Good Day All my name is Gary Hopkins I have some very good opportunities for Buffalo hunts on Sondelani Ranch South of Bulawayo

The area is 20000 acres in size and does have a perimeter game fence surrounding the property, however there is no internal fencing

There is a very comfortable lodge on the property and the area is accessed from Bulawayo being roughly 2.5 to 3 hour drive from Bulawayo Airport.

Buffalo Bulls harvested can be between 9 to 12 years old or older thus being solid bossed mature bulls. Anywhere from mid thirties to low to mid forties.

I am prepared to offer extra buffalo on these hunts for the advertised trophy fee if permitting and quota allows

I'd suggest you give www.Imgur.com a try for posting pictures. If you go this route, make sure you select the "large thumbnail" size when posting your pics. Good luck.

Welcome to AR, Gary. I hunted with you way back in 1994 and got a really nice bull elephant and a lioness. And the opportunity to know that I will never take Larium again.

You are a very nice guy and even way back then - a hell of a good PH. Good luck.

I hunted with Gary in 2019 at Matetsi Unit 1 and we had a fabulous time.

Great guy, great PH.

Hi Bigbear sorry I have taken a while to answer just arrived back from safari today. Yes I did luckily survive a plane crash in the Selous and I do remember meeting a few guys whilst I was hunting L1 and Bruce K3 on the boundary. Did I meet you whilst there was a bushfire or was it on the airstrip, anyways thanks for jolting my memory

Folks,

I've represented Gary for years and have had several clients with him on Sondelani and elsewhere. He is a top notch PH and Sondelani is a bargain if you really want an up close and personal buffalo/PG hunt. As the pic show there are also some excellent trophies on Sondelani.
