I hunted there in 2009, plenty of buffalo then and tremendous amounts of zebra and blue wildebeest, plus the other common plains game, and croc and hippo in the river.
I struck out on lion, but had a good hunt none the less.

Still very good buffalo numbers, unfortunately I’m not very clued up on how to upload photos of buff hunted over the last few seasons.

Do you have a website? What are your prices for a buff hunt?

Thanks very much for the help

Chief Tshovani and Thompson Zvinavashe have grabbed 50 percent shareholding in Impala Ranch, again without bringing in even a cent. But Zvinavashe, son of the late former commander of Zimbabwe’s Defence Forces, General Vitalis Zvinavashe, has a letter of “use of land on caretakership basis” for the 1885ha ranch. The late Zvinavashe’s real first name was Thompson, a name he also gave his son.

Impala Ranch was auctioned by National Parks, The company I work for bought it on public auction. Zvinavashe was allocated a small piece of land that was formerly part of impala ranch(LESS THAN 20%). He has a separate quota for his small section and this in no way affects how we manage and run Impala Ranch. I suggest you get your facts together before you publish something like this that has the potential to damage the reputation of someone that is actually putting in the time, money and effort to conserve and protect wildlife.

Success rate on leopard?

Since taking over management of the property we decided not to hunt Leopard for 5 years to enable us to carry out surveys etc. Through spoor surveys and data from sightings we have decided to hunt them this year as the numbers are as good as any in the Save Valley Conservancy. I believe this hunt will be successful but one can never be sure with Leopard. The success rate from the previous operator was as high as 75% I believe.

Adriaan is a top Professional Hunter and runs a great operation and how the area has thrived under him is testament to that and is what we are striving for as hunters and operators in Zimbabwe!
