We focus on assisting underprivileged children with anything they need to participate in sport, e.g. Rugby boots, soccer balls, etc. as well as donating stationery to schools in Lulekani, outside Phalaborwa. With few opportunities for the youth and so instead of getting into drugs and alcohol, we decided to do a sort of summer school for kids...today our 1st member, 14 years old went to our farm in Vaalwater to do his part...what a lovely young man. It is all about giving our youth HOPE!!!

First Class!

9.7 of 10

Keeping it fairly short here. This is a great hunt. I’ve been to SA a few times before and this was one of the better trip’s I’ve been on. The Buffalo hunt is an absolute kick. If you want to drive around and shoot a Buffalo from the land cruiser this is probably not the hunt for you. This is a tent camp, find tracks, boots on the ground hunt with multiple close encounters and blown stalks to be had. Some up days and some down but that’s what hunting is supposed to be. It’s easy to forget what a real hunt is like depending on who you hunt with and where. Theron has a great staff and likely the most genuine, kind and respectful family I’ve had the honer of getting to know. We will be making plans for round two very soon. Thank you Gerri, Corne & family for everything!

Best adventure in Africa!!!

10.0 of 10

Everything was exceptional! This was my fourth time hunting in Africa and by far my best adventure!!! Gerrie and his son Kyle were great PHs. They were very knowledgeable, insightful and just great guys to hang out with. Their staff was exceptional from the other guides to the trackers, driver, chef etc. The facilities and equipment were all top-notch. And the wildlife was phenomenal! Everything I shot there far exceeded my hopes and expectations!

My daughter wasn't there to share experience with me.
