Can I just say so many thanks to all, your Matombo camp is a delight, the views stunning and all the camp staff, great.. Obert produced some excellent meals and tasters, I shall remember those Zebra steaks served at 02:30 after 10 hours in a blind for ever -sublime and absolutely delicious!!! Gareth and his team were brilliant, non stop daily checking and refreshing etc. fascinating. In the cab swoping stories whilst traveling bait to bait, I learnt a lot…. By the end we had about a dozen different cats on 9 (?) baits showing on trail cams - at least two were well grown cubs getting free meals and their mum’s getting time off from hunting - we gave ‘em good start in life!!! The most frustrating thing was being unable to move or turnaround when the Tom we were after came at 17:30, he lay down just two feet behind Owen whilst we all froze in the blind. He stayed for a while, gradually moving away in stages before dropping down to his mewing mate in the valley below. He hid behind a rock while She fed like clockwork, we guessed we weren’t busted but I do wonder if he was giving us the bird !!! When he leapt up onto the bait, hooked claws and swung on it, taking just one bite before dropping off and disappearing never to be seen again! The next (last) evening a different female and cub appeared and fed on the same bait… As for the Buff hunt - that’s real hunting!!! The malevolence in his eyes as came is well imprinted. Outstanding!
