After hunting this area very hard for 10 days for a buffalo for DT. It must be one of the best buffalo hunting areas left in Africa. Every day all day you can be hunting a dagga boy in thick jess. You may not always get as hot but you will always be in buffalo. The population of cape buffalo in this area cannot be matched by any other area I know. DT took a great bull on day 6 after following him for over 3 hours. He wanted an old bull with deep drops and big bosses – everything he wanted he got. On top of a good buffalo hunt we got to stay in an amazing camp right on the banks of the Zambezi with hippos and hyena lion sounds all night.

This hunt exceeded my expectations on every level. Dande is a beautiful area. The quality of game is top shelf. All the hard work of DAPU is paying off. Myles is the true definition of a professional hunter in every way and it was an honour to spend 14 days with him. The trackers and game scouts all worked incredibly hard and were truly invested in a successful hunt. This was truly the trip of a lifetime! My sincere appreciation goes out to all of the staff at CMS that made this hunt possible! D & LT- Nyakasanga

My first time back since 2014 and my first hunt in Nyakasanga. Nyakasanga is big and beautiful and rugged. Our camp on the Zambezi was comfortable, convenient to the great hunting. Great staff. Of course, great food and drink. A special adventure for me in that for the first time my wife LT accompanied me. At night we slept like babies as the hippos, elephants and hyena sang us to sleep. Len Taylor our PH took great care of us and made sure we never were without creature comforts. Thank you so very much Len for all of the attention. I shot a very nice old bull (what I wanted) buffalo after picking up tracks at a watering pan. We caught up with him and another dugga boy and one shot from my 375 H&H put him down in a very humane manner. I thoroughly enjoyed the pursuit every day and look forward to returning soon. DT I enjoyed my first time to Zimbabwe, Africa as a wife and non-hunter. I came to see the beauty of the country – scenic and animals. Totally loved the sunset by the fire and river. River is a treat. I was not disappointed. Cannot go without mentoring the perfect service and friendliness. Yummy food!! LT
