I've done the primitive hunting thing in North America and always enjoyed it. In RSA we stayed in a glorified motel but it was fun and a necessary compromise for wives and such. I've never gotten sick or seriously hurt on any hunt but I can appreciate where a "glorified motel" would be awfully nice in a tight situation. I've gone on a couple of primitive hunts where all some of the guys did was bitch about being too hot, too cold, too old, too wet, too dry, too bug bitten, too overlooked, and too neglected. I'd have just as soon they were in a "glorified motel" and happier some where else; if that could have been realistically possible. My best primitive hunts have been with just a guide or by myself where I didn't have to listen to the complaining. As one outfitter once said to me after listening to a hunter's line of crap: "People say they want it rough, but they really don't want it too rough." Frankly, I think he's right and there are very few that I would consider being on a primitive hunt with. It takes a special sort of person.
