10-day safari with assured opportunity at an SCI Gold Medal gemsbuck, springbuck, and steenbuck.
10 days, 3 animals, 1 x 1 $5,600 per person
This is your best chance to get into the record books...3 times! This outfitter hunts over 75,000 acres in the famed Kalahari Desert. This is ideal, prime terrain for trophy quality gemsbuck, springbuck and steenbuck. This hunt is entirely fair chase and is extremely challenging and very exciting.You will be guided by experienced Professional Hunters who grew up in this beautiful, rugged, and remote area of Africa, and by some of the world's most skilled trackers, the San people of Namibia.These trackers can see the faintest tracks in the red sands of the Kalahari enabling them to lead you to herds of gemsbuck that sometimes number in the hundreds. The hunting is done from specialized hunting vehicles - Range Rovers stripped down to save weight, which prevents them from sinking into the soft sand. When tracks are spotted, you will begin your stalk. Most times you will find yourself, your PH and the tracker "leopard crawling" through clumps of grass, which top the 50 - 60 foot red Kalahari dunes.
The outfitter can accommodate many types of hunters, of varying physical abilities.
The outfitter assures you will have ample opportunity to take an SCI Gold Medal gemsbuck, springbuck and steenbuck or the trophy fee will be refunded to you for any animal not taken.
Now for the fine print: This assurance is void if you miss more than 3 shots at any one species, or if you injure and lose an animal. Please be sure to practice shooting before your trip.
