We want to thank you "again" for everything you did for us from the very beginning. Without your interaction, I don't think the trip would have turned out as well as it did from the transportation to the accommodations, to the overall trip itself. You made it so easy and it is very much appreciated. Our trip to South Africa was everything and more than what we had hoped for. I truly had the best time of my life; I didn't even want to come home (other than missing my family)! I have never experienced anything quite like it, and definitely plan on going back. James and his family were the greatest, even though the time spent with them was minimal, I felt a true connection. The "client" is the business, but they certainly aren't treated as such. As a client, you end up feeling more like part of their family. The PH we had was the best!!! His name was Dave (never did find out his last name) and, let me tell you, he is one Hell of a PH and individual. His patience, persistence, determination and overall personality was tremendous! He made everything worthwhile! In fact, when we make arrangements for our next trip to South Africa, it will be with a request for him to be our PH. My brother shot all his animals and decided to also take a female Wildebeest. His toughest challenge though was the Kudu and he truly believed he had a "Kudu Curse". It took four long days of stalking (seeing plenty of females), etc., until he shot a beautiful bull. In fact, the awe of everything made me also want to take an animal and so I did that very thing. I had never shot a rifle nor hunted an animal before. I have nothing against hunting because I was born into a family of hunters and married a hunter and now my son also hunts. It's just that I thought I could never kill an animal. Well my way of thinking was changed once I was in South Africa. Just being there and experiencing the whole hunting scenario pulled me right in. I felt as though I also wanted to personally experience the hunt and so it began. Dave took me to the rifle range and I shot a 300 magnum four times at 100 yards. The first shot was to the left of the paper, the second shot I nipped the left edge of the paper, and the third was a little further in on the paper, but all in the same vicinity (to the left). Then Dave shot to see if the gun was shooting to the left and such was the case. So after Dave readjusted the scope, I shot the fourth time and was on the middle crease of the paper about two inches in from the left side and so the hunt was on. Dave felt as though the best animal for me to shoot due to my lack of experience would be a Blesbuck. The stalk was on and I am proud to say I shot and killed my very first animal at approximately 120 yards with a 300 magnum, one shot, a few steps, and down. I thought if I ever killed an animal I would cry with guilt. I did cry, but it was due to pride and happiness. Charlie was so proud of me that he came running down the hill and hugged me and we almost fell to the ground. So the next trip will be a Zebra for me, a lioness for my brother, and a few others for Sabo. Well, Ed, I(we) want to thank you again for everything and you will be hearing from us in the very near future about making arrangements for our deep-sea fishing trip to Costa Rica next year and then after that our next trip to South Africa. Talk to you later! Sharon Lodging photos - Click on a photo below to enlarge: General information: Hunting Africa is the lifelong dream of many sportsmen. We have designed our packages to bring Africa within reach of everyone. This hunt takes place in the Eastern Cape area of South Africa. This is a region of varied terrain from fertile valleys to steep mountains. It is home to large numbers of game. The Karoo is cattle and sheep country much like the American South West. Many of the farmers allow us to manage game on their property for extra income. Eighty percent of our hunting takes place on the open range with standard cattle and sheep fencing. The other twenty percent is on high fence ranches. Certain species can only be hunted year round in a high fence area, thus we need to use these properties as well. We use different hunting techniques, this is usually dictated by the level of disability as well as the hunters preference. Walk and stalk and ambush: The hunter is carried into an ambush position in the portable chair by the 4 carriers. Due to the nature of the terrain disabled hunters usually have to make use of the ambush method but, where possible, 'walk-and-stalk' hunts are also conducted. In the hunting areas, many ridges overlook kloofs, gulleys and terraces and when hunters go after kudu, impala, blue wildebeest, mountain reedbuck or even bushbuck, they are carried in the chair along these ridges early in the morning and/or late in the afternoon. We stop frequently to glass for game. If the hunter cannot shoot from the spot, we work out an approach route and 'stalk' (carry him) closer to the animal. Quad Bike and Blind: We have ATV's which we drive around the bush, find a suitable site and sit out and wait for a shot. We also carry portable pop-up blinds that fit around the ATV. Trophy quality is guaranteed because of our trophy game management policies. Only mature animals are taken and a limited quota is set for each property. This allows a large number of animals on the land and also gives them time to mature into the quality trophies you seek. Our animals are all natural production and not bought at action and stocked. Our exclusive leases with landowners assures that we are the only ones taking the prime specimens off their properties. Seasons are reversed in South Africa from North America. May-August is winter and temperatures can get quite cold. Perfect hunting weather! Nov through March has warm to hot days followed by warm evenings. We usually hunt early and late this time of year with plenty of time to relax during the day. We have over 30 000ha in which to hunt in this area. The veld is varied - rolling hills with deep kloofs, open acacia thornveld and dense bushveld and patches of open grassland.  We now have a wheel chair friendly lodge which sleeps 4 disabled people. We have all the proper equipment, facilities and experienced guides to make sure your stay is comfortable and susessfull. The Lodge consists of a lapa/kitchen and four fully furnished chalets, gently sloping entry ramp, convenient low-placed light switches and a large, specially adapted bathroom with all the necessary amenities. The rooms are all level with adapted door widths and bed hights.  Gentle sloping ramps making the lodge totally accesable for wheel chairs. The bathroom is adapted with rails and support bar, at all the right hight. The hunters are loaded onto the back of the hunting vehicles with the aid of either a special lift or a ramp - depending on the chosen vehicle. Four helpers surround the lift platform at all times to stabilize the chair and assist in case something should go wrong. The lift is mostly used for people in heavy electrical wheelchairs or those who prefer not to use the ramp. Non-hunters are more than welcome! We encourage our clients to bring their families and offer a non hunting rate that reflects this. If your non hunter does not want to follow you in the field many optional tours can be arranged. We have many opportunities from camera safari to spas and golf. We will be glad to put together an exciting program of day trips from the lodge for the non hunter. Additional animals can be taken on all of our packages according to the following trophy prices. All additional animals are to be paid for in South Africa in cash or travelers checks. As always all animals wounded but not recovered must be paid for in full.

We have our own in-house taxidermy shop that you will be able to visit on your hunt. It is located at our Kudu Lodge. We only work on animals from our hunters and do not take in outside work. Your trophies never leave our possession so we are able to supervise them at every stage of the taxidermy process. There are two basic ways most animals are processed. First you can have the animals dipped, packed and shipped to your taxidermist back home. This process brings the completely dried hides and cleaned skulls to your facility were the maintaining process will begin. It takes around 3-4 months. The second option is to have the animals mounted by us and then shipped directly to you. This process takes between 9-12 months. Trophies are ready to go up on the wall when they arrive. Which ever option you choose we have a logistics firm that will handle all the shipping and paperwork for the process so you will not be bothered with all the details. Prices below are for the taxidermy services ONLY and do not include the crating, shipping, brokers, etc. You will get a final quote on these services once the animals are ready to ship. As hunters ourselves we realize how important the taxidermy process is to the overall experience of the hunt. Having our own facility to process your trophies allows us total control over the entire hunt so we can assure our clients nothing but the best in quality and service! Feel free to call us with any questions at any time as well as for updates on your mounts. Unlike many others where you would be dealing with a taxidermist who you never met and who can be difficult to get a hold of in a different country, you can call us on the toll free (888-710-9453) any time and we will answer questions and be able to get updates on your trophies as well as be at your side during the shipping process. Hunt well! Ed Taxidermy Price List: Prices subject to government taxes/levies or prices beyond our control. Prices and programs are subject to change without notice. All prices quoted in US dollars.
