Event Name: South Africa Hunting

It was an amazing trip. The amazing culture of the South African people was an education of itself. It was really interesting to see how different their culture was from ours. The diversity of game was one of the most surprising experiences. It was nothing to see 5 or 6 species in one sitting from Wildebeest to Blesbuck to Impala. I have never heard of a place where there was such a variety at one time. The wildness of the setting was enchanting. Gerhard Vos was a stellar host. His knowledge of flora and fauna blew my mind. He had answers for each of my questions. It was really an incredible trip. Thank you so much!
