Just checking in now that hunting has stopped for a few days — full report to follow on my return to states. On day 10 or 9 not sure and have finished up hunting with Kemp of Africa Anyway and will be sight seeing for a couple days. Food is ridiculous - have gained too much weight to fit into some of the pants I brought. Animal list so far:
Baboon— me
Impala -wife -SS
Bontebuck- me
Eland - me
Lechwe - wife (Situational Shopping) SS
Bushbuck - wife SS
Blue wildebeest - wife SS
Sable Antelope - wife
Gemsbok - me
East Cape Kudu- me
Bush Buck - me
Warthog - me
Zebra— me
Passed on an absolute hammer of a waterbuck and still kicking myself for it
Also passed on a Nyala thats a stud— I have seen him a few times and I may still try and take him as we are at this property for 3 more days
Going to Elephant Park in the morning — to windy to go to Port Alfred to fish.
Then second hunt will start on 14th in Limpopo - so far thats maybe a buff if I see the absolute perfect one in the perfect siuation — but def gonna get a Southern greater kudu and maybe a few more things that look cool or challenging
All the practice on sticks has paid off in spades - wife has all one shot kills to 338yds— baboon is only thing lost (me first morning a long way away and didnt take my time as they were walking and I rushed— everything else save eland has been a bang flop. Eland ran and required 2 more shots — he just wouldn’t give up
Reports when return to states and have better WiFi in November
Am booking return trip already — this place is ridiculous and yall completely undersold it to me! You all said I would love it and I wouldn’t go just once — I thought sure sure—what you didnt convey was all the things like tortoise and the cool birds and the smells and sunsets. Was already looking at calendar second day here!
