Embarking on a journey with Avula Safaris isn’t just about hunting – it’s about crafting unforgettable memories, fulfilling lifelong dreams, and immersing yourself in the wild beauty of Africa. David and Ridge’s personalised experience with Avula Safaris is a testament to the adventure, excitement, and camaraderie that define our safaris.
Their journey began with meticulous planning and anticipation, culminating in an epic adventure spanning almost 3000 miles. From the Eastern Cape Mountains to the dense Waterberg Mountains, every moment was filled with excitement and anticipation.
David’s long-awaited moment finally arrived as he fulfilled his five-year planning with PH Chris. Waiting in ambush, hearts pounding, adrenaline rushing – the perfect shot, and the bull slumped down on the spot. It was an extraordinary hunt, a phenomenal safari, and a dream come true for David.
But the adventure didn’t stop there. From the majestic 53” Sable to the elusive Bush Pig, Avula Safaris provided unforgettable moments at every turn. Night hunting brought its own thrills, with fruitful encounters and successful harvests under the cover of darkness.
He bought a 470 Nitro express, Krieghoff double rifle, specifically for his Africa trip. His dream was always to shoot a Cape Buffalo with a double rifle. He shot a magnificent 48” Buffalo on this trip.
The journey continued to Avula Sands, where David and Ridge embarked on a lion and lioness hunt. With smiles that spoke volumes and trophies that spoke of a lifelong dream fulfilled, it was a momentous occasion made possible by Avula Safaris’ expert guidance and support.
As they journeyed through the sandy terrain of the Kalahari, near the Botswana border, new memories were made, and new adventures awaited. From the thrill of the hunt to the bonds forged in the wilderness, Avula Safaris provided an experience unlike any other.
For David and Ridge, their chapter with Avula Safaris may have come to a close for now, but the memories they’ve created will last a lifetime. Until next time, safe travels, gents, and here’s to the next great adventure in the heart of Africa!
