Where to go for the attached specimens?

Michael,

Glad to hear you have decided to try Africa. The species that you have listed are readily available in many areas of South Africa and I can tell you from my experiences in the country that it is a very friendly, stable, and beautiful place to visit. I have been to SA twice in the past two years and have my third trip planed for June of next year to the Eastern Cape. The area I hunt is extremly rich in game and it is not uncommon to see 8-10 species a day.

All the animals on your list can be hunted in the Eastern Cape, however, as Grayghost noted, the Kudu we hunt there are the smaller Eastern Cape variety. If I may, I would recommend that you also consider hunting a bushbuck when you go. These spiral horns are extremly wary, hang out in some of the most challenging terrain, and are truly a challenge to take. They are number one on my list next year.

Feel free to drop me an email if you would like and I will be happy to share some of my experiences or just talk African hunting with you. One thing is for sure, once you go, you will return.
