African plain Game Hunting - We're different to the rest

When it comes to African Plains game hunting, it is easy for the costs to run away with you. That is why we have made our pricing different to others.
Our basic price covers you staying with us and hunting on our reserve. Thereafter what you decide to harvest during your stay is up to you. There is no pressure to take a big trophy, whatever you prefer is fine by us, we just want you to enjoy your time hunting in the African bush.

 

I'm often asked by hunting clients can they eat what they shoot. Of-course the answer is yes, thats absolutley part of any hunt. Our talented cooks will prepare the best cuts from your animal and serve them at dinner during your stay.

 We have a wide variety of animals available, all of which need to be taken off the reserve as part of our management policy to reduce over grazing and pressure on the browse line. Of-course this area is renowned for some huge Kudu bulls. For those who are looking for a nice Kudu bull, then look no further.

"One of those days that one remembers for a life time".

"One of those days that one remembers for a life time".

That was how four guns from the Midlands described there day with us in Dorset. They joined a small syndicate on an informal 50 bird driven day. And, well, if their complements at the end of the day were anything to go by, I rekon they had value for money.

It turned out to be quite an memorable day for me as well. Not only did our host offer me the opportunity to take a vacant place in the line.

To which I should say I did not do the magnificently presented birds any credit.

And then, when I checked my phone at the close of play there was an urgent message for a client who suddenly had a gap in his schedule and wanted to know if I could set up an African Plains Game hunt. That wouldn't normally be an issue but he wants to go next week!

Frantic phone calls to Africa secured a five day management hunt for Kudu, Waterbuck and Impala. 

Although the hunting season is closed in South Africa, our reserve has an exemption certificate for management hunts and desperately need to thin out some of their herds to avoid over grazing, so all is well.

All I have to do now, is work out if I can get to Africa and back for next Saturdays Duck and Pheasant day!

Three more months...happy days

Pheasant shoot days are back with us.

Three months of sporting days ahead. Fantastic.

Of-course we’ve had quite a few days already, but it’s the next three months that I look forward to most.

I am very lucky that my wife Kat (short for Karen) enjoys the country life as much as I do.

Whether she is covering me if I am away by feeding pheasants in August, dealing with enquiries, or joining me on a shoot day, socializing with old and new friends. Or (as happened last week), helping a rather worried keeper out by taking his landrover to the edge of a drive to stop pheasants bleeding out of one corner and then returning in time for elevenses and a very well earned sloe gin.

For us shooting is all about enjoying a day in the countryside with friends. And at the end of the day, we like to drop into the pub in our village on the way home. Dogs steaming away by the fire. A nice glass of red. And that great feeling of relaxing after a day outdoors.

Three more months……happy days!
