From my experience there's unethical behaviour in most if not all industries and in all businesses and it puts us believers in high ethics in a very difficult position. If we hear of an unethical practice should we tell people or not. If we do, it can and probably will be construed as just sour grapes and trying to put down the opposition and if we don't, we may be encouraging it......or at least giving it our tacit approval.

If we hear of someone booking a hunt in an area we know there is little game or with someone who we know is a crook, or for some reason we know the client will have problems getting his trophies out, should we keep quiet and mind our own business or should we say something?......at the end of the day, the client is a big boy and it's his (or her) money, so what business is it of ours to tell them how to spend it....

You might notice that if I ever post anything "unpleasant", I'll never mention personal or company names as I consider it not only unprofessional but also open to allowing forum members (and others) to misinterpret my post as just a cheap shot at the competition.....same thing I guess!

As I said in an earlier post, I wasn't sure about posting the information, but in the end I felt I would be doing the principal of the forum a disservice if I took the cowards way out and kept quiet.

South Africa has it's fair share of great hunting, it has some great outfitters and great PHs......but some are "not so great" and the best way any client can avoid many of the pitfalls is to hunt SA for what it best for .......plains game.

Hunters need to realise that there is no such thing as a truly wild Lion or Elephant there and that the licencing system for some species is not organised enough to be sure of getting a fair chase hunt (esp) for Dangerous Game......
