GE - Nyakasanga

Client Comment

This year we went hunting in Nyakasanga with Alan and David in the last two weeks of March. The first three days were really difficult because of heavy rain during the night, followed by unfavorable road conditions in some parts of the area. United we made the best of it and so we had hunting success even these hard days. Some days heat and very high humidity pushed us to our limits during our game drives. But with persistence and endurance Alan set an example we all followed. So we managed to have great hunting experiences even on these extra hot and muggy days. On a walk back from a stalk - in addition to great plains game hunts - we were lucky to spot an imposing hippo bull in a very big lake. We took the opportunity and I was able to shoot the bull at 60m with a frontal brain shot - a great and exciting experience because the bull was very nervous and threatened to notice and attack us. In two exciting and thrilling buffalo hunts, we also had great success: T. was able to kill her very first buffalo with her .416 in a thick bush at 15m - under difficult conditions with a perfect shot. We still wonder how Alan spotted the buffalo in this dense bush and brought T. so close. It was an unforgettable experience for her, which will remain in her memory for the rest of her life. After a two hours stalk, E. was able to get a very well placed shot with the .416 at a great buffalo. Nevertheless a search was necessary, where E. was able to attach two more good shots. One can imagine that a buffalo search is connected with particular tension. By the end, E. had to rely completely on her PH Alan, who kept E. within shooting distance to the buffalo very professional and with great care. In this 14 days of hunting we saw countless elephants and stalked about 9 or 10 bulls - four really strong ones being tagged. Finally we were lucky and able to spot a suitable elephant bull at the last hunting day - taken by frontal brain shot with 500 Jeffery. Every single day we got an insight in Alan's great experience with big five - all time he gave us a lot of self-confidence and safety on this great dangerous game. The camp is located right next to Zambezi and fulfils your stay with fascinating moments - a marvellous and exciting experience. Sometimes lions, hyenas and elephants track through the camp. Alan, David and their crew, as well as the entire environment create this hunt to an unforgettable, amazing adventure. It's a perfect location with breath taking natural scenery and extremely nice and competent. Greetings to Zimbabwe
