if you want to go shoot kudu, male lion, eland, and sable and some of the other bigguns you can spend a mint. if ya want a fun, very very exciting dangerous game hunt and are willing to hunt a lioness and some basic plains game it can be done very very affordably. you could reasonably get the plane ticket, hunt a lioness, an impala, a springbok, and a blesbok and be out less than 10 grand. many don't even consider south africa b/c of the large fenced areas. the thing is they're huge, beyond huge and the big cats don't respect the fences anyway. they go through, under and over the fences when they please. it's a great hunt and beyond exciting. i highly recommend calling bobby hansen or see him at the dallas safari club or the vegas show. he has very reasonable rates for daily rate as well. i speak highly enough of him and the way he conducts his safaris and the sad thing is i'd have spent 5 times that much going with a well known tv personality just to be safe if gary didn't already know him and know how good he is. give him a call.
