If you consider this hunt is for TWO hunters so far the highest bid is only US$2250 each !!!!! Plus two observers!
What a cheap way for someone or two, especially someone who has not hunted Africa before, to go.
Why not take the entire family of four, and two of you get to hunt.
Mark,
I myself am seriously tempted.
Anyone else interested?

Hey people, this looks like a great deal. 2 hunters, 2 observors, 10 days and trophy fees for six animals.
Around $5000 per last high bid posted. Around $2100 trophy fees for 2 large animals and about $1000 + for the 4 smaller ones, leaves about $200 per day for 2 hunters and 2 guests !!!! (ie $100 each a day). Where can you find a deal like that today?
Hell I have agonised over it myself several times. If another person was interested I might even be tempted again.

Don't be saying that man - unless you want to hunt with a second-timer Yank.

If I hadn't committed myself somewhat to another (provisional) hunt with an NE member(s) I would definitely be bidding on this.
For a couple of couples or a family of four .......
