Story

Picked up a last minute discount hunt through John Martins for a cape buffalo. The weather was sunny and warm, mid 80s. We finally located buffalo late the first day. Day 2 was a constant bump and run with them. On day 3 we finally got a good look and was able to move in for a shot. 5 shots later he was down. They are extremely tough guys! Day 2 we left camp at 6 am and got back to camp at 9:15 pm. My firearm is a Mossberg Patriot in .375 Ruger. I was using 300 grain Swift A-frames. They did a great job. Highly recommend them. Also took a 40 inch sable, a zebra, and a blesbuck.


Additional Info

I was walking 2 hours a day, 5 days a week. Still not enough to be fully prepared. Thick vegetation and lots of thorns. Be in good shape, ready to walk and above all listen to your PH.


Recommendation

Absolutely!!!! this outfitter was great. Very nice camp, great food, and the camp staff and all of the PH's were very professional and helpful.
Mr. Martins provided plenty of information and advice as I planned the trip. Highly recommend. Feel free to call or email me, would be glad to discuss anything with you.

A big thanks to John for making a DG hunt a reality for a mid-60 year old guy with heart disease. You can't go wrong using his service.
