Schoongezicht Hunting Safaris

20/04/2025

A very blessed rainy season brought some tough hunting conditions, but that didn’t stop us! We had a great week, and the hunters form Muvhimi Buffalo Safaris and some local hunters managed to take some incredible animals. For the hunters willing work hard, the rewards speak for themselves.

Sport-hunted trophies are exempt from the trade tariff.

Important Update for USA Clients:

We understand that the recent announcement of a 30% trade tariff on goods exported from South Africa to the USA has raised concerns within the hunting industry. However, we have some positive news to share!

Hunted trophies (including Dip & Pack and Taxidermy) will not be subject to the tariff.

Purchased items like curios or stock items will attract the tariff.

Shipping costs remain unaffected by the new tariffs.

Rest assured, we’ll continue to keep you informed as we navigate these changes. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to reach out!

Despite challenging hunting conditions, Danielle from Portugal harvested two magnificent trophies! 🦌🏆 Our area, Rooibokkraal (meaning Impala Kraal), lives up to its name—producing some of the finest Impala trophies consistently. 🌍 Very few places in the world can boast such incredible hunting opportunities! 🏹

As many of you may have seen in the news, the Bushveld has experienced an unprecedented amount of rainfall, with approximately 250-350mm (10-14 inches) falling over the last few days. While we, as farmers, are always thankful for the rain, it has unfortunately led to flooding in our area. We’ve also suffered significant damage to our crop farms.

Big areas are now cut off from the outside world, with roads being flooded and inaccessible.

Our thoughts are with all the farmers who have experienced severe losses, particularly those near the rivers.

In addition, the Molatedi Dam in the Marico River, which was built in 1984 and has only overflowed once, back in 2000/01, is now standing at 135%. This dam supplies water to our irrigation farm, and also Gaborone (the Capital of Botswana) and a huge amount of water is now flowing past our farms along the riverbank.

While we anticipate that the rain will benefit our grazing, it will also make hunting more challenging this year due to the long grasses and thicker vegetation.

Farming is definitely not for the faint of heart.

Willem Alberts' Legendary Non-Trophy Buffalo Hunt at Schoongezicht 🦓🏹

When you think of the game Rugby, one of the names that stands out is Willem Alberts – AKA The Bone Collector. A Springbok rugby legend known for his strength and fearsome presence on the field, Willem recently embarked on a legendary hunt at Schoongezicht. But this time, he wasn’t chasing victory on the rugby pitch – he was hunting a non-trophy buffalo.

At Schoongezicht, we believe in the value of a non-trophy buffalo hunt – not only is it an incredible experience, but it also offers exceptional value for money. A great way to start a Hunter's Big Five career.

Willem, with his relentless spirit and respect for the wild, took on the hunt with the same intensity and focus he brought to every match. A hunt like no other, where adventure meets true sportsmanship.

Huge respect to The Bone Collector for proving that great experiences don’t need to be defined always by trophies.

Early bird catches the worm!

A big shoutout to Gergo Molnar from Hungary for making his first trip to Schoongezicht! His visit has set the bar high, for the quality of trophies we’re seeing.

If this trip is any indication, the hunting season ahead is going to be incredible. With trophies like these, Schoongezicht is ready for one unforgettable season!

We can't wait to see what other hunters bring to the table. The countdown to the season is officially on!
