Returned back home on Monday the 10th from what I'll describe as the best hunting trip of my life! Hunted with Cheetau Safaris and these guys exceeded my expectations. I now know what service is. Lodge was amazing along with the meals and staff. Used Adele from Hunters Permits Africa to get our guns in and it was flawless. guns arrived at the police station via Emirates staff, unlocked the case and 30 seconds later was on our way. In all, I wouldn't change a thing. I'am however planning my return trip for next year! A few photos from my trip. Also, flew Emirates from ORD to JNB through Dubai and had zero issues, I fly 100K miles per year, first time on Emirates, amazing service from these people.

You are going to love these people! Carmen and Werner and awesome. I would return just to hang out with them, the hunting was a bonus. Enjoy your trip.

What a great way to kick off our 2025 hunting season in South Africa.

This beautiful Impala ram was taken at just over 300 yards, took a few steps and toppled over.

We are looking forward to the next week and a half of hunting with our first client of the year.

Do you have any more copies of African Dangerous Game Cartridges, Author: Pierre van der Walt ? I'm looking for one. Thanks for any information, John [redacted]
