Dangerous game hunting in Africa includes the legendary Cape buffalo.
Dangerous game hunting in South Africa is defined by close-range decision-making, strict safety standards, and disciplined shooting. Our dangerous game focus is Cape buffalo, hunted on foot with an experienced Professional Hunter. Each stalk is planned around wind direction, fresh spoor, and safe shot placement to ensure a controlled and ethical hunt.
An African safari can provide memories for a lifetime, particularly if there is dangerous game on the quota. Preparation is of the utmost importance - the right rifle, in the right caliber, and the right bullet, can make the difference between a successful hunt and a very expensive stroll through the bushveld. At the risk of sounding melodramatic, using the right rifle for dangerous game can mean the difference between life and death.
Trust your Professional Hunter's advice in this regard and then practice. Sight in on the bench and then shoot from the sticks, offhand and the various other positions you may encounter in the field. Be comfortable, thoroughly familiar, and proficient with your weapon of choice. Remember: it's where you place the shot, and not what you shoot him with, that is important! And, as one of our professional hunters is fond of saying: "Shoot straight and always use enough gun".

Buffalo are respected for their toughness, awareness, and unpredictable nature, which is why planning and professional guidance are essential.

Buffalo are the most popular and arguably also the most dangerous animal that can be hunted on a safari in Africa. These massive bovines have a reputation for doubling back once wounded, and it is very important that you are accompanied by an experienced Professional Hunter to ensure your safety when hunting Cape buffalo on foot.
