The hunts can definitely be done with a bow.  Costs vary widely from outfit to outfit, the costs are mainly comprised of daily fees and a per animal species/trophy fee.  This hunt was a donation/auction hunt through SCI and that covered the daily fees.  The species/trophy fees ranged from $440 for an impala to $2,250 for kudu.

The closest town was Mkuze, we did travel through Pongola on our way to hunt near Vryheid once, not sure where Hula Hula is in relation to where we were.

Very interesting and fantastic pictures! What will you do with the giraffe? I can't imagine a wall mount, it would be so big. A rug would be awesome, they have beautiful coloring.

I'm doing a shoulder mount, probably on a short pedestal base maybe using some of the skin as inserts.  The highest ceiling in my house is the front entrance, when I told my wife where I hoped to put the giraffe she was completely in favor of the idea - I'm a lucky guy, she likes taxidermy.

I saw a few bulls bigger than him, but that's one of my favorite photos from the trip.
