Just discovered this site . Amazing amounts of information, exactly what I was looking for. 56 years old looking for info to plan my first trip to Africa. Live in Silverton, Or. USA. My wife will be along and possibly son and friend (s). Cape Buffalo first priority and plains game. Looking for area with largest Cape Buffalo and a traditional type camp. Budget will be important, but this is one of the big items left on my bucket list.
World's most popular community & resource for hunting in Africa since 2007

Welcome to AH.
The search begins. Look in the hunting deals history and you will find what you'll need.
There are Buffalo in RSA, may not be a real traditional camp though.
Louis (Sprial Horn), Jacques (Hartzview), Chris (CT Safaris), Kemp (Leeukop), Jaco (Kwalata), Theo (Skinafrica), etc.
Karl (ndumo), Jerome (Ozondjahe) in Namibia
Wayne,(Nyamazana) Zimbabwe.
Good Luck.

Zambia - again some quality heads from areas.
Zimbabwe - some good areas and ranches for nice cape buffalo.

Namibia - on the strip a few good cape buffalo are taken
Botswana - a few areas is they are open for hunting.
so take your pick.
What plains game are you looking for.
With a cape buffalo as your primary target what other animals will be you be interested in going after.
Also will you Wife and or son be hunting or observing? (camera men for your safari)

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.

Currently doing a load development on a .404 Jeffrey... it's always surprising to load .423 caliber bullets into a .404 caliber rifle. But we love it when we get 400 Gr North Fork SS bullets to 2300 FPS, those should hammer down on buffalo. Next up are the Cutting Edge solids and then Raptors... load 200 rounds of ammo for the customer and on to the next gun!
