101 (or more) Things to Know Before Hunting Africa

Maybe someone mentioned it and I didn’t see it. Contracting someone for pre-approved gun permits. I fly in to OR Tambo and have a gentleman named Mr. X (not secret code) do our pre-approved permits. Super easy to do and $130 per permit which is steep but I love the ease. I also contract him for VIP meet and greet. $150 for the group, they meet you at the plane door, walk you through passport control (open another line for your group) walk past customs, then straight to meet Mr X in the meeting area. You will spend about 5 minutes per person in the SAPS office then out the door. I have done the trip several different ways and Mr. X is the way to go! Super fast and super easy!
 
Yes the pre approved rifle permits, from Aftons, Africa Sky or Rifle Permits is money well spent.

Another tip. If you hunting dangerous game learn to sight down your barrel / point shoot if you have optics, it can get gamey when the critter is up close trying to make you have a bad day.

Well spent $ on your trip. I would not go without Mr. X or others who do the same job.

Morning Rob, Any feeling for how the 300 H&H shoots? How's the barrel condition?

Hello. I see you hunted with Sampie recently. If you don't mind me asking, where did you hunt with him? Zim or SA? And was it with a bow? What did you hunt?

I am possibly going to book with him soon.
