ZIMBABWE: AGENT: Hunter Beware Of Luxuryhunts.com & ZimAfrica

this can't be true. It's been asserted to me, of late, that the only scam PH's were in South Africa. :rolleyes:
Yes and in the same statement all bullets except barnes just bounce off... and the government knows best...

Sorry to hear about you guys had a bad experience. Especially since it was your first trip to Africa. I hunted there in 2010 and had a good hunt and a good time. They have good and bad hunt reviews on here and I am sorry yours was not a good experience. I had my taxidermy done at Colletts and they did a great job on our trophies so if your animals are there then take solace that they are in good hands with Collets.
 
Riflelover says it took 3-4 hours (each way?) every day to go to the hunting areas from camp. I can tell you that no matter what else you could say positive about an operation, that would do it for me. To head to the hills for a day to look for a klippie, sure, but every day? No plan, as they say.

And, strictly by the by, Barnes bullets are the best!
 
RAPHAEL IS MY UNCLE,HE IS BEEN A PROFESSIONAL HUNTER FOR A VERY LONG TIME
 
.............

Let me begin this email on a positive note. My hunt was very successful. I harvested a nice cape buffalo and a 55 inch Kudu. I was able to get exactly what I wanted. My professional hunter, Raphael Ndlovu, was outstanding, as was his tracker Justin. Raphael and Justin made this a memorable trip that I shall always cherish. Raphael took the time to explain things to me about tracking and provided information about the game we were hunting. I learned so much. And both Raphael and Justin were extremely cordial and considerate of my wife and myself which made a tremendous difference. I could not be more pleased with the service I received from my professional hunter and his tracker. .....................

It's not so much the ten years as it is the occasional brain farts. Or maybe I should just put on my reading glasses when viewing things on my little iPhone. LOL

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

Thank in advance, I will appreciate your response.
