Haven't hunted with them, but American gun writer Craig Boddington has hunted with them several times and has had some excellent hunts with them.From what I've seen and read, they appear to have their act together, with excellent hunting areas, and a good staff.

thanks mike. i reckon craig would have hunted with just about everyone by now!! Fine writer too. although in my opinion he's now going into the self-promotion business a little too much for my liking. still, his opinions are probably the most valid and up-to-date you can get from the current shooting press.

I tend to agree with you about his "self promotion". I'm also not to fond of his quantum leap into comercialization. I lost some respect for him when I started seeing those advertisements for the Sure Fire Flashlights, with him holding it alongside a downed Cape Buffalo in broad daylight. That being said, I believe he's a wealth of knowledge when it comes to hunting.

Usually Craig Boddington hunts with well setup outfits of reasonable reputation so that might be something to go by.

I imagine the outfitters he has used get a fair amount of business as a result of the publicity from the stories/films.
