Joe Marino: South África Hunting Safari Report

South Africa Cape Buffalo and Plains Game Hunting Safari
July 5-13 , 2021

We had a great hunt in different concessions while hunting in South Africa for cape buffalo, kudu, zebra, blesbuck, impala, blue wildebeest, duiker and bushbuck. The outfitter knows his business!

What a end to a day! Congratulations Mr. José on a spectacular bushbuck and some good shooting. Not only does he have massive horns but the color on this male is just stunning.

José made a perfect 195 meter shot with the 375 H&H to secure this old kudu bull as he was browsing unaware of our presence.

The end of a great safari, thank you Mr. José for supporting our hunting company it was a great pleasure having you in camp and a big congratulations on your wonderful trophies.

This huge old bull scores 120 1/2″ SCI and is 41 6/8″ wide with incredible drop!

A different angle of the Buffalo bull we hunted a few days ago, just can’t get enough of this amazing looking bull.

My most memorable and rewarding experience.

This was my first guided hunt, and the outfitter was amazing. He was able to keep me motivated and encouraged to hold out for true trophies. I would rate him on an 11 on a scale of 1 to 10! I never thought Africa would be a reality for me. Thank you Outdoors International.

Dason Lasater / OI Draw Winner

I didn't think an experience like this was possible.

This trip, was, for me at least not just a trip, for me it was a real adventure, a real experience. I love the wilderness and this trip afforded me the opportunity to connect with the Alaskan wilderness in ways very few people do. It was an experience I will never forgot in a place I can’t wait to get back to.

The outfitter handled everything perfectly.

We were thankful that Outdoors International hooked us up with a great outfitter because they were able to find us an acceptable alternate on short notice. Overall the two year process to get this float in was seamless and worry free. Just like it should be.

Thank you,
Stan Masneri

What an amazing experience!

The lodge was out of this world! Our rooms, the delicious food, the incredible wildlife and the scenery were amazing. Our photo safari guide was truly exceptional and had us on animals almost constantly. We saw over 30 different species and had some incredible up close experiences. Africa is amazing!
