The story

A life shaped by wild country.

Born in 1975 and raised in a farming and boarding-school environment, Myles grew up with hunting and nature at the centre of his life. In 1995 he began his apprenticeship with Roger Whittall, spending his first four years guiding bow hunters in the Save Conservancy.

That early work taught him the value of precision: for a bow hunter, wind, movement, distance and preparation all become critical. After earning his full licence in 1999, he hunted extensively in Chewore and the Save Conservancy, as well as in Tanzania.

Myles and Buzz established Charlton McCallum Safaris in 2006. Since then, much of his work has centred on Chewore and Dande, with long, challenging elephant and leopard safaris among the experiences he values most.
