Weather
It seldom rains during mid-April to September, but is
has happened on occasion. If it does happen to rain
during the hunt the ambient temperatures drop dramatically
to the mid-30’s. At other times it will be in the high
30’s to mid-40’s during the mornings, late afternoons
and evenings. During the day it will warm up to the
mid-60’s range. Even with these mild temperatures it
is still recommended to use sunscreen.
If you are here during our summer time (October-March)
the daily temperatures can exceed 110ºF on a daily basis.
Rain can also occur every other day depending on the
region you are in.

website.
Health
issues
During our winter months (May-August) you will hardly
see any bugs. All of the plains game hunting on our
package deals take place in regions within South Africa
that are malaria free. Some of the dangerous game hunts
can take place in malaria regions in which case it is
recommended that the required precautions be taken.
In the unlikely event that you do become ill for any
reason, we have suitable qualified doctors for any treatment/medication
needed. It is recommended that you purchase health insurance
before leaving your country of origin.
Privacy policy/Confidentiality
It is our policy not to make available any information
about any of our hunters to any third party.
All of the very important people who have hunted with
us can attest to that.
