask someone to post photos because I am useless with photoposting. As a side note, they gave me 4 buffalos on my 21 day license due to covid!
Incredible trip and amount of game
