PH Comment - Myles

Such a fun, intense and physical! Zambezi Valley Buffalo hunt, with lots of ups and downs. In the end of the 7th day after seeing buffalo morning of every day, we finally connected. It was C’s first with her Dads 500/416 NE with a perfect quartering on shot – he went 30 paces only. The herd hung around, so CM also shot his bull was quartering on, at 60 paces with his 458 Loft. Two great bulls taken.

Client Comment

This hunt is one we will cherish for our entire life. My husband and I wanted to come to Zimbabwe to hunt Buffalo and Myles delivered! He had us on Buffalo every single day and on day 7 1 finally took my first buff. Minutes later, when we saw the herd had not run off, Myles jumped into action to get my husband a shot for his buffalo and he was able to shoot one from the same herd. During our trip, my husband and 1 celebrated our wedding anniversary. On our way back to camp after a long day of tracking Buffalo, we came around the corner to a beautiful candle lit dinner under the stars that Myle's had orchestrated. He thought of everything and made this the most memorable hunting experience. From booking the hunt to our final days of the trip, CMS has been amazing to work with. We hope to hunt with them again!
