Stay in the Great state of Texas! Too much game here on this continent to go anyplace else, even great fire pits!

DC LOL! I love Texas, but there is a very wide world outside the borders of the Lone Star state. Don't miss out on a good thing. Hunt Africa with a reputable outfitter and see something new.

DC I love TX too. I have lived in several different states and TX reigns supreme IMO. However, the prices being charged in TX for African game are beyond ridiculous.

I get that but a majority of SA especially Limpopo is smaller properties and I have no problem with how someone wants to hunt. In my opinion Namibia is huge wide open space and much more quality of a hunt than SA with that said great peoplein SA just different. Now going to eastern cape much more free range and larger properties in general. To each his own but JH Raider is correct in his statement. There are exceptions to everything.

Hi all.
I see a lot of interest in the Eastern Cape here. Have a look at LJ Safaris we hunt some quality properties in the Eastern Cape and have access to self sustaining herds. For example our karoo area is 70 000 acres, one property with big herds of Eland, Blue Wildebeest, Black Wildebeest, Gemsbuck and many more, all herds of a few hundred animals some even coming close to a thousand or just over. PM me if anyone wants more info.
Kind Regards
Juan Stander

I wouldn't restrict myself to a certain area because of them having small properties. Every area has small properties and most areas have larger ones. By small property I mean 1000 - 5000 acreas.
For your first trip, I wouldn't worry about that anyway. Even on a small property you will have a great deal of fun because it will all be new to you and if money is tight then hunting these might be the best way to go.
On each subsequent hunt you'll get pickier (and rightly so) about how you hunt.
