Beautiful scenery! That's very generous of you and your wife to give afford those kids an opportunity they otherwise wouldn't have. Good luck with the hunt and stay safe!!

It's great to see you guys getting the full experience. I hope you have a great hunt.

While your in the bush watch out for this guy. He catches you hunting in his spots and he will do figure 8's all around you.

That's a great thing to do.

And my wifeshot her first animal ever!! A massive red lechwe ! Pics to come.

I've really struggled to get a gemsbok and zebra , I've prolly walk n stalked a crew of gemsbok for miles over the past 2 days , today I got within 39 yards but the close ones weren't throphy size then the spooked. And the only zebra I've gotten close enough to are mountain zebra which are illegal to import into the USA . Moving camps tomorrow morning in hopes to get a zebra then come back to this area to seal the deal with my gemsbok
