Hi All.

Had a great hunt recently. Each animal made us work hard for sure.
This week we are after Nyala, Bushbuck and Waterbuck...hopefully we get the same success with less effort, but I doubt it.

Have a great week ahead

Beautiful trophies! Congrats to you and the hunters

Very nice!!

Outstanding

Very nice looking animals. Congrats to the Hunter.

Great Looking animals. I'd love to do a plains game hunt someday!!

We only ended up with a day and a half to hunt, never managed to get onto a Bushbuck or Waterbuck but we still came away with a beautiful Nyala and great old Red Lechwe Bull.

Thanks for sharing the pics!

Beautiful pictures.

Thank you all for the kind words. I will try and update as the season goes a long. Next group of hunters arrives in 2 weeks, with a total of 22 species on the list. So watch this space....

Good pics

The last 10 days have been busy....but successful. Here is only a few of the pics from our guests last hunt.

Looks like you have a pretty good operation going over there. Thanks for showing us the pictures, they are great.

Guys we are booked with Jono and Kingsview Safaris in Oct. He has been awesome to deal with and the wife and I are extreamly excited to go with them. If you guys have questions I'll tell ya every thing I know so far. He also has a great rep named John that lIves in the states. You can find him on their website if you would like to get ahold of him as well.

Great pictures also

What a great bunch of guys to hunt with.

Good times!

Nice Job and great pics

Thanks for posting a few pics, Jono. We had an amazing trip, can't wait to get back over there. Was my third trip to Africa (Tanzania, Namibia) and was undoubtedly the best one. Kingsview safaris gets an A+ from the whole family. An excellent place to take your family - lodging/food incredible, the ranches we hunted were stunning to say the least - my wife said it was prettier than New Zealand. We took sable,waterbuck, 3 impala,2 zebra, red hartebeest, caracal,nyala, 2 kudu, baboon, 2 bushbuck, warthog, baboon, dassies... Trophy quality was outstanding, and the PH's worked hard and managed to keep the kids entertained with dassie hunting, chasing baboons, lots of memories. Can't wait to get back - hopefully we'll get another chance at maybe the 2 biggest warthogs in all of Africa (the blade runner and Jabberwocky) that gave us the slip. Jono and Jean worked hard at getting my wife and kids plenty of opportunities, Justine cooked amazing and was an excellent hostess, Elvis may be the best warthog spotter there ever was, can't say enough good things about Didier and Florbella at Zebra Lodge. If anyone has any questions regarding Kingsview, PM me and i'll call you - this trip couldn't have been better.

Thanks for the kind words Ted.

It was our pleasure to host you and the family! We had a great time getting to know you and hunting with you.
We look forward to the return and having another crack at The Blade Runner and Jabberwocky.

Keep well and all the best to the family!

eye doc your pms are full. Please call me when you get a chance we are going in Oct.and my wife has some questions for you. Thanks

Darrack

Outstanding trophies!!! Congrats to all involved

Darrack, will call you tomorrow, you and your wife will have a great time - they have an amazing place, and all involved are great people

Thanks all for the kind words! Next hunt lined up is 3rd September for 14 days...so keep an eye out for more photos!

Nice pictures!

14 days done and dusted. It wasn't easy but we worked hard and harvested some incredible trophies.
Very proud of the quality trophies we have at the moment.

That Hartebeast is awesome!!!

Not quite a photo but it shows 100% commitment

You can read the hunt report of this trip under the Outfitter & Guides section of THF

Looks like a great hunt!

We recently had a very nice couple join us from Sweden. The weather was great and the hunting even better!

Nice animals.

Very nice!

Awesome Jono

Man, that picture of the baboon, now I'm all hungry...

Thanks a lot.

Thanks guys, had some outstanding hunting trips so far, long may it last.



Here he is full scale

how does it taste ?

I've seen documentaries where the locals harvest monkeys for food,,,,,
would like to know

Our trackers and skinners absolutely love the taste of Baboon and would choose it over any other game meat.
It is extremely lean with little or no fat, can't say I have eaten it as I hate the little buggers.

Nothing goes to waste on our safaris, literally nothing.

Got to love hunting alongside the Indian Ocean

Walk'n'Stalk all the way. Free, fair and ethical. Hunting how it should be.

It's still a little early in the season for us and the days have been insanely hot. But when we got a call from Tessa to say she is on holiday with her folks from Germany and she has always wanted to hunt in Africa, then how could we say no. This young lady showed the maturity and respect of someone that has been hunting for over 30 years. It was a pleasure to hunt with someone who had such patience and drive to succeed. It was no easy task and she climbed a few hills before putting in a solid frontal on this old Impala ram. Waidmannsheil

Congratulations...

Great hunt.
On my bucket list since..????

Well when you ready to get started on that list let us know, we would love to help out.

Never been to the cape but it looks beautiful.

Finally some success with the Ghost in the Darkness. I had been feeding these pigs for over 2 weeks, waiting for them to come in early and become comfortable around the bait site. Hunting Bushpig is no easy task and we had 3 groups of hunters come in before we got success. These are beautiful animals and we just love hunting them. Our client sat for 6 hours before the pigs presented him with a shot, now that is patience!

Congrats to your client. I hear bush pigs are extremely wary game.

For those that might be interested, here is the video of the bushpig hunt...

We do more than offer top quality hunting!

We had some of Texas finest join us on a family hunt. What an incredible hunt this was, and not just because we harvested some great animals. Wonderful people!!

Absolutely love hunting The Grey Ghost. To get a double up on the same day is even more amazing. These giants are on their way back to Pennsylvania.

2 nice Kudu.

Some outstanding trophies, I like the Klipspringer the most and it looks like a Dandy.

Must be great hunting along side the ocean. A great dream for my remaining years. I'm there with you in spirit. This is the best post ever! Keep 'em coming .......

Thank you for the kind words. Will be sure to keep posting some more.

Why do we love hunting so much? Is it for the final kill? Certainly not, it's for everything else leading up to that moment. What a pleasure and an honor to do what we do! Truly blessed.

Very nice Jono. You've got one hell of a business there. WOuld love to join some day when the funds are available.

- Kyle

Thank you Kyle, much appreciated. Well, when those funds come through we would love to host you here in South Africa. You know we can cater for all types of hunters even those with tight budgets.

Wishing you all the best for any hunts you got lined up. Post some pics if you can.

Believe it or not, there are some things more important than hunting and Family is one of them! We spent an incredible week with the Reynolds family from Nebraska USA. What a pleasure to share so many cool experiences with a friendly, loving family like the Reynolds.
While father and son hunted, the wife and girls took the opportunity to explore many of the non-hunting activities we have on offer in the area. They went horse riding on the beach, quad bike riding through the mountains, went on an Elephant back safari, toured the Addo Elephant National Park and did a canopy tour through the Tsitsikamma Forest....Phew!
We were touched when they asked to visit the local creche we support to visit and spend some time with those less fortunate than themselves. It meant a lot to the boys and girls.
Providing Family Hunting Trips is what we are all about.

Finished up a great hunting trip with Brian from Georgia. Couldn't drop the hammer on a Kudu as they kept eluding us. Saw plenty of big bulls but they always had the high ground and saw us coming from far. Sneaky animals!
Still walked away with 2 great trophies and memories for a life time.

Nice trophies and beautiful photos

Do yourself and your family a huge favor, book your 2018 hunting safari with us so we can show you how beautiful the Eastern Cape of South Africa really is.

Beautiful animals.

With a little break between hunting guests, we took the opportunity to spoil ourselves with a bit of hunting!
There was an old Waterbuck bull that lived along the river in a deep valley, we had seen him a few times and he had given the slip to numerous clients wanting a Waterbuck. On this particular day, we saw him along the river bank but just seemed a little off color. My wife and I put in a stalk and with one well placed shot from the missus he was down!
While skinning him out we noticed numerous puncture wounds to his chest, abdomen and hind quarters. This old fella had obviously met his match and received a severe beating. I am thankful my wife took him as he was a worthy adversary and there is much history between us.

A short trip but fun none the less. Just 3 buddies from Dubai wanting to take in all the beauty that the Eastern Cape has to offer and boy did the weather play it's part. Absolutely stunning!
Hunting, Horse Riding on the Beach, Clay Shooting, Mountain Biking and Hiking all crammed into a weekend. Good fun!!

Beautiful lodge and great view!

With our 2017 season done and dusted. It was time for my wife and I to restock the deep freeze. You can read a review of our 2017 season by following the link to our website



>>>>> 2017 Review <<<<<

From our family to yours! Merry Christmas Everyone

Looks like you went after what I plan to hunt spring 2019, seeing some great harvested critters with Kingsview
okiehuntr

Thank you! With the recent good rains across all of our concessions we are expecting some outstanding trophies to come this season, so keep watching this thread for more. Very very excited for 2018.....but a little more excited for the Spring of 2019

The hunting sweats are real, suffering from hunting withdrawal. Can't wait for our first guests of the season to arrive so we can get out into the bush!

Thanks!

I love these animals so much I even named my dog after them!
Beautiful animals.

Not long until our 2018 season begins.

I took the time to head out and do a bit of pre-hunt scouting. Such a beautiful area got me thinking...

This beauty is headed for the deep freeze. We will make Impala sausage (Wors) out of him so our guests can enjoy it over a fire at lunch while we take a break from hunting.

Nice one

Memories are made out in the bush, stories shared round the fire and bodies rested for the next day. Your accommodation is so important on a safari. Intle Lodge is an amazing place and we love sharing this incredible place with our guests. .

A short little hunting trip with a group from Sweden. Was great seeing friends again and certainly one of the perks of being an Outfitter is meeting so many incredible people from around the world.

Nice animals

Great Job Jono cant wait till we see you guys

Lets get the ball rolling on this trip. Kent is here for his second trip with us and he is hitting the ground running with a fantastic Lechwe Bull shot along the river banks.

We didn't have much time on this hunt and the Zebra gave us the run around through every valley and mountain on the concession, but the boys from Salt Lake City dug in deep and never stopped working hard. Dropping a big old stallion and beautiful Nyala bull.

What a great hunt this was.

Been a very busy past couple days. Busy but successful. We hosted two gentlemen from Saudi Arabia each taking an Impala and two of Vermont's finest as Gary and David worked through a variety of animals.

I absolutely love hunting these incredible animals! Wouldn't you like to have a crack at the Grey Ghost??

A very nice couple from Germany hunting in South Africa for the first time. The Kudu gave us a real run around for a couple days, strong cold winds and a nearby fire with heavy smoke seemed to keep them on edge. None the less we came away with some great animals and had a fantastic time.

Thanks for sharing.

Managed to squeeze in one day of hunting for myself. Took my best friend along and thankfully we connected on this giant. Very tough hunt and surely one that will never leave the memory bank.

Very nice Eland. I went on my first safari in 1993 and failed to get an eland. They just never stopped running, and they where always running!!! My second safari was in 2014 and an eland was at the very top of my list. Now it's one of my favorite mounts on the wall!!!

Congrats on the Eland!

Yes sir, this big fella certainly lived up to that, they ran over valleys without breaking a sweat. Pure luck was on our side, a hard of Giraffe bumped them back into a valley as we were approaching. A quick setup and 2 shots later he was down. The retrieval on the other hand.......

Epic pictures

A very challenging hunt. Temps hit 107'F which made for some dangerous conditions. We hunted early and thankfully some well placed shots got the job done. A very happy client from Norway.

Had a wonderful family from German and a Father/Son from the Czech Republic get our 2019 season up and running. What a great hunt and fantastic people. Always a pleasure meeting people from all over the world. And even more humbled that they would choose us for their hunting safari.

Our season is truly up and running. We had Tony from Wyoming hunting with his bow and Nils from Germany brought his family for a short hunting trip.

A lot of happy hunters, beautiful trophies. Forrest

Had the pleasure of hosting Ilya and his wife from Russia. It's still humbling knowing people travel from all over the globe and trust us with their hunting safari. Thank you for the support.

Good looking animals

Kent and Jody made it out for their 3rd trip with us in 2 years. Always a pleasure seeing them, hunting with them and spending time round the fire laughing at past hunts.

We welcomed back Darrack and his lovely wife Veronica for their second trip with us. Another incredible trip with amazing people.

More photos on the way!!
