Self-guided dangerous game hunting?

Has anyone planned and, successfully, done a self-guided hunt for buff and ele in africa? I'm thinking of doing such in a couple of years time, and like to gain some experience from others if possible. I'm not particularly interestend in large ivory or tremendous trophies, but I Do want a top experience, and the satisfaction of achievement... bringing home "the bacon" by myself with help only from a native crew.

I've thought of Cameroon as an alternative, but have understood that the heyday is over when it comes to elephant?
I don't speak french, but beeing norwegian I've read german over a few years at school along with mandatory english. Does this rule out Cameroon as I can't speak French?

How about CAR, huntable for Big-game? Any classic East-african country also interesting. But I've got a feeling the hunting-companys keep most of the hunting areas that hold game in those countries? Countries that has a well built huntingindustry....
I reckon the major issues will be, finding game, or rather: areas that hold game that are huntable..? How to obtain hunting perits and stack together a crew that works...
I'd like it to be a foot-safari as much as possible...! Long days in the wilderness with only the basic gear, and a warming campfire by night.

Thankful for any advice, or contact with other keen hunters!
