I hunted South Africa for Cape Buffalo in 2006. (it was my first safari)
It was the biggest mistake and waste of money in all my years of hunting.
Among other problems, what the outfitter had described to me as his "concession" turned out to be leased access on a tiny property with a single resident herd of buffalo.
Talking to people, this is a pattern that you hear about a lot.
I've taken two bulls in Zimbabwe since then.
Go to Zim or Mozambique or Tanzania and hunt a real wild bull. Shooting one out of inventory that was purchased from a breeder and brought in on a truck (complete with ear tag) is not really hunting if you ask me.
Just because there are lots of these operators in South Africa - doesnt mean that they are ALL the same!!
