Fresh back from Bloemfontein after spending 10 days or so wing hunting and messing about with rifles (in the evenings). It was always going to be a great trip and with record goose numbers this was no exception.
Now next year is a special birthday for me so talking to the guys in Bloem i have sketched out a plan for next years trip around the end of May with a weeks wing shooting and a week on safari. The question is what to hunt on safari? The plan is to do the wing hunting around Bloem and the safari on the east coast details not yet provided but the hunting area is due east from Bloemfontein.
Last year i spent a fantastic morning and day hunting Baboon in the mountains and I would like to repeat this for a male. It was a great combination of being tough, some risk without being too concentrated on a single animal and sensibly priced.
I was thinking Baboon, Bush buck, Bush pig Hyena and Jackal. Any other suggestions as to what else to add to my list would be welcome.
My plan is to take my 233 with NV and use whatever else I need whilst I am out there.
