SA Hunters & Game Conservation Assoc.

Why was this association established?

At the time, game was shot on an unbridled basis, thus a hunters’ association, fully supported by authorities, was seen to be in a position to change the situation around. Over time the association obtained hunting opportunities in numerous neighboring countries for its members.
