Default African hunting Safaris

has any of yall been to Africa to hunt? and if so, what animals did you take? its my life's dream to hunt big game in Africa, and I know I will do it when i get older. My grandfather went to Zimbabwue in 1990, and while there he took a cape buff, deiker, waterbuck, greater kudu, baboon, heyina, impala, zebra, and a warthog. I got some pics if yall wanna see em.

ive hunted south africa. you will have a blast. i got treated like a king and it cost less for 6 animals than one north american hunt. check out the www.accuratereloading.com site. they have forums on hunting africa especially great for first timers. make sure you do alot of homework. you can get ripped off as with anything. id love to see some pictures!

A rather large Zebra he took at 350 yards with his .375 H&H. This makes SCI

There is no scoring system for zebras in SCI.

The zebra, hog, and buff are all cool animals.
