We just wrapped up a fantastic bow hunt with some great friends and old clients Mr. Terry and Ms. Heather.... Mr. Terry came back with us this April for the #1 goal of pursuing a Cape buffalo spot & stalk with his bow. After his buffalo was in the salt, Ms. Heather got in on the action and took some exceptional animals herself! We wanted to congratulate both of our hunters and especially Mr. Terry on his fantastic Cape buffalo that offered every bit of challenge he was told to prepare for... He got his shot on Day-6 of what was a very tough and challenging hunt. Thanks to you both for letting us share your safari with Limcroma on Bowsite.

Mr. Charles just returned from his first African safari with us at Limcroma, and had a fantastic hunt all around. He, like many of our hunters, opted to do a combination of bow & rifle hunting, including lots of spot & stalking with his bow. We were more than happy to accommodate!
Mr. Charles took over 10 mature animals all of exceptional trophy quality. Here are some of his bow hunting successes including a red hartebeest taken spot & stalk which is an incredible accomplishment by any measure. Thank you Mr. Charles for letting us share your safari on Bowsite!

Here is a couple of great animals recently taken with one of our clients hunting with traditional gear. Yes, a Cape buffalo can be taken with the right traditional set-up. The PH is Nico Erasmus who is a great hunter and even better friend. Both of these animals were taken spot & stalk.

Nice trophies. I hunted with Limcroma twice and had super time. How is the political situation going to impact Hannes’ business?

Thanks for the kind endorsement Dale06,
It's business as usual for Hannes and the Limcroma team. We are having our best year ever, and lots of happy folks are coming home with fantastic trophies... We are fully booked through September and will be hunting well into October. As of right now, there is no political situation.... Only rhetoric and saber rattling. This rhetoric, specifically regarding land re-appropriation, is nothing new in RSA. It has been threatened for decades by every president since Mandela. The government hasn't cut it's own throat yet. With any 3rd world country, you can never be too certain of the future, but this particular President (Ramaphosa) came into office from the private business sector. He is heavily invested in his own economy, and would be extremely foolish to jeopardize his own position with any meaningful action against the geese laying the golden eggs.... Regardless, all of the safari operators are taking this in stride and going on about their business.
