I have tons of information on the place I went to last fall and would love to help any other FBO'ers with getting info on going on a trip like this. It is a lot less expensive as you might think. And something that you will never forget. I have got alot of help from other people on this site with my hunts over the years so I thought I would give back. PM me foor more info. Brent.

You eat the meat when your there but thats only a small part of it. The workers get some and the rest of it goes to local meat markets. It tastes AWESOME also. Hide and horns I have had sent back and they are at the tannery right now. To have the hide and horns dipped, packed and air frieghted to the USA was about $175 per animal.

South Africa for plains game is very high on my "Bucket List" and I'm now in a position to seriously plan some hunts. If you're not comfortable with that, no problem. Thank You.

swift Joined: 01/23/2002 Location: SD	I can help out with the search too. I took my family of four, budget was $18K for everything from leaving my house to trophies hanging on the wall. Keep in mind airfare was nearly $8000 for the four of us. We shot 5 animals and I elected to have them mounted in South Africa then shipped over. 3 shoulder mounts one European mount of the warthog and a full body bushbuck mount was 3600 dollars, freight was 2000. The deal I got was a daily rate of $400/day I paid and wife and kids under 16 were free. Most have a $180/day observer fee. This included everything from airport arrival to departure except trophy fees and tips. Anybody that wants to talk about it give me PM. WSWAT is right you wont be disappointed in the adventure. And South African Airline has free beer for the 17 hour flight. I just got an email from my outfitter that airfare is down to $995/pp for this spring.

bottombouncer Joined: 04/27/2007 Location: MT	Beautiful animal! I've seen a few up in Namibia when I was there in September but nothing as close as you got. Really wish I could afford to take the time when I come to Africa and hunt instead of just work. I got to Cape Town the 12th of December and spent one week there getting the ship ready to work off the coast of Madagascar, left the 20th. Currently at 18.43.55S 041.11.49E, off the coast of Madagascar. The pirates have been working about 500 miles north of us but have been as far south as 100 mile south of us. Next week I'll be crew changing by charter plane from Mattajanga, Madagascar to Nairobi, Kenya. Then British Airways from Nairobi to London to Denver to home! Got to love those 30+ hour flights after doing a 12 hour shift and a 20 hour crew boat ride to the dock, then sitting in the airport for another 8 hours.
