We went to the Eastern Cape region with Lucca Safaris
Both of us enjoyed both the camp life and the hunting.

We ate from every animal harvested,the rest went to the camp staff and their families first. What is left over goes to the local people,nothing is wasted at all.
And you are right, the Gemsbuck is great,but then so was the rest of the animals
