We have been waiting for a very long time (6 long years) for Kurt Meiswinkel to come and
hunt with us We met this great hunter in 2012 and we finally had the privilege of
welcoming him and his family to South Africa Kurt was joined by his wife Julia and his
children Daniel and Nicole They were also joined by Julias close friend Nina and her
daughter Uliana
There was plenty of hunting and sight-seeing and the group also visited the world-
renowned Kruger National Park and took a trip to the Victoria Falls All in all a true
African experience
The Meiswinkel family with a spectacular backdrop of the magnificent Victoria Falls
Kurt kindly sent us a great report of his hunt and we are thrilled to share it with you
The first day I took both my kids hunting Neither of my children has ever hunted or
harvested any game other than a small rabbit back in the US We came upon some zebra
set up at about 150 yards but they moved out to about 220 yards My son set with guidance
from PH Andre and made a perfect shot for his first big game animal ever Ive never seen
such a proud smile while we took photos My son and daughter were just as excited to
have zebra for dinner that night as they were for the experience

Early the following morning we came across a beautiful impala - a true trophy We made a
clean stalk and I harvested my first trophy Later in the morning we spotted a second
impala The stalk started out in silence but they caught wind of us My son was the shooter
this time The trophy impala ran up a hill and hid in the brush for cover Andre set up the
shooting sticks for my son and the shot was 168 yards uphill in some cover My son made a
perfect shot I was so proud of him
That evening we continued our hunt We spotted a giant sable at about 250 yards I made a
good clean shot and the animal ran into the bush We knew exactly where we believed it
would be We walked into the thick bush and found the beautiful trophy sable

The following morning while following some buffalo tracks we were fortunate to find a
massive warthog sound asleep The tracker with his amazing eyes spotted him We didnrsquot
want to ruin the buffalo stalk but this hog was too good to pass up
Kurt was on the hunt for buffalo and having tried without any luck the previous two days
his luck changed

Drom and Andre strategically set up an amazing plan to get an opportunity for an amazing
bull We all started in a completely different direction and made a very long but swift 2-
hour stalk early that morning We knew we were getting very close We were on the verge
of getting a shot and somehow we were now within range There was some brush in the
way so it was now or never at about 50 yards I made a good shot but the beast made a
long run and did not want to leave this earth We followed his blood and found him laying
down but still alive I finished him off a close range and we all celebrated
On the way back to the lodge for lunch we spotted a very large bushbuck I was able to
make a great stalk and harvest my fourth trophy That evening we were again after the
elusive grey ghosts and we spotted two very nice kudu I was fortunate to harvest my first
kudu at about 125 yards I was extremely pleased What a day to harvest so many amazing
trophy animals
The last hunting day was dedicated to my beautiful daughter Nicole Andre kept telling
my daughter that she will get her opportunity and that she will harvest a kudu That

morning he spent one on one time to practice shooting with some water bottles to help her
gain some more confidence Again my daughter shot perfectly We began our hunt in
search of kudu that morning After searching for a few hours we finally spotted the kudu
Andre coached my daughter to set up breathe and squeeze the trigger to make a perfect
shot at 120 yards My daughter was so excited and after the shot she said Dad that was the
biggest adrenaline rush ever Andre celebrated by picking up my daughter in the air and
hugged her and said I told you you could do this
We finished off the day with my daughter then harvesting a stunning blesbuck at almost
200 yards My daughter is officially hooked on hunting and cant wait to come back to
Africa She now has a whole list of animals that she wants to hunt (soon) on her and dads
future return trip to South Africa with Somerby Safaris
In between the hunting the kids did some great non-hunting activities with their mom
along with Nina and Uliana They visited the lion and elephant sanctuaries did some horse
riding and ziplining and visited the beautiful Sun City resort

McLemore Father and Son Hunt We met Henry McLemore Snr and Henry Jnr at the SCI Hunters Convention in Las Vegas
earlier on this year We were very excited when they decided to book their safari with us
with the main focus being a buffalo for Henry Jnr On top of that both father and son shot
some beautiful plains game and did an amazing job Henry Snr sent us some information
on how they experienced the hunt
We could only see one of the five buffalo that we knew were in the reeds After flushing
them we may have gone almost a mile to get ahead of them and down wind After three
shots with the 375 we finally anchored our trophy
The rest of the game was taken from about 80 yards on with a 300 mag The black
wildebeest was about 215 and the zebra at 285 The springbuck was also close to 200
yards The animals at the park just wouldnt let you get too close Our highlight was the
klipspringer taken at about 100 yds and uphill Only 10 minutes into the hunt

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

The group also enjoyed a night drive (albeit in the rain) where they spotted two lionesses
hyenas and African wild dogs African wild dogs are an endangered species and are a very
rare sight
On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day
All in all the Kruger trip was a great success and everyone really enjoyed it Next stop

to do some sight-seeing The following morning Al Ed and Delmar headed out on the
hunt They had decided not to bring their own weapons and instead made use of
Somerbys 308 Winchester and Remington Model 700
Soon after heading out they came across a nice herd of impala and Delmar took down a
nice one Als turn came next where after following a herd of blesbuck he took one down
at about 150 yards with it dropping after a second shot in its front quarter

The following day the hunters set off for yet another day of hunting this time on the
lookout for a blue wildebeest for Delmar The owner knew where a herd hung out and when
they spotted them after about 30 minutes Delmar took a 320 yard shot knowing that he
had the wildebeest as it jumped After tracking the bull for a good hour Delmar finished it

The next leg of the tour was a trip to the beautiful Victoria Falls - a sweet ending to a
wonderful holiday The group stayed on an island overlooking the Zambezi River After
being collected from the airport they were taken to the lodge on a pontoon boat where they
saw crocs and hippos enjoying the water
The group did a tour of the Victoria Falls the following day and took a look around the
historic Victoria Falls Hotel where Queen Victoria of England stayed They also visited an
authentic African market and stopped to see an ancient baobab tree said to be 1700 years

set up at about 150 yards but they moved out to about 220 yards My son set with guidance
from PH Andre and made a perfect shot for his first big game animal ever Ive never seen
such a proud smile while we took photos My son and daughter were just as excited to

impala The stalk started out in silence but they caught wind of us My son was the shooter
this time The trophy impala ran up a hill and hid in the brush for cover Andre set up the
shooting sticks for my son and the shot was 168 yards uphill in some cover My son made a
perfect shot I was so proud of him
That evening we continued our hunt We spotted a giant sable at about 250 yards I made a
good clean shot and the animal ran into the bush We knew exactly where we believed it
would be We walked into the thick bush and found the beautiful trophy sable

The following morning while following some buffalo tracks we were fortunate to find a
massive warthog sound asleep The tracker with his amazing eyes spotted him We didnrsquot
want to ruin the buffalo stalk but this hog was too good to pass up
Kurt was on the hunt for buffalo and having tried without any luck the previous two days

Drom and Andre strategically set up an amazing plan to get an opportunity for an amazing
bull We all started in a completely different direction and made a very long but swift 2-
hour stalk early that morning We knew we were getting very close We were on the verge
of getting a shot and somehow we were now within range There was some brush in the
way so it was now or never at about 50 yards I made a good shot but the beast made a
long run and did not want to leave this earth We followed his blood and found him laying
down but still alive I finished him off a close range and we all celebrated
On the way back to the lodge for lunch we spotted a very large bushbuck I was able to
make a great stalk and harvest my fourth trophy That evening we were again after the
elusive grey ghosts and we spotted two very nice kudu I was fortunate to harvest my first
kudu at about 125 yards I was extremely pleased What a day to harvest so many amazing
trophy animals
The last hunting day was dedicated to my beautiful daughter Nicole Andre kept telling
my daughter that she will get her opportunity and that she will harvest a kudu That

morning he spent one on one time to practice shooting with some water bottles to help her
gain some more confidence Again my daughter shot perfectly We began our hunt in
search of kudu that morning After searching for a few hours we finally spotted the kudu
Andre coached my daughter to set up breathe and squeeze the trigger to make a perfect
shot at 120 yards My daughter was so excited and after the shot she said Dad that was the
biggest adrenaline rush ever Andre celebrated by picking up my daughter in the air and
hugged her and said I told you you could do this
We finished off the day with my daughter then harvesting a stunning blesbuck at almost
200 yards My daughter is officially hooked on hunting and cant wait to come back to
Africa She now has a whole list of animals that she wants to hunt (soon) on her and dads

McLemore Father and Son Hunt We met Henry McLemore Snr and Henry Jnr at the SCI Hunters Convention in Las Vegas
earlier on this year We were very excited when they decided to book their safari with us
with the main focus being a buffalo for Henry Jnr On top of that both father and son shot
some beautiful plains game and did an amazing job Henry Snr sent us some information
on how they experienced the hunt
We could only see one of the five buffalo that we knew were in the reeds After flushing
them we may have gone almost a mile to get ahead of them and down wind After three
shots with the 375 we finally anchored our trophy
The rest of the game was taken from about 80 yards on with a 300 mag The black
wildebeest was about 215 and the zebra at 285 The springbuck was also close to 200
yards The animals at the park just wouldnt let you get too close Our highlight was the
klipspringer taken at about 100 yds and uphill Only 10 minutes into the hunt

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

hyenas and African wild dogs African wild dogs are an endangered species and are a very
rare sight
On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day
All in all the Kruger trip was a great success and everyone really enjoyed it Next stop

to do some sight-seeing The following morning Al Ed and Delmar headed out on the
hunt They had decided not to bring their own weapons and instead made use of
Somerbys 308 Winchester and Remington Model 700
Soon after heading out they came across a nice herd of impala and Delmar took down a
nice one Als turn came next where after following a herd of blesbuck he took one down
at about 150 yards with it dropping after a second shot in its front quarter

hunt with us We met this great hunter in 2012 and we finally had the privilege of
welcoming him and his family to South Africa Kurt was joined by his wife Julia and his
children Daniel and Nicole They were also joined by Julias close friend Nina and her
daughter Uliana
There was plenty of hunting and sight-seeing and the group also visited the world-
renowned Kruger National Park and took a trip to the Victoria Falls All in all a true
African experience
The Meiswinkel family with a spectacular backdrop of the magnificent Victoria Falls
Kurt kindly sent us a great report of his hunt and we are thrilled to share it with you
The first day I took both my kids hunting Neither of my children has ever hunted or
harvested any game other than a small rabbit back in the US We came upon some zebra
set up at about 150 yards but they moved out to about 220 yards My son set with guidance
from PH Andre and made a perfect shot for his first big game animal ever Ive never seen
such a proud smile while we took photos My son and daughter were just as excited to
have zebra for dinner that night as they were for the experience

hour stalk early that morning We knew we were getting very close We were on the verge
of getting a shot and somehow we were now within range There was some brush in the
way so it was now or never at about 50 yards I made a good shot but the beast made a
long run and did not want to leave this earth We followed his blood and found him laying
down but still alive I finished him off a close range and we all celebrated
On the way back to the lodge for lunch we spotted a very large bushbuck I was able to
make a great stalk and harvest my fourth trophy That evening we were again after the
elusive grey ghosts and we spotted two very nice kudu I was fortunate to harvest my first
kudu at about 125 yards I was extremely pleased What a day to harvest so many amazing
trophy animals

gain some more confidence Again my daughter shot perfectly We began our hunt in
search of kudu that morning After searching for a few hours we finally spotted the kudu
Andre coached my daughter to set up breathe and squeeze the trigger to make a perfect
shot at 120 yards My daughter was so excited and after the shot she said Dad that was the
biggest adrenaline rush ever Andre celebrated by picking up my daughter in the air and
hugged her and said I told you you could do this
We finished off the day with my daughter then harvesting a stunning blesbuck at almost
200 yards My daughter is officially hooked on hunting and cant wait to come back to
Africa She now has a whole list of animals that she wants to hunt (soon) on her and dads

McLemore Father and Son Hunt We met Henry McLemore Snr and Henry Jnr at the SCI Hunters Convention in Las Vegas
earlier on this year We were very excited when they decided to book their safari with us
with the main focus being a buffalo for Henry Jnr On top of that both father and son shot
some beautiful plains game and did an amazing job Henry Snr sent us some information
on how they experienced the hunt
We could only see one of the five buffalo that we knew were in the reeds After flushing
them we may have gone almost a mile to get ahead of them and down wind After three
shots with the 375 we finally anchored our trophy
The rest of the game was taken from about 80 yards on with a 300 mag The black
wildebeest was about 215 and the zebra at 285 The springbuck was also close to 200
yards The animals at the park just wouldnt let you get too close Our highlight was the
klipspringer taken at about 100 yds and uphill Only 10 minutes into the hunt

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

The group also enjoyed a night drive (albeit in the rain) where they spotted two lionesses
hyenas and African wild dogs African wild dogs are an endangered species and are a very
rare sight
On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day
All in all the Kruger trip was a great success and everyone really enjoyed it Next stop
some hunting and sight-seeing in the Limpopo

All aboard for the night drive
The group arrived in the Limpopo where the agenda was for the men to hunt and the ladies
to do some sight-seeing The following morning Al Ed and Delmar headed out on the
hunt They had decided not to bring their own weapons and instead made use of
Somerbys 308 Winchester and Remington Model 700
Soon after heading out they came across a nice herd of impala and Delmar took down a
nice one Als turn came next where after following a herd of blesbuck he took one down
at about 150 yards with it dropping after a second shot in its front quarter
Well done guys

The following day the hunters set off for yet another day of hunting this time on the
lookout for a blue wildebeest for Delmar The owner knew where a herd hung out and when
they spotted them after about 30 minutes Delmar took a 320 yard shot knowing that he
had the wildebeest as it jumped After tracking the bull for a good hour Delmar finished it

Early the following morning we came across a beautiful impala - a true trophy We made a
clean stalk and I harvested my first trophy Later in the morning we spotted a second
impala The stalk started out in silence but they caught wind of us My son was the shooter
this time The trophy impala ran up a hill and hid in the brush for cover Andre set up the
shooting sticks for my son and the shot was 168 yards uphill in some cover My son made a
perfect shot I was so proud of him
That evening we continued our hunt We spotted a giant sable at about 250 yards I made a
good clean shot and the animal ran into the bush We knew exactly where we believed it
would be We walked into the thick bush and found the beautiful trophy sable

Drom and Andre strategically set up an amazing plan to get an opportunity for an amazing
bull We all started in a completely different direction and made a very long but swift 2-
hour stalk early that morning We knew we were getting very close We were on the verge
of getting a shot and somehow we were now within range There was some brush in the
way so it was now or never at about 50 yards I made a good shot but the beast made a
long run and did not want to leave this earth We followed his blood and found him laying
down but still alive I finished him off a close range and we all celebrated
On the way back to the lodge for lunch we spotted a very large bushbuck I was able to
make a great stalk and harvest my fourth trophy That evening we were again after the
elusive grey ghosts and we spotted two very nice kudu I was fortunate to harvest my first
kudu at about 125 yards I was extremely pleased What a day to harvest so many amazing
trophy animals

gain some more confidence Again my daughter shot perfectly We began our hunt in
search of kudu that morning After searching for a few hours we finally spotted the kudu
Andre coached my daughter to set up breathe and squeeze the trigger to make a perfect
shot at 120 yards My daughter was so excited and after the shot she said Dad that was the
biggest adrenaline rush ever Andre celebrated by picking up my daughter in the air and
hugged her and said I told you you could do this

200 yards My daughter is officially hooked on hunting and cant wait to come back to

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

The group also enjoyed a night drive (albeit in the rain) where they spotted two lionesses
hyenas and African wild dogs African wild dogs are an endangered species and are a very
rare sight
On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day
All in all the Kruger trip was a great success and everyone really enjoyed it Next stop
some hunting and sight-seeing in the Limpopo

All aboard for the night drive
The group arrived in the Limpopo where the agenda was for the men to hunt and the ladies
to do some sight-seeing The following morning Al Ed and Delmar headed out on the
hunt They had decided not to bring their own weapons and instead made use of
Somerbys 308 Winchester and Remington Model 700
Soon after heading out they came across a nice herd of impala and Delmar took down a
nice one Als turn came next where after following a herd of blesbuck he took one down
at about 150 yards with it dropping after a second shot in its front quarter
Well done guys

The following day the hunters set off for yet another day of hunting this time on the
lookout for a blue wildebeest for Delmar The owner knew where a herd hung out and when
they spotted them after about 30 minutes Delmar took a 320 yard shot knowing that he
had the wildebeest as it jumped After tracking the bull for a good hour Delmar finished it

Drom and Andre strategically set up an amazing plan to get an opportunity for an amazing
bull We all started in a completely different direction and made a very long but swift 2-
hour stalk early that morning We knew we were getting very close We were on the verge
of getting a shot and somehow we were now within range There was some brush in the
way so it was now or never at about 50 yards I made a good shot but the beast made a
long run and did not want to leave this earth We followed his blood and found him laying
down but still alive I finished him off a close range and we all celebrated
On the way back to the lodge for lunch we spotted a very large bushbuck I was able to
make a great stalk and harvest my fourth trophy That evening we were again after the
elusive grey ghosts and we spotted two very nice kudu I was fortunate to harvest my first
kudu at about 125 yards I was extremely pleased What a day to harvest so many amazing
trophy animals
The last hunting day was dedicated to my beautiful daughter Nicole Andre kept telling

gain some more confidence Again my daughter shot perfectly We began our hunt in
search of kudu that morning After searching for a few hours we finally spotted the kudu
Andre coached my daughter to set up breathe and squeeze the trigger to make a perfect
shot at 120 yards My daughter was so excited and after the shot she said Dad that was the
biggest adrenaline rush ever Andre celebrated by picking up my daughter in the air and
hugged her and said I told you you could do this
We finished off the day with my daughter then harvesting a stunning blesbuck at almost
200 yards My daughter is officially hooked on hunting and cant wait to come back to
Africa She now has a whole list of animals that she wants to hunt (soon) on her and dads

Drom and Andre strategically set up an amazing plan to get an opportunity for an amazing
bull We all started in a completely different direction and made a very long but swift 2-
hour stalk early that morning We knew we were getting very close We were on the verge
of getting a shot and somehow we were now within range There was some brush in the
way so it was now or never at about 50 yards I made a good shot but the beast made a
long run and did not want to leave this earth We followed his blood and found him laying
down but still alive I finished him off a close range and we all celebrated
On the way back to the lodge for lunch we spotted a very large bushbuck I was able to
make a great stalk and harvest my fourth trophy That evening we were again after the
elusive grey ghosts and we spotted two very nice kudu I was fortunate to harvest my first
kudu at about 125 yards I was extremely pleased What a day to harvest so many amazing
trophy animals
The last hunting day was dedicated to my beautiful daughter Nicole Andre kept telling
my daughter that she will get her opportunity and that she will harvest a kudu That

morning he spent one on one time to practice shooting with some water bottles to help her
gain some more confidence Again my daughter shot perfectly We began our hunt in
search of kudu that morning After searching for a few hours we finally spotted the kudu
Andre coached my daughter to set up breathe and squeeze the trigger to make a perfect
shot at 120 yards My daughter was so excited and after the shot she said Dad that was the
biggest adrenaline rush ever Andre celebrated by picking up my daughter in the air and
hugged her and said I told you you could do this
We finished off the day with my daughter then harvesting a stunning blesbuck at almost
200 yards My daughter is officially hooked on hunting and cant wait to come back to
Africa She now has a whole list of animals that she wants to hunt (soon) on her and dads
future return trip to South Africa with Somerby Safaris
In between the hunting the kids did some great non-hunting activities with their mom
along with Nina and Uliana They visited the lion and elephant sanctuaries did some horse
riding and ziplining and visited the beautiful Sun City resort

McLemore Father and Son Hunt We met Henry McLemore Snr and Henry Jnr at the SCI Hunters Convention in Las Vegas
earlier on this year We were very excited when they decided to book their safari with us
with the main focus being a buffalo for Henry Jnr On top of that both father and son shot
some beautiful plains game and did an amazing job Henry Snr sent us some information
on how they experienced the hunt
We could only see one of the five buffalo that we knew were in the reeds After flushing
them we may have gone almost a mile to get ahead of them and down wind After three
shots with the 375 we finally anchored our trophy
The rest of the game was taken from about 80 yards on with a 300 mag The black
wildebeest was about 215 and the zebra at 285 The springbuck was also close to 200
yards The animals at the park just wouldnt let you get too close Our highlight was the
klipspringer taken at about 100 yds and uphill Only 10 minutes into the hunt

morning he spent one on one time to practice shooting with some water bottles to help her
gain some more confidence Again my daughter shot perfectly We began our hunt in
search of kudu that morning After searching for a few hours we finally spotted the kudu
Andre coached my daughter to set up breathe and squeeze the trigger to make a perfect
shot at 120 yards My daughter was so excited and after the shot she said Dad that was the
biggest adrenaline rush ever Andre celebrated by picking up my daughter in the air and
hugged her and said I told you you could do this
We finished off the day with my daughter then harvesting a stunning blesbuck at almost
200 yards My daughter is officially hooked on hunting and cant wait to come back to
Africa She now has a whole list of animals that she wants to hunt (soon) on her and dads

McLemore Father and Son Hunt We met Henry McLemore Snr and Henry Jnr at the SCI Hunters Convention in Las Vegas
earlier on this year We were very excited when they decided to book their safari with us
with the main focus being a buffalo for Henry Jnr On top of that both father and son shot
some beautiful plains game and did an amazing job Henry Snr sent us some information
on how they experienced the hunt
We could only see one of the five buffalo that we knew were in the reeds After flushing
them we may have gone almost a mile to get ahead of them and down wind After three
shots with the 375 we finally anchored our trophy
The rest of the game was taken from about 80 yards on with a 300 mag The black
wildebeest was about 215 and the zebra at 285 The springbuck was also close to 200
yards The animals at the park just wouldnt let you get too close Our highlight was the
klipspringer taken at about 100 yds and uphill Only 10 minutes into the hunt

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

The group also enjoyed a night drive (albeit in the rain) where they spotted two lionesses
hyenas and African wild dogs African wild dogs are an endangered species and are a very
rare sight
On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day
All in all the Kruger trip was a great success and everyone really enjoyed it Next stop

The group arrived in the Limpopo where the agenda was for the men to hunt and the ladies
to do some sight-seeing The following morning Al Ed and Delmar headed out on the
hunt They had decided not to bring their own weapons and instead made use of
Somerbys 308 Winchester and Remington Model 700
Soon after heading out they came across a nice herd of impala and Delmar took down a
nice one Als turn came next where after following a herd of blesbuck he took one down
at about 150 yards with it dropping after a second shot in its front quarter
Well done guys

The following day the hunters set off for yet another day of hunting this time on the
lookout for a blue wildebeest for Delmar The owner knew where a herd hung out and when
they spotted them after about 30 minutes Delmar took a 320 yard shot knowing that he
had the wildebeest as it jumped After tracking the bull for a good hour Delmar finished it

wonderful holiday The group stayed on an island overlooking the Zambezi River After
being collected from the airport they were taken to the lodge on a pontoon boat where they
saw crocs and hippos enjoying the water
The group did a tour of the Victoria Falls the following day and took a look around the
historic Victoria Falls Hotel where Queen Victoria of England stayed They also visited an

correspondence from Kerry Stewart enquiring about a safari for herself and her husband
Duncan and their friend Blair Hall We were introduced to Kerry through Gerald and Sue
Telford some friends of ours that we met in Kansas City and who run Telford Fishing and
Hunting in Wanaka New Zealand
These hunters came all the way from New Zealand and it was an honor to host them on a
fantastic bow and rifle hunting safari
Kerry let us know a little bit about how they experienced their time with Somerby Duncan
and I both brought our hunting bows to hunt with so we spent a lot of time hunting from
blinds All the animals shot with our bows were between 15 - 20 meters

McLemore Father and Son Hunt We met Henry McLemore Snr and Henry Jnr at the SCI Hunters Convention in Las Vegas
earlier on this year We were very excited when they decided to book their safari with us
with the main focus being a buffalo for Henry Jnr On top of that both father and son shot
some beautiful plains game and did an amazing job Henry Snr sent us some information
on how they experienced the hunt
We could only see one of the five buffalo that we knew were in the reeds After flushing
them we may have gone almost a mile to get ahead of them and down wind After three
shots with the 375 we finally anchored our trophy
The rest of the game was taken from about 80 yards on with a 300 mag The black
wildebeest was about 215 and the zebra at 285 The springbuck was also close to 200
yards The animals at the park just wouldnt let you get too close Our highlight was the
klipspringer taken at about 100 yds and uphill Only 10 minutes into the hunt

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

hyenas and African wild dogs African wild dogs are an endangered species and are a very
rare sight
On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day
All in all the Kruger trip was a great success and everyone really enjoyed it Next stop

Stewart and Hall Safari Although we are incredibly fond of our American pals we always enjoy meeting hunters
that hail from other parts of the world and we were really excited when we received
correspondence from Kerry Stewart enquiring about a safari for herself and her husband
Duncan and their friend Blair Hall We were introduced to Kerry through Gerald and Sue
Telford some friends of ours that we met in Kansas City and who run Telford Fishing and
Hunting in Wanaka New Zealand
These hunters came all the way from New Zealand and it was an honor to host them on a
fantastic bow and rifle hunting safari
Kerry let us know a little bit about how they experienced their time with Somerby Duncan
and I both brought our hunting bows to hunt with so we spent a lot of time hunting from
blinds All the animals shot with our bows were between 15 - 20 meters

McLemore Father and Son Hunt We met Henry McLemore Snr and Henry Jnr at the SCI Hunters Convention in Las Vegas
earlier on this year We were very excited when they decided to book their safari with us
with the main focus being a buffalo for Henry Jnr On top of that both father and son shot
some beautiful plains game and did an amazing job Henry Snr sent us some information
on how they experienced the hunt
We could only see one of the five buffalo that we knew were in the reeds After flushing
them we may have gone almost a mile to get ahead of them and down wind After three
shots with the 375 we finally anchored our trophy
The rest of the game was taken from about 80 yards on with a 300 mag The black
wildebeest was about 215 and the zebra at 285 The springbuck was also close to 200
yards The animals at the park just wouldnt let you get too close Our highlight was the
klipspringer taken at about 100 yds and uphill Only 10 minutes into the hunt

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

The group also enjoyed a night drive (albeit in the rain) where they spotted two lionesses
hyenas and African wild dogs African wild dogs are an endangered species and are a very
rare sight
On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day
All in all the Kruger trip was a great success and everyone really enjoyed it Next stop

to do some sight-seeing The following morning Al Ed and Delmar headed out on the
hunt They had decided not to bring their own weapons and instead made use of
Somerbys 308 Winchester and Remington Model 700
Soon after heading out they came across a nice herd of impala and Delmar took down a
nice one Als turn came next where after following a herd of blesbuck he took one down
at about 150 yards with it dropping after a second shot in its front quarter

McLemore Father and Son Hunt We met Henry McLemore Snr and Henry Jnr at the SCI Hunters Convention in Las Vegas
earlier on this year We were very excited when they decided to book their safari with us
with the main focus being a buffalo for Henry Jnr On top of that both father and son shot
some beautiful plains game and did an amazing job Henry Snr sent us some information
on how they experienced the hunt
We could only see one of the five buffalo that we knew were in the reeds After flushing
them we may have gone almost a mile to get ahead of them and down wind After three
shots with the 375 we finally anchored our trophy
The rest of the game was taken from about 80 yards on with a 300 mag The black
wildebeest was about 215 and the zebra at 285 The springbuck was also close to 200
yards The animals at the park just wouldnt let you get too close Our highlight was the
klipspringer taken at about 100 yds and uphill Only 10 minutes into the hunt

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day

Stewart and Hall Safari Although we are incredibly fond of our American pals we always enjoy meeting hunters
that hail from other parts of the world and we were really excited when we received
correspondence from Kerry Stewart enquiring about a safari for herself and her husband

These hunters came all the way from New Zealand and it was an honor to host them on a
fantastic bow and rifle hunting safari

McLemore Father and Son Hunt We met Henry McLemore Snr and Henry Jnr at the SCI Hunters Convention in Las Vegas
earlier on this year We were very excited when they decided to book their safari with us
with the main focus being a buffalo for Henry Jnr On top of that both father and son shot
some beautiful plains game and did an amazing job Henry Snr sent us some information
on how they experienced the hunt
We could only see one of the five buffalo that we knew were in the reeds After flushing
them we may have gone almost a mile to get ahead of them and down wind After three
shots with the 375 we finally anchored our trophy
The rest of the game was taken from about 80 yards on with a 300 mag The black
wildebeest was about 215 and the zebra at 285 The springbuck was also close to 200
yards The animals at the park just wouldnt let you get too close Our highlight was the

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

hyenas and African wild dogs African wild dogs are an endangered species and are a very
rare sight
On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day
All in all the Kruger trip was a great success and everyone really enjoyed it Next stop

to do some sight-seeing The following morning Al Ed and Delmar headed out on the
hunt They had decided not to bring their own weapons and instead made use of
Somerbys 308 Winchester and Remington Model 700
Soon after heading out they came across a nice herd of impala and Delmar took down a
nice one Als turn came next where after following a herd of blesbuck he took one down
at about 150 yards with it dropping after a second shot in its front quarter

they spotted them after about 30 minutes Delmar took a 320 yard shot knowing that he

McLemore Father and Son Hunt We met Henry McLemore Snr and Henry Jnr at the SCI Hunters Convention in Las Vegas
earlier on this year We were very excited when they decided to book their safari with us
with the main focus being a buffalo for Henry Jnr On top of that both father and son shot
some beautiful plains game and did an amazing job Henry Snr sent us some information
on how they experienced the hunt
We could only see one of the five buffalo that we knew were in the reeds After flushing
them we may have gone almost a mile to get ahead of them and down wind After three
shots with the 375 we finally anchored our trophy
The rest of the game was taken from about 80 yards on with a 300 mag The black
wildebeest was about 215 and the zebra at 285 The springbuck was also close to 200
yards The animals at the park just wouldnt let you get too close Our highlight was the
klipspringer taken at about 100 yds and uphill Only 10 minutes into the hunt

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

The group also enjoyed a night drive (albeit in the rain) where they spotted two lionesses
hyenas and African wild dogs African wild dogs are an endangered species and are a very
rare sight
On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day
All in all the Kruger trip was a great success and everyone really enjoyed it Next stop
some hunting and sight-seeing in the Limpopo

All aboard for the night drive
The group arrived in the Limpopo where the agenda was for the men to hunt and the ladies
to do some sight-seeing The following morning Al Ed and Delmar headed out on the
hunt They had decided not to bring their own weapons and instead made use of
Somerbys 308 Winchester and Remington Model 700
Soon after heading out they came across a nice herd of impala and Delmar took down a
nice one Als turn came next where after following a herd of blesbuck he took one down
at about 150 yards with it dropping after a second shot in its front quarter
Well done guys

The following day the hunters set off for yet another day of hunting this time on the

they spotted them after about 30 minutes Delmar took a 320 yard shot knowing that he

correspondence from Kerry Stewart enquiring about a safari for herself and her husband

fantastic bow and rifle hunting safari
Kerry let us know a little bit about how they experienced their time with Somerby Duncan

blinds All the animals shot with our bows were between 15 - 20 meters

One of the more memorable spot and stalk hunts began with us getting off the truck to
stalk a herd of blue wildebeest then our focus turned to a zebra that we came across then a
herd of impala caught our attention The hunt ended with Clay shooting a nice impala
Both zebra were the result of spot and stalk hunts that ended with celebratory
handshakes and hi-fives as both Nate and Clay took nice stallions

Stewart and Hall Safari Although we are incredibly fond of our American pals we always enjoy meeting hunters
that hail from other parts of the world and we were really excited when we received
correspondence from Kerry Stewart enquiring about a safari for herself and her husband
Duncan and their friend Blair Hall We were introduced to Kerry through Gerald and Sue
Telford some friends of ours that we met in Kansas City and who run Telford Fishing and
Hunting in Wanaka New Zealand
These hunters came all the way from New Zealand and it was an honor to host them on a
fantastic bow and rifle hunting safari
Kerry let us know a little bit about how they experienced their time with Somerby Duncan
and I both brought our hunting bows to hunt with so we spent a lot of time hunting from
blinds All the animals shot with our bows were between 15 - 20 meters

McLemore Father and Son Hunt We met Henry McLemore Snr and Henry Jnr at the SCI Hunters Convention in Las Vegas
earlier on this year We were very excited when they decided to book their safari with us
with the main focus being a buffalo for Henry Jnr On top of that both father and son shot
some beautiful plains game and did an amazing job Henry Snr sent us some information
on how they experienced the hunt
We could only see one of the five buffalo that we knew were in the reeds After flushing
them we may have gone almost a mile to get ahead of them and down wind After three
shots with the 375 we finally anchored our trophy
The rest of the game was taken from about 80 yards on with a 300 mag The black
wildebeest was about 215 and the zebra at 285 The springbuck was also close to 200
yards The animals at the park just wouldnt let you get too close Our highlight was the
klipspringer taken at about 100 yds and uphill Only 10 minutes into the hunt

After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area

earlier on this year We were very excited when they decided to book their safari with us
with the main focus being a buffalo for Henry Jnr On top of that both father and son shot
some beautiful plains game and did an amazing job Henry Snr sent us some information
on how they experienced the hunt
We could only see one of the five buffalo that we knew were in the reeds After flushing
them we may have gone almost a mile to get ahead of them and down wind After three
shots with the 375 we finally anchored our trophy
The rest of the game was taken from about 80 yards on with a 300 mag The black
wildebeest was about 215 and the zebra at 285 The springbuck was also close to 200
yards The animals at the park just wouldnt let you get too close Our highlight was the

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

The group also enjoyed a night drive (albeit in the rain) where they spotted two lionesses
hyenas and African wild dogs African wild dogs are an endangered species and are a very
rare sight
On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day
All in all the Kruger trip was a great success and everyone really enjoyed it Next stop

All aboard for the night drive
The group arrived in the Limpopo where the agenda was for the men to hunt and the ladies
to do some sight-seeing The following morning Al Ed and Delmar headed out on the
hunt They had decided not to bring their own weapons and instead made use of
Somerbys 308 Winchester and Remington Model 700
Soon after heading out they came across a nice herd of impala and Delmar took down a
nice one Als turn came next where after following a herd of blesbuck he took one down
at about 150 yards with it dropping after a second shot in its front quarter
Well done guys

The following day the hunters set off for yet another day of hunting this time on the

they spotted them after about 30 minutes Delmar took a 320 yard shot knowing that he
had the wildebeest as it jumped After tracking the bull for a good hour Delmar finished it

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

The group also enjoyed a night drive (albeit in the rain) where they spotted two lionesses
hyenas and African wild dogs African wild dogs are an endangered species and are a very
rare sight
On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day
All in all the Kruger trip was a great success and everyone really enjoyed it Next stop

The group arrived in the Limpopo where the agenda was for the men to hunt and the ladies
to do some sight-seeing The following morning Al Ed and Delmar headed out on the
hunt They had decided not to bring their own weapons and instead made use of
Somerbys 308 Winchester and Remington Model 700
Soon after heading out they came across a nice herd of impala and Delmar took down a
nice one Als turn came next where after following a herd of blesbuck he took one down
at about 150 yards with it dropping after a second shot in its front quarter

Stewart and Hall Safari Although we are incredibly fond of our American pals we always enjoy meeting hunters
that hail from other parts of the world and we were really excited when we received
correspondence from Kerry Stewart enquiring about a safari for herself and her husband
Duncan and their friend Blair Hall We were introduced to Kerry through Gerald and Sue
Telford some friends of ours that we met in Kansas City and who run Telford Fishing and
Hunting in Wanaka New Zealand
These hunters came all the way from New Zealand and it was an honor to host them on a
fantastic bow and rifle hunting safari
Kerry let us know a little bit about how they experienced their time with Somerby Duncan
and I both brought our hunting bows to hunt with so we spent a lot of time hunting from
blinds All the animals shot with our bows were between 15 - 20 meters
Duncan Kerry and Blair enjoying the view
Ladies first

McLemore Father and Son Hunt We met Henry McLemore Snr and Henry Jnr at the SCI Hunters Convention in Las Vegas
earlier on this year We were very excited when they decided to book their safari with us
with the main focus being a buffalo for Henry Jnr On top of that both father and son shot
some beautiful plains game and did an amazing job Henry Snr sent us some information
on how they experienced the hunt
We could only see one of the five buffalo that we knew were in the reeds After flushing
them we may have gone almost a mile to get ahead of them and down wind After three
shots with the 375 we finally anchored our trophy
The rest of the game was taken from about 80 yards on with a 300 mag The black
wildebeest was about 215 and the zebra at 285 The springbuck was also close to 200
yards The animals at the park just wouldnt let you get too close Our highlight was the
klipspringer taken at about 100 yds and uphill Only 10 minutes into the hunt

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

The group also enjoyed a night drive (albeit in the rain) where they spotted two lionesses
hyenas and African wild dogs African wild dogs are an endangered species and are a very
rare sight
On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day
All in all the Kruger trip was a great success and everyone really enjoyed it Next stop
some hunting and sight-seeing in the Limpopo

All aboard for the night drive
The group arrived in the Limpopo where the agenda was for the men to hunt and the ladies
to do some sight-seeing The following morning Al Ed and Delmar headed out on the
hunt They had decided not to bring their own weapons and instead made use of
Somerbys 308 Winchester and Remington Model 700
Soon after heading out they came across a nice herd of impala and Delmar took down a
nice one Als turn came next where after following a herd of blesbuck he took one down
at about 150 yards with it dropping after a second shot in its front quarter
Well done guys

The following day the hunters set off for yet another day of hunting this time on the
lookout for a blue wildebeest for Delmar The owner knew where a herd hung out and when
they spotted them after about 30 minutes Delmar took a 320 yard shot knowing that he
had the wildebeest as it jumped After tracking the bull for a good hour Delmar finished it

McLemore Father and Son Hunt We met Henry McLemore Snr and Henry Jnr at the SCI Hunters Convention in Las Vegas
earlier on this year We were very excited when they decided to book their safari with us
with the main focus being a buffalo for Henry Jnr On top of that both father and son shot
some beautiful plains game and did an amazing job Henry Snr sent us some information
on how they experienced the hunt
We could only see one of the five buffalo that we knew were in the reeds After flushing
them we may have gone almost a mile to get ahead of them and down wind After three
shots with the 375 we finally anchored our trophy
The rest of the game was taken from about 80 yards on with a 300 mag The black
wildebeest was about 215 and the zebra at 285 The springbuck was also close to 200
yards The animals at the park just wouldnt let you get too close Our highlight was the
klipspringer taken at about 100 yds and uphill Only 10 minutes into the hunt

Somerbys 308 Winchester and Remington Model 700
Soon after heading out they came across a nice herd of impala and Delmar took down a
nice one Als turn came next where after following a herd of blesbuck he took one down
at about 150 yards with it dropping after a second shot in its front quarter

they spotted them after about 30 minutes Delmar took a 320 yard shot knowing that he
had the wildebeest as it jumped After tracking the bull for a good hour Delmar finished it

McLemore Father and Son Hunt We met Henry McLemore Snr and Henry Jnr at the SCI Hunters Convention in Las Vegas
earlier on this year We were very excited when they decided to book their safari with us
with the main focus being a buffalo for Henry Jnr On top of that both father and son shot
some beautiful plains game and did an amazing job Henry Snr sent us some information
on how they experienced the hunt
We could only see one of the five buffalo that we knew were in the reeds After flushing
them we may have gone almost a mile to get ahead of them and down wind After three
shots with the 375 we finally anchored our trophy
The rest of the game was taken from about 80 yards on with a 300 mag The black
wildebeest was about 215 and the zebra at 285 The springbuck was also close to 200
yards The animals at the park just wouldnt let you get too close Our highlight was the
klipspringer taken at about 100 yds and uphill Only 10 minutes into the hunt

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

hyenas and African wild dogs African wild dogs are an endangered species and are a very
rare sight
On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day

McLemore Father and Son Hunt We met Henry McLemore Snr and Henry Jnr at the SCI Hunters Convention in Las Vegas
earlier on this year We were very excited when they decided to book their safari with us
with the main focus being a buffalo for Henry Jnr On top of that both father and son shot
some beautiful plains game and did an amazing job Henry Snr sent us some information
on how they experienced the hunt
We could only see one of the five buffalo that we knew were in the reeds After flushing
them we may have gone almost a mile to get ahead of them and down wind After three
shots with the 375 we finally anchored our trophy
The rest of the game was taken from about 80 yards on with a 300 mag The black
wildebeest was about 215 and the zebra at 285 The springbuck was also close to 200
yards The animals at the park just wouldnt let you get too close Our highlight was the
klipspringer taken at about 100 yds and uphill Only 10 minutes into the hunt

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

The group also enjoyed a night drive (albeit in the rain) where they spotted two lionesses
hyenas and African wild dogs African wild dogs are an endangered species and are a very
rare sight
On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day
All in all the Kruger trip was a great success and everyone really enjoyed it Next stop
some hunting and sight-seeing in the Limpopo

All aboard for the night drive
The group arrived in the Limpopo where the agenda was for the men to hunt and the ladies
to do some sight-seeing The following morning Al Ed and Delmar headed out on the
hunt They had decided not to bring their own weapons and instead made use of
Somerbys 308 Winchester and Remington Model 700
Soon after heading out they came across a nice herd of impala and Delmar took down a
nice one Als turn came next where after following a herd of blesbuck he took one down
at about 150 yards with it dropping after a second shot in its front quarter
Well done guys

while later

The following day the hunters set off for yet another day of hunting this time on the
lookout for a blue wildebeest for Delmar The owner knew where a herd hung out and when
they spotted them after about 30 minutes Delmar took a 320 yard shot knowing that he
had the wildebeest as it jumped After tracking the bull for a good hour Delmar finished it
off with 8 more shots

The next leg of the tour was a trip to the beautiful Victoria Falls - a sweet ending to a
wonderful holiday The group stayed on an island overlooking the Zambezi River After

saw crocs and hippos enjoying the water
The group did a tour of the Victoria Falls the following day and took a look around the
historic Victoria Falls Hotel where Queen Victoria of England stayed They also visited an
authentic African market and stopped to see an ancient baobab tree said to be 1700 years

day

After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

The group also enjoyed a night drive (albeit in the rain) where they spotted two lionesses
hyenas and African wild dogs African wild dogs are an endangered species and are a very
rare sight
On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day
All in all the Kruger trip was a great success and everyone really enjoyed it Next stop
some hunting and sight-seeing in the Limpopo

All aboard for the night drive
The group arrived in the Limpopo where the agenda was for the men to hunt and the ladies
to do some sight-seeing The following morning Al Ed and Delmar headed out on the
hunt They had decided not to bring their own weapons and instead made use of
Somerbys 308 Winchester and Remington Model 700
Soon after heading out they came across a nice herd of impala and Delmar took down a
nice one Als turn came next where after following a herd of blesbuck he took one down
at about 150 yards with it dropping after a second shot in its front quarter

off and after tracking it Al finished it off
The following day the hunters set off for yet another day of hunting this time on the
lookout for a blue wildebeest for Delmar The owner knew where a herd hung out and when
they spotted them after about 30 minutes Delmar took a 320 yard shot knowing that he
had the wildebeest as it jumped After tracking the bull for a good hour Delmar finished it
off with 8 more shots

The next leg of the tour was a trip to the beautiful Victoria Falls - a sweet ending to a
wonderful holiday The group stayed on an island overlooking the Zambezi River After
being collected from the airport they were taken to the lodge on a pontoon boat where they
saw crocs and hippos enjoying the water
The group did a tour of the Victoria Falls the following day and took a look around the
historic Victoria Falls Hotel where Queen Victoria of England stayed They also visited an
authentic African market and stopped to see an ancient baobab tree said to be 1700 years

probably been taken down by a lion The group enjoyed a last night enjoying the splendour
of the sunset and the river and were very sad to say goodbye and head home the following

Recuperating after the long journey at the Elephant Lodge
After spending their first night at the Elephant Lodge the group set out on the road to visit
the world famous Kruger National Park Their first stop after driving into the Kruger was
on a bridge where they viewed hippos and crocodiles about 10 feet apart in the Crocodile
River (a river that snakes through the park) Upon entering the park further the group
spotted giraffe impala zebra warthog and guinea fowl and were lucky enough to see about
100 elephants on top of a hill Experienced tour guide Natalie informed the group that
there may have been up to 400 elephants in the area
The group spent a few days in the park where they drove through the diverse landscape Al
describes it as flat like Western Kansas with high hills and the road cutting through the
valleys

The group also enjoyed a night drive (albeit in the rain) where they spotted two lionesses
hyenas and African wild dogs African wild dogs are an endangered species and are a very
rare sight
On one of the days the group also spotted two male lions under a tree and were lucky
enough to spot a leopard lounging in the shade of another Leopards are nocturnal and it is
very uncommon to spot these predators during the day
All in all the Kruger trip was a great success and everyone really enjoyed it Next stop
some hunting and sight-seeing in the Limpopo

All aboard for the night drive
The group arrived in the Limpopo where the agenda was for the men to hunt and the ladies
to do some sight-seeing The following morning Al Ed and Delmar headed out on the
hunt They had decided not to bring their own weapons and instead made use of
Somerbys 308 Winchester and Remington Model 700
Soon after heading out they came across a nice herd of impala and Delmar took down a
nice one Als turn came next where after following a herd of blesbuck he took one down
at about 150 yards with it dropping after a second shot in its front quarter
Well done guys

hunters spotted a herd Al put a shot on a nice mature bull in the shoulder The beast took
off and after tracking it Al finished it off
The following day the hunters set off for yet another day of hunting this time on the
lookout for a blue wildebeest for Delmar The owner knew where a herd hung out and when
they spotted them after about 30 minutes Delmar took a 320 yard shot knowing that he
had the wildebeest as it jumped After tracking the bull for a good hour Delmar finished it
off with 8 more shots

The next leg of the tour was a trip to the beautiful Victoria Falls - a sweet ending to a
wonderful holiday The group stayed on an island overlooking the Zambezi River After
being collected from the airport they were taken to the lodge on a pontoon boat where they
saw crocs and hippos enjoying the water
The group did a tour of the Victoria Falls the following day and took a look around the
historic Victoria Falls Hotel where Queen Victoria of England stayed They also visited an
authentic African market and stopped to see an ancient baobab tree said to be 1700 years

probably been taken down by a lion The group enjoyed a last night enjoying the splendour
of the sunset and the river and were very sad to say goodbye and head home the following
day
The group had a wonderful time in South Africa and Zimbabwe and highly recommend

All aboard for the night drive
The group arrived in the Limpopo where the agenda was for the men to hunt and the ladies
to do some sight-seeing The following morning Al Ed and Delmar headed out on the
hunt They had decided not to bring their own weapons and instead made use of
Somerbys 308 Winchester and Remington Model 700
Soon after heading out they came across a nice herd of impala and Delmar took down a
nice one Als turn came next where after following a herd of blesbuck he took one down
at about 150 yards with it dropping after a second shot in its front quarter
Well done guys

The next leg of the tour was a trip to the beautiful Victoria Falls - a sweet ending to a
wonderful holiday The group stayed on an island overlooking the Zambezi River After
being collected from the airport they were taken to the lodge on a pontoon boat where they
saw crocs and hippos enjoying the water
The group did a tour of the Victoria Falls the following day and took a look around the
historic Victoria Falls Hotel where Queen Victoria of England stayed They also visited an
authentic African market and stopped to see an ancient baobab tree said to be 1700 years
old

The following day was spent on an open vehicle game drive where they saw elephants
giraffes and many other animals They even saw the carcass of an African buffalo which has
probably been taken down by a lion The group enjoyed a last night enjoying the splendour
of the sunset and the river and were very sad to say goodbye and head home the following
day
The group had a wonderful time in South Africa and Zimbabwe and highly recommend
coming to visit with us to experience our land and culture
Thank you to Al Sandra Delmar Shirley Ed and Kay for joining us onthis epic African adventure We are so glad that you made so much ofyour time here with us and that you did so much You have the energy ofa group of 20 year olds Well done on your great trophies Al andDelmar We hope that you enjoyed your time in Africa as much as weenjoyed spending it with you and we hope that we will see you again
