Hello friends! I am a new member from Minnesota. I have hunted deer and bear and am planning my first African hunt . Looking at South Africa and interested in buffalo. Been thinking about this for many years. Plan on using a 375 H and H. I am overwhelmed with finding an outfitter. Any tips would be appreciated. Happy to be here!

Good day mr @Nutterman.
Welcome to AH.

Starting to plan your first African safari is always exciting and yes there is so many options.

We are based in the Lowveld of South Africa, with our hunting area bordering the Greater Kruger National Park we offer some of the best Cape Buffalo hunting in SA.
Proper hunting area no small camps, hunting the way it’s meant to be.

The .375 h&h is a perfect selection, if you practice enough and is confident and comfortable with it, you wont make mistakes. Great calibre choice for hunting Africa.

I will be sending you an DM.

Kind regards

Any tips would be appreciated.

Pick one of the many fine, vetted, outfitters who have been long-time sponsors of this forum. They all have a multitude of media posted and most have several client reviews from established and credible forum members.

My personal recommendation for a first-time African safari would be Limcroma Safaris. They run a first-class operation in every aspect! Hannes Els and his crew are the absolute best!

 

[Stormy Kromer]

Hello from a fellow hunter from rural Minnesota. I have a total of one safari under my belt and that didn't include buffalo. The outfitter I hunted with in South Africa offered buffalo hunts and if I were ever to hunt buffalo I would not hesitate to use them. I'd be glad to help with any of you planning or logistics getting from MN to Africa and back.

This group helped me a great deal and will be glad to help you too.

Welcome, glad to see another Minnesotan join the group! I hunted with @BAYLY SIPPEL SAFARIS last July and it was a great experience. I hunted plains game but will be returning soon hopefully for a buff hunt, they shoot some really nice ones.
