PUBLIC SHOOTS/HUNTS

Shoot:  A superb opportunity to hunt the fastest game birds in the world testing your skills.

Hunting, early morning, we target sand grouse as they flight around and into water holes, followed by two or three walked up drives for yellow necks and Francolin. Returning to camp for brunch and afternoon of leisure, as the heat subsides we will have drives targeting Guinea fowl, and Yellow necks, which congregate along the dried up wadis, return to camp for shower and then drinks by the fire before a three-course dinner with wine.

Overnight tented accommodation at Kiboko, this is a snap shot of a typical days hunt, but there are a variety of different offerings each day keeping you on your toes and developing your skills.
