Seven hard hunting days, a lot of miles on foot, plenty of ups and downs, and memories that will stay with us for a very long time.

This was one of those safaris where nothing came easy. We walked hard, tracked for hours, dealt with changing winds, missed opportunities, and the kind of moments that test your patience and determination. But that’s real hunting, and honestly, it makes the success mean that much more in the end.

What stood out most on this hunt was not only the quality of the trophies, but the people behind the experience. In hunting, complete strangers often become good friends very quickly, and good friends eventually become family. Spending long days together in the bush has a way of building bonds that are hard to explain to people who have never experienced it themselves.

There is also something special about true sportsmanship amongst hunters. Celebrating each other’s successes, staying positive during the difficult moments, helping one another through the tough days, and appreciating the privilege of being out in wild places together. That is the side of hunting that means the most and often lasts far longer than the trophies themselves.

And in the end, we made it count. Mature animals, hard-earned opportunities, and trophies that speak for themselves. Every mile walked and every challenge faced was worth it.

That’s what a real African safari is all about.

Another solid hunt out here on the ranch, and a great time spent with Taylor.

From the start, this was the kind of safari we pride ourselves on — honest, hard hunting, done the right way. We covered plenty of ground on foot, working through the bushveld, reading sign, and taking our time to make things happen properly.

It all came together on a beautiful Cape buffalo bull. A proper, hard bossed bull with plenty of character. The approach was steady and controlled, using the wind and terrain to our advantage, closing the distance until the opportunity presented itself. At 14 yards the bull took off and Taylor made an excellent running shot right through the heart!

Over the rest of the hunt, we added a great mix of plains game. A strong gemsbok bull, tough and built for this country. A sharp impala ram. A solid blesbuck out on the too of the mountain that took patience and precision. And a springbuck in the river— always alert and never easy to get close to.

Each animal was taken with time, effort, and respect — exactly how it should be.

Beyond the hunting itself, it was just a thoroughly enjoyable safari. Good days in the field, plenty of miles covered, and relaxed evenings back at camp with good food and even better conversation.

Taylor, it was a pleasure having you out here. We appreciate you choosing to hunt with us and look forward to the next one.

This is what we aim for every time — a proper African hunting experience, done right.

Our 4th safari with Uncle Walt on the Lex Strauss Ranch was nothing short of phenomenal—truly one for the books. It’s always a pleasure having him back, and by now it feels less like hosting a client and more like welcoming a friend. From the moment he arrived, everything ran smoothly, and the atmosphere in camp was relaxed, enjoyable, and full of great energy.

The hunting was exceptional throughout. Conditions were perfect, and the bush was alive, which made for some exciting days in the field. Tracking Cape buffalo on foot is always intense, and this hunt delivered exactly that. After a solid stalk and some proper hard work, we got into position and Uncle Walt took a truly beautiful Cape buffalo bull—an outstanding animal and a well-earned trophy.

As if that wasn’t enough, he also managed to take a huge waterbuck, one of the better bulls we’ve seen, showing the quality of game we’re fortunate to have on the ranch. To round things off, a strong gemsbok was added to the list after a great hunt that required patience and precision in more open terrain.

Another incredible safari on the ranch—great hunting, great company, and top-quality trophies all around. Always a privilege having Uncle Walt out here.

The end of the track led us to this old brigadier — a true warrior of the bush. After 6 hard days on his trail, covering miles of unforgiving terrain, reading every sign, and staying patient when it mattered most, we finally got our opportunity and made it count.

This bull didn’t get old by accident. He knew every trick in the book — using the wind, doubling back, disappearing into thick country, and testing us every step of the way. Hunts like this aren’t given, they’re earned.

Massive respect to Uncle Walt — tough as nails and never once complained, even when the miles got long and the conditions got rough. That’s what real hunting is about: grit, perseverance, and seeing it through to the end.

These are the moments that stay with you forever. Not just the trophy, but the journey, the effort, and the story behind it.

This is why we hunt.
