ALONG WITH PHOTOGRAPHIC (TOURING) PACKAGES
This PH grew up in the hunting industry in Namibia and became the youngest qualified big game professional hunter in Namibian history and he is also one of the few PH’s that has hunted all the big five. He has the hunting rights on their concession consisting of 400,000 wild African acres and his family also owns a 17,000 acre high fence reserve within the concession where hunters are able to pursue animals that are not indigenous to Namibia, although 90 percent of the hunts take place on the free range conservancy.
These safaris include pickup and return to Windhoek Airport, concession area fees, PH, gun bearer, tracker, skinner, camp staff, field transportation, daily laundry service, accommodations, meals, alcoholic beverages in moderation, soft drinks, field preparation and delivery of trophies to export taxidermist. Hunting days can be arranged for only $350 guided 2×1 or $450 guided 1×1 and observers are only $150 per day. 15% VAT tax on day rates only is not included and the hunter permit of $25.
Luxury accommodations are in a typical African savanna setting with all rooms having en-suite bathrooms and located about 70 yards apart overlooking a natural waterhole that is frequented by many species of wild animals. They also have a family unit with two bedrooms and a private connected sitting room. The lodge has a dining area where traditional meals are prepared mainly on the outside barbeque under the stars with many of the meats from the day’s harvest. A large trophy room with a bar and pool table is all yours to enjoy after a long day out in the hunting field. Evening drinks are enjoyed around the campfire each night after hunting.
This outfit is a family operation with over 25 years of experience that offers both traditional spot and stalk hunting on open wild Africa lands conveniently located only 1 1/2 hours southeast of Windhoek. Hunt NMKS. (bold)

HUNT THE ZAMBEZI VALLEY OF MOZAMBIQUE
Hunt like Teddy Roosevelt did in the early 1900’s. This concession is over one million acres of remote African bush that holds lots of elephant, lion, leopard, buffalo, hyena and plainsgame including sable. The area also holds arguably the highest concentration of hippo and crocodile in Africa.
Hunters fly into Johannesburg, clear guns then check for next day, overnight at the Africa Sky guest house at their expense, next day fly SA Airlink to Tete in northern Mozambique (about $200 each way) where they clear customs and then charter to camp flying west towards Zimbabwe for 1 hour 20 minutes, landing on an airstrip 10 minutes from camp on the southern border of the Zambezi River. Typically use a Cessna 206, that can carry 2 or 3 hunters comfortably with rifles and luggage. Figure about $3500 per airplane roundtrip split amongst hunters.
They have 2 permanent camps, Main Camp is on the south bank of the Zambezi River and Mbadzi Camp is on the shore of Lake Cahora Bassa. Both are luxury camps in wild Africa and not many tsetse flies.
Here are a couple examples of safaris and prices that DO NOT INCLUDE trophy fees.
18 day lion/leopard or buff and plains game $45,000

This concession is known for dangerous game more than plainsgame, but does have huge eland, plenty of spotted hyena, excellent sable upwards of 42 to 45 inches, good Sharps Grysbok, waterbuck, bushbuck, impala, kudu, duiker, warthog, baboon, Burchell’s zebra, and some others, along with tiger fishing. They are trying to secure permits for roan.

NAMIBIA 14 DAY LEOPARD $29,000
BOTSWANA 10 DAY LEOPARD HOUND HUNT $46,500
2021/2022/2023 ALL 100 PERCENT KILLS
This Namibia PH had another year of 100 percent success on male leopards in both Namibia baited hunts and his southern Botswana hound hunts.
Namibia leopard hunts are the traditional baited style that include long hours in the blind waiting for that big male to appear. They utilize trail cameras and once a good cat is spotted a blind will be built normally 70 to 100 yards from the bait. They only target and take big males.
Luxury hunting lodges and tented camps with en suite bathrooms along with daily laundry, fine dining accompanied with the finest cuisine and a variety of spirits.
Price breakdown is 14 hunting days plus 2 days $14,000, tag $5,000, trophy fee $10,000 totaling $29,000. Prebaiting is highly recommended at an additional $2,000.
Hunters fly into Windhoek where they are met and driven to camp.
They also work with a BOTSWANA outfit that conducts LEOPARD HUNTS WITH DOGS and bushmen and you can stay until you kill! Success has continued at 100 percent going 4 for 4 and pricing is broken down for a 10 day hunt totaling 12 days at $11,610, 14% VAT tax $1,625, bushmen trackers and dogs $5,000, Resource Utilization Fee $11,500, government license fee $5,000, trophy fee $11,765 totaling $46,500.
