Not what I expected.
7.0
The camp and the staff.
This buffalo hunt is very different from a bush hunt.
Hunting is not exciting.
The territory is flat with only large herbs.
You can see very far and you have to crawl.
The animals come out of the park and are not fearful (as for the zebra hunted afterwards) .
The outcome of the hunt would have been very different if the rented rifle had been a 375 instead of a 300.
It was the P.H. who killed the buffalo with his huge caliber but not me.
It's frustrating.
Maybe I should have read the announcement better.

There is a severe drought in Namibia. The area is a floodplain: normally it would be flat with tall grass but with no rain, it did not flood, and no tall grass appeared. The Caprivi is not a bushy area. Free range animals are not fearful as they don't know humans and interact with humans on a frequent basis. Non-trophy hunt was booked, best trophy quality should not be expected. Rifle was an oversight from us.

Too many things to list: truly professional service; tenacious and motivated PH(s)/outfitter; as requested, maximized field/hunting time; prime hunting locations/licenses; high quality equipment/transportation; classic lodging/meals; expectation exceeding Trophies. Chose this group due to dependable reference(s) and their broad reputation. As we all know, one gets what they pay for in this industry. You will not be disappointed with T&C.
100% pleased, no issues.

Thormahlen and Cochran has wonderful, professional and personable owners and employees. Funny and yet very serious at finding good quality game! First rate accommodations.
I highly recommend this outfitter for an African safari.
Nothing to not like.
