Black,

My recent hunt in SA on a 10,000 acre farm was 100% fair chase. We took a jeep into the bush from whence we stalked on foot. Typical the PH and I made a large circle and returned to the jeep.

If we spotted game, then the stalked based on wind. The first three days was taking game of opportunity, by that I mean; I went after a large Kudu, Gemsbok or Eland. With my Eland in the bag on day three I decided only to take a bull Wildebeest with my double rifle.

The wildebeest can run 50 mph so if they spook, it's all over. You go back to the jeep and drive to where you think they ran and start over. I finally had my break on the final day because it was windy and we could get down wind. We snuck up on one and I got him at 30 yards with my double.

I feel that if you want to hunt on foot in the thorns and scrub, walk for miles, go days without a shot - then you can get that in RSA with a good outfitter.
