PH Comment - Gareth

A great first time safari with CM Safaris for LE. We hunted Dante East and spectacular number of plains game was seen. Great numbers of roan, kudu, buffalo and impala. We put in may hard, long miles tracking lone sable bulls, getting in close multiple times but unfortunately no clear shot available and bust by fickle gusting full moon winds. Tracking was amazing. To stay on a single sable bull track all day through groups of roan and other game. We managed to sneak in close to a lone dagga boy and LE made 3 quick very precise shots, and the bull fell over on the spot. 2 old impalas, a jackal and a big hyena taken by LE. A very enjoyable and memorable hut with LE and his family. Looking forward to the next one.

Client Comment

I had a great hunt. It feels good to work hard for the animal and then be successful. We worked hard and long for sable but did not have success in the end but it was still rewarding. Gareth is a real professional and great to hunt with.
