During my travels across Africa, I have
been fortunate to meet several legendary figures in the world of professional
hunting, including Mike Cameron, Franz Coupe, Daniel Henriott, Eric
Stockenstroom, and, last but certainly not least, Johan Calitz. I first
encountered Johan in San Francisco in the early 90s and had the opportunity to
work for him briefly in the late 90s. Almost 30 years later, our paths crossed
again, and today, I am proud to offer big game hunting in Botswana under the
guidance and expertise of Johan Calitz Safaris.
A.C Campbell writes in his General Survey on Botswana for the famous James Mellon's book African Hunter that few sportsmen or professional hunters outside Southern Africa knew much about a country as big as France and nearly as big as Texas until 1961. Word filtered through that Botswana had a profusion of wildlife unequaled almost anywhere on earth. This remains true today.
Botswana offers a truly wild and authentic hunting experience boasting game numbers that is simply astounding. The area that you will be hunting is home to the world biggest mega-herd of buffalo with numbers estimated between 4000 and 6000.
