We hunted with Game4Africa in the eastern cape.  With the direction prices are going for outfitted(and out of state tag prices) South Africa you get alot more bang for your buck.  The amount of animals that you see(and can hunt) is incredible.  Not to mention the incredible cultural experiences you can have over there.  I don't think I have ever met anyone who has gone to Africa and not dreamed of going back. 
Angry Perch:
Awesome stuff! Looking forward to hearing and seeing more!!
Jason:
Awesome trip you all had!.

I'm going with three buddies to South Africa in October of 2026, not looking forward to the long flights.

So day 2 which was technically our first full day was pretty epic as well.

Started off hunting for zebra. All four of us wanted to shoot a zebra but that didn’t seem right so we decided to have my daughters shoot it out. Closest to the bullseye would shoot the zebra. My youngest had won that contest back home. That is why the oldest got to shoot the impala yesterday.

They prefer that you shoot old dry female zebra. If you shoot a mature male it creates chaos in the herd unless it is an old male that has been kicked out. We found what the guide thought was the oldest mare and my daughter belly crawled into position. She stood up and took a 120 yard shot quartering to, it almost summersaulted the zebra and my daughter. The zebra didn’t go 100 yards and expired.  The herd came into view and no stragglers. They started barking, yes barking kind of like coyotes. The guide said the zebra is dead between where it was shot and where the herd stopped. We found it not even 100 yards away from where she shot. Zebras apparently are tough animals and we were thrilled there was no need for a follow up shot. We are going to make a zebra rug with this. More of the story to come later.

There tons of Blesbuck in this area so my wife grabbed the rifle and put a stick on two older bucks that were running by themselves. These are beautiful animals with lots of cool colors.
