I think Africa is only limited by your dreams and your wallet.  It is easy to shoot a bunch of critters over there, the quantity of game is very impressive especially compared to Washington lol. 

When I did Africa I had one target animal that I really wanted, Kudu, and then kind of built the hunt around that.  We ended up shooting impala, blesbok, and warthog.  We didn't hunt too many days as it was tacked onto another trip over there.  I'd love to go back, a Nyala is the one animal I wish that I had spent more time and money pursuing.

Possibilities are endless . Only limited by how much you want to spend . Keep in mind once you’re there if you can’ afford it shoot because it costs time and money to go back . Went last spring for the second time , going again next year .  I’d be happy to talk you you about it .

Great list of animals. Gotta decide if a fenced hunt is ok or not. Some of the fenced areas are huge but you will still see a fence from time to time. You will have a fantastic time.

I have gone several times. Don’t go on a hunt where they charge you by size of animal. Those are farm raised just to shoot. I did most of my African  hunting in 1990’s when it was extremely cheap compared to now. Sable trophy fee in Zimbabwe was only $750. Cape buffalo and leopard trophy fees were only $1200 each. It was great time to hunt Africa. On other hunts in South Africa I hunted ranches up to 150,000 acres

Africa is a great adventure and there are a multitude of animals but I find it advantageous to let the PH know what you want as your talking or booking with them call if you want to talk been 4 times
