NAMIBIA: Hunting Namibia With Aru Game Lodges

Great news today. A Kudu that got away from us was found by our PH! Long story but Jasper had to take a difficult neck shot and the bull moved just as he shot. A LONG followup ensued to no avail. At least we have the skull and horns of this great trophy coming home now!
It is nice to hunt with such good people who look after you even after you are gone. They didn’t have to spend any effort on our behalf but worked hard after we were gone to get us our trophy.

Man those are some awesome trophies! You must have some photography experience those are fantastic pictures!
And getting to share it all with you'r son, priceless! Congratulations
 
What a great adventure! Congratulations on some fine trophies as well.

I'm planning to do a similar trip in 2022. It was originally going to be a 40th bday gift to myself, but my now 7 yr old son is starting to squeeze his way into the plans!

So what... You become a movie star and now change your look ??? Your not gonna go all Katlyn Jenner on us are you? Lmao.

Awesome hunt Phillip. And some great trophies. Your son must have been ecstatic.
 
What a fantastic adventure! Your son will remember that trip for many years. A wonderful gift to him for certain.
My now 13 year old son talks regularly of our Namibia trip last summer. He really matured a lot on that trip.

What are you going to do with the giraffe skin?

Is your son shooting an R8 professional?
 
Thanks for the fine report Philip. I’m glad you were able to take your son.

Good Morning x84958
I have read your post about Jamy Traut and your hunt in Caprivi. I am planning such a hunt for 2026, Oct with Jamy.
Just a question , because I will combine Caprivi and Panorama for PG, is the daily rate the same the week long, I mean the one for Caprivi or when in Panorama it will be a PG rate ?
thank you and congrats for your story.
Best regards
Philippe from France

Hello Doug,
I am Philippe from France and plan to go hunting Caprivi in 2026, Oct.
I have read on AH you had some time in Vic Falls after hunting. May I ask you with whom you have planned / organized the Chobe NP tour and the different visits. (with my GF we will have 4 days and 3 nights there)
Thank in advance, I will appreciate your response.
Merci
Philippe
