Our trophy hunting season in Namibia opens in February and runs through November, being 10 months long it incorporates each of the four seasons. There are no particular months when plains game hunting is necessarily better, but time constraints or personal considerations such as weather, touring, wingshooting, bow hunting or specific seasonal activities might make a certain period of time more desirable to you. Keep in mind while pondering your dates for hunting in Namibia, that seasons in Namibia, since we are in the Southern hemisphere are opposite of those in the Northern hemisphere.
With many years of experience refining their skills, our skinners working under the guidance of your Professional Hunter will ensure that each of your hunting trophies is prepared to your specifications and treated with the exacting care it deserves. Once we have completed the first preparation of your hunting trophies, as soon as possible after your hunting safari your trophies will be personally delivered to our African animal taxidermist, who will disinfect, pack and crate your hunting trophies and deliver them to the consignor / shipping agent.
Please note that you may choose to have your African taxidermy work done in Namibia, partially or fully, or you can have it sent to be done by your own taxidermist. We recommend that you bring to Namibia your taxidermist’s contact information along with their trophy tags, which your taxidermist should easily be able to supply you with. African taxidermy prices will be emailed to you on request.
While most shots are taken from within 110 yards (100 meters), they can range from close in thicker bush to relatively long distances up to 250 yards (230 meters) on open plains, so a good variable scope is suggested, you may also consider bringing a monopod or bipod. Any calibre .270 or higher may be used for most plains game hunting but we strongly recommend a .300 Magnum calibre rifle or higher. About 60 rounds of ammunition should be sufficient for a twelve-day hunt. We think it best that you bring some type of wearable rifle cartridge carrier. We recommend that clients bring their own rifle, although firearms and ammunition may be hired by prior arrangement for optimal performance, rifle sighting will be done prior to the commencement of your hunting safari.
