Traveling to the Hunting Concession Hunters need to fly into Victoria Falls Airport. The destination is readily accessible via a 1h45 flight from OR Tambo International in South Africa. Various regional airlines are available, such as Safair, Cemair, Airlink, and South African Airways. Mike and the team will meet you upon arrival, with a short road transfer (about 77 miles) to the hunting grounds. Zimbabwe Hunting Season
  • While Zimbabwe has no official hunting season, the peak season falls in the dry season and usually runs from around April to October
  • The cooler winter months make the safari more manageable in terms of critters and bugs
  • The vegetation and grasses are also shorter, allowing the hunter to spot and stalk his prey more easily
  • In addition to this, the animals are more likely to gather in or around water holes, increasing the opportunities for hunters to complete a successful Zimbabwean Cape buffalo hunt
Hunting Methods & Shot Placement
  • Most Zimbabwe hunts are classified as “safari style” which works well with the wild, untamed African destination
  • Members of the hunting party will set out in a canoe (called a mokoro) or a 4×4 vehicle to search for the Cape buffaloes and spoor
  • Once tracks are spotted, the tracker and team will then set off on foot, using the walk-and-stalk method
  • Ensure that your fitness levels are good, because when dangerous game hunting, you need to be prepared for anything…including long  walk-and-stalks, as well as a Cape buffalo charge (this is a very cunning and unpredictable trophy…)
  • At the end of the day, it is your shot placement that remains critical. Learn all you can about shot placement for Cape buffalo and ensure that you are familiar with and comfortable with your chosen rifle.
