The Eastern Cape is a Malaria and Bilhazia free area. Hunting is done all year round, the best times being from March to October.

After an unforgettable Nyala hunt, Lonnie just had to share his experience! Congratulations on this stunning trophy and a truly well-earned success. Lonnie took this beautiful Nyala with his own .308 rifle at 160 yards — a perfect shot and an even better memory to take home. What an incredible experience out in the African bush!

The striking stripes of the plains zebra are more than just beautiful markings — every zebra has a completely unique stripe pattern, much like a human fingerprint. These bold black-and-white stripes help confuse predators when the herd moves together and may even assist in keeping biting insects away. Tough, adaptable, and iconic to the African bush, the zebra is one of Africa’s most recognizable and fascinating animals.

A zebra rug is definitely one of the favourite items to ship home!

You don't see this every day. A few years ago, Charles was driving early one morning when he spotted this magnificent, free-range kudu bull. It moved so gracefully, clearing the fence effortlessly in the crisp morning light.
​This shot has been shared on various platforms since, but it never gets old. There is nothing quite like the sight of a big, wild bull in his element.

The Red Hartebeest is one of Africa’s toughest and most entertaining antelope to watch. Known for their speed, curious personalities and awkwardly elegant faces, they can run at incredible speeds. Their rich reddish-brown coats glow beautifully in the African sunlight, making them a striking sight out in the bush. One of the most interesting things about a red hartebeest is its unique horns — both males and females have them, and they grow in a distinctive “S” shape. The horns sweep outward and then curve inward again - which they use for dominance battles and defending themselves from predators.

Steve was determined to get a black impala on this trip, and after several long days of hunting, his persistence paid off. He managed to secure one of the top items on his list — the striking black impala. Well done, Steve!

Fun fact: The black impala is a rare color variant, known for its deep, glossy coat that makes it one of the most sought-after trophies among hunters and wildlife enthusiasts.
