Trophy cost ?
Elkgunner, I approve of your philosophy of "seize the moment", I really do. Here's mine: I have found through the years that a person is not "a nice guy because he is a hunter", as someone might remark. Neither cause he is a fisherman, or a surfer or a canoeist, or ……. The definitive reason...- Lochi

Trophy cost ?
JJ, You concluded above posting with "Just Email me and I'll tell you what ever you want to know about it." I respect your knowledge since I do not know its boundaries. I am new to the Professional hunting scene, but not new to hunting in SA. I have not argued in favour of the ethics of...- Lochi

Trophy cost ?
Apologies Elkgunner ... ... for reacting in "African time". I have been working long hours, no time to visit the boards. I do not have the foggiest clue how the agent set-up works. Assuming you could go with JJ's explanation. I also read it and learn as I go. Thanx JJ, informative stuff...- Lochi

Where else besides South Africa???
Elkgunner, If you are in the "first-time-to-Africa" plains game league, then Namibia is fine too. I would personally not fiddle with Zim yet, and the rest is upmarket expensive stuff. Check out the website of the South African Game Ranchers Association www.sagro.co.za for links to their...- Lochi

Talking about African hunt....
What a coincidence! Just happened to peep in here tonight, and what will I find? That some people just seem to take longer to wise up than the rest of us. I am not mentioning any names, you only have to follow my eyes. Since we last spoke on this thread, the Rand has strengthened to the tune...- Lochi

Hunt value Africa VS North America
JJ Hack says: "The trend over the last few years is to have high quality photo's done. I think much of this has started because the cost of the shipping, brokers, tanning, and taxidermy are nearly equal to the cost of the hunt in some cases." I agree wholeheartedly with that. I have a client...- Lochi

Hunt value Africa VS North America
When I teach the gosples of "Total Quality Management" and "Customer Service Excellence" and those stuffs here at work, I tell the class to "look at yourself through the eyes of the customer". If I view the above posters as potential hunting clients, then it scares me to realise how little I...- Lochi

Hunt value Africa VS North America
Yes Nut, We have black backed jackal (Canis mesomelas), much similar to your C. latrans, on sheep farms, where farmers welcome varmint hunters. See this link http://www.affordableafricanhunting.co.za/Children%20of%20Predator%20Calling/predator_calling.htm Baboons is a favourite too (I hunt...- Lochi

Hunt value Africa VS North America
Until a few years back, hunting in Africa was associated with lavish accommodation and big five quarry, thus only for the stinking rich Americans, presented by up-market fat-cat outfitters. Nowadays, thanks to the transparency of the Internet, the hunting outfitters in RSA are under huge...- Lochi

Picture of Blesbok
Nice pic Kraven. You know, the blesbuck is a much underestimated game animal. Just because they are so plenty and low cost, hunters take them for granted. Also, they are frequently diesel-stalked (shot from a vehicle in culling style). I bow-hunted blesbok a few times (unsuccesfully!) and can...- Lochi

Talking about African hunt....
One free safari for Doug!!! Thanx mate! Hey Moosie, you call yourself a "hard apple to sell". (Riaan, I need your help here!) OK, that's fair. Now, check out this link for my client's feedback on his safari with me. http://www.predatormastersforums.com/ubb/Forum16/HTML/000352.html Then talk...- Lochi

Talking about African hunt....
Thank you Don! You're spot-on by calling it a "concept". Unlike most safari operators, I am not offering everything to everyone. I serve only a narrow niche market, i.e. "the first-time-to-Africa American hunter with limited budget who wants to hunt fine, representative specimens of the...- Lochi

Welcome Mule!! You will find that this board is kinda "relaxed", meaning you don't have to stress and concentrate on who likes which calibers :D and what may or may not be said. And then you have a very knowledgeable moderator on this specific forum too. Enjoy!- Lochi

Talking about African hunt....
Hi Moosie. I have not been on your site for quite a while, sorry for that. I am quite sensitive not to "free-bee" advertise on bulletin boards. But since the boss himself is asking the question of "where to hunt", I shall risk a biased answer: Come hunt with me Moosie! Check out my new...- Lochi

CALLED a guide in Africa today....
Hey Doug! How are you boyke? Thanx for the nice words, but I have not visited here for many weeks, apologies. You have inspired me now to "sell myself" to Moosie, which I will do on that other thread which he opened on his 2005 African hunt. I got 3 copies of Trapper 2003 Yearbook from Paul in...- Lochi

What Is This Animal?
Ann, My "econo hunts" ("bargain hunts" as you call them) are going very well. Right now we work hard every weekend to help cull female animals on game ranches before the hunting season starts: blesbuck, springbuck, waterbuck, kudu, impala. And then there is the cattle rancher at Thabazimbi who...- Lochi
