Cost of a buff hunt?
      #143777 - 16/10/09 04:12 AM

Wondering what the total price, start to finish, of the average successful Cape buffalo hunt is. PH, trackers, licenses, trophy fee etc. Doesn't need to be itemized, but for those who have hunted them, do you remember roughly what the total cost was?

All in? Better plan on 20K including airfare, tips and some of the more minor plains game animals.

Think in todays economy and where you went, you could get by for a bit less..there are deals around, especially in places like Zim..

500,

Don't think I have commented on your new pic by your name--impressive...

10 to 20 thousand US incl Air and depending on time of year.
You can get good deals at this time of the season but it gets super hot thus making it not as enjoyable.

Yes, and it could convince a fellow to spend money on things other than rifles and hunting!

Nice pic, 500,
but I sometimes visit this forum when things are slow at work. Hopefully the wrong person won't come past and accuse me of visiting porn sites.

Cheers

Come to OZ and hunt a decent water buffalo for A$6K plus airfare and incidentals at either end of the trip.
