Acting on behalf of John Hunt of Georgia Safaris in Zimbabwe I’m offering the following hunts for 2014. I am South African and run and maintain John’s website and offer hunts on his behalf – I do not hunt there myself neither do I have anything to do with Georgia Safaris other than to market hunts on their behalf. John Hunt is a registered Zimbabwean PH and Outfitter and does all the hunting himself, I am merely acting as a booking agent. All hunts take place in the area South and West of Bulawayo down to Gwanda and West Nicholson areas on private land. John has been a Zimbabwean PH for 22 years now.

Upon acceptance of the hunt I will send you a fully completed SAPS 520 form for your convenience for your transit between South Africa and Zimbabwe, an invitation letter from John and the Zimbabwean application form for importation of your firearms to Zimbabwe.

John will be at the DSC show in Dallas 9 – 12 January 2014 at booths 3528 and 3529.

John Hunt is a true gentleman and as honest as they come. Any-one who goes on this hunt with have a awesome hunt with a great PH in John. I can vouch for him.

I have hunted with John three separate times. Good PH.

I killed my Leopard with John in 2006 and a year later John and his family spent a week with me here in New York City.

I can't speak highly enough of John. Besides being an expert Leopard hunter he is the epitome of the word Gentleman. With his gentle demeanor in mind, it is hard to believe that he saw allot of action in the Rhodesia/Zimbabwe war.

Anyone who spends time in the bush with John is a lucky man.

Thank you kindly gentlemen.

John is indeed a great hunter and host.

Not the easiest post to read - a little spacing between offers would really help.

Peter - David Boothe here. Good to see you and John hooked up and are working together. It appears to have been worthwhile for me to share your contact information with him. I would like to take you up on your offer but not possible this time. Tell John I said hello and I will be back to hunt with him soon. Is Wayne Bartlett still guiding for him? If so, tell him hello as well. Cheers

So true and I apologise. My computer skills are more than knowing where to switch it on and off but lacks when it was in nice colums. Unfortunately this did not happen when I pasted it.

David B, thanks will tell John when I see him in a week or so.

And so it seems halfway there. Thanks for pointing it out.

John is currently at DSC at booths 3528 and 3529. His phone number while in the USA is 682 217 3600.

He will also be at the SCI show in Las Vegas from 5 - 8 February 2014 and can be reached at the same number.

Hi Pieter

Just a quick note to say I commend you on your post and your agreement with John. Alot of South Africans think that Zimbabweans unfairly judge them for their involvement in Zim. Most of the time the reason been is that they get involved in the hunts themselves . You agreement with John is straight forward and bove board- I wish you both the best! Cheers Buzz
