I think you should do some research regarding your "Reedbuck slam" a Grey (Vaal) Rhebuck's scientific name is Pelea capreolus and is not related to the Common Reedbuck (Redunca arundinum) and/or the Mountain Reedbuck (Redunca fulvorufula). According this information only 2/3 animals qualify as Reedbuck. Also note the following in Afrikaans (Vaalribbok, Rietbok, Rooiribbok) and English neither of the 3 have corresponding names, where one's name always differs from the other two. Please pardon my ignorance and enlighten me on your thoughts regarding this slam.

A wonderful hunt Dylan. I watched with enthusiasm the effort that you put in. I love that stuff! I hunt every week in Australia for small game mostly and I love passion it creates in me. And I can see the passion in you. I will come back to hunt in Africa again one day and perhaps we can catch up and share hunting stories and beer.

Very good content, definitely a bucket list item for me.

Awesome video boet

What is in the cup? lol Great job brother beautiful animal. Happy birthday man.

Really Enjoyed this video. Awesome stuff!!

Awesome info and definitely going to look into this more when out in the bush...

Really Good Podcast. It's crazy how there are so many parallel's between what you're going through in SA vs. what lots of hunters in the US are going through. Well thought out and executed Sir.

You shot a mother with a youngling. Come on man.

Quality content from a local... Thanks man keep pushing

We had this same conversation Saturday night. The animal hunt is one aspect but the processing afterwards is what kills it

Hi guy's as a South African hunter who has hunted for 40 plus years I've seen the changes in the hunting industry. I have never been able to afford a full on trophy hunt in my life up to now . I've seen prices escalate as the trophy hunting industry has grown in SA. I can remember when you were invited by a farmer to come on a hunt for kudu, bushbuck or wharever animals were on the farm as these animals competed with the livestock or agricultural activities on the farm . Now game has a value so prices have increased exponentially from an invite to hunt to paying for the privilege to hunt on a farm . I understand that the farmer has to make ends meet and don't expect a free meal ticket. There are non trophy animals on farms and animal numbers that need to be controlled. It's all good in years of plenty where the grazing is good and the farm can carry the larger numbers of game. Please let the local hunters hunt these animals at better rates than overseas hunters as we can also generate an income for the farmers and farmers at a cheaper rate than your trophy hunters. Accommodation doesn't need to be 5 star as we want to experience the outdoors. Simple self catering accommodation with a bed, shower and an outside braai area is sufficient for most local meat hunters. That is my 2 cents worth on the topic. Have a wonderful hunting season all hunters.

It's a strange situation for sure in SA. Just the fact that every animal has a $ value kind of sucks in a way, because it detracts from our desire and instinct to hunt animals for meat. I guess in a way we are lucky in NZ and Australia, where our deer are considered feral animals ( by the Govt) so essentially we are free to hunt on public land. We have our other issues though, like zero management, poaching and just indiscriminate unethical shooting.

I do feel for South African Hunters. In Australia wages are much higher and some laborer's or semi skilled people get $25 American equivalent an hour. So it is not so hard for overseas hunters to access some countries based on prices. Perhaps priorities should not be money driven; but meeting the needs of fellow South Africans first. Just my thoughts as an overseas hunter.

Well said 😊

Legends both.... such a lakka podcast!

well done man very nice stag there, definitly my favourite time of the year. better than christmas😂

I watch your KZbin channel as I enjoy the passion in what you do. It is great to see fellow hunters have passion, commitment and care to their profession. Great show.

🙌🙌🙌

Great stuff - you proper smacked that thing!

Great video. Incredible to experience those rut pads!

What caliber was used By Anri and what bow poundage did you use...

Beautiful area, great story and hunting video, thanks and blessings 🙌🏻

I suppose the people in charge do not have a 'hunting background'. If they are from the left of politics and want to please everybody it is very hard to do. Politics and decisions are based usually on what politicians feel is good for their political party. If more people felt that this lion hunting is viable for people then politicians would 'swing with the wind'. Everything is popular politics and not always based on evidence or rational thought. Good luck with this as if they feel this type of hunting is not advantageous; then what other animals fall under the 'left wing hammer'

You should look into jim green, a South African company that make some phenomenal boots. They have a few different boots that might suit your purposes, the african rangers, razorbacks and their vellies are only a few of the options you have. They are also fairly affordable

I’ve been trying to contact you though Uthando for a couple of days but it won’t let me message you. Is there any other way to contact you.

That was a warts and all podcast that must make you feel relieved, better and healthier. As a trained professional in the disability field I admire your sincerity and honesty. I know you personally from hunting in South Africa and you are one of the most likable people I have met in the hunting industry. I have met some 'know all's' who think other hunters know very little. Keep up the good work and one day we could hunt around together. God Bless

Cool man cool

It is about having Fun ,Conservation and Sharing the Experience

If this woman represents a large component of people who have properties to hunt on then it is not really a true representation of mainstream hunters across many countries. To have oppulant amouints]]]

Love her passion....

Congratulations, amazing that there's people that's still passionate about our history and hunting ❤❤❤

Awesome job bud another great podcast 💪🏻

Courteney boots are hard to beat , best comfort and durable, they are real quality and so so soft and comfortable . My hunter pair is now 30 years old , they are been everywhere around Africa and the rugged landscape. The main reason why they don’t last long for some blokes who use them in the harsh bush in Africa is maintenance , look after them and use proper leather wax , some blokes are just hard on any kind of bush boot or any kind of shoes . A tip for socks … wear bamboo socks , they best for hot environments , no sweat .

Awesome bud 💪🏻 great short

Great job

Hi, It is really important that you raised some issues that are in place in countries like USA and Australia. We cannot sell game meat or feral animals we harvest unless they have been inspected by a licensed meat inspector. This does not happen except in the kangaroo culling industry. I cannot see the problem with eating field dressed animals such as: rabbits, hares, ducks, geese, deer, goats, camels, and many other animals running loose and out of control in Australia. I feel USA has much the same regulations! It means that hunters of good intention are 'hamstrung' by clinical practitioners who have little understanding of all the meat that is left to rot in the scrub and grasslands. Just my thoughts. Keep up the great shows. I love your work

Hallo would love to join how do i enter im a kid and wanting to be a ph when growing up

This podcast was quite an eye opener for myself as an Australian. As a hunter on a weekly and sometimes daily basis for vermin control I do not have to fork out much income to enjoy hunting. The context I suppose is that most of our animals are vermin and free for the taking. African animals are bred to support a large industry and keep the species viable. On an interesting point for me is that some concessional hunts in Africa are not really on large properties. It does not take long to find game if on open smaller concessions. This would be of concern to some people if it was too easy to hunt animals. Anyway, just my thoughts be they good or bad. I love your stuff. Darrell.

Well said. Well hunted.

Excellent video. Beautiful footage. Could you please share what ammo/bullet grain you use in your .270? I plan on bringing mine in 2025. God bless!

Good day, maybe I am not understanding you're topic of concern of the "strawberry leopard" but from what I can understand you are saying that a strawberry leopard is a smaller species of leopard and because of this will be pressured to moving into less densely populated areas which would put them in conflict with farmers? I just want to confirm that this is what You are stating in the video? From what I understand being a qualified Fieldguide (Fgasa it is a association easily found online) which is a widely recognized association and all if not most top lodges in south africa use fgasa guides, and from all the different training providers and mentors, I have never heard of a strawberry leopard being a separate species, just a color morph just like a melanistic "black impala", I find this a very interesting topic (this is how I found this video) I would just like to know where You have sourced this information, as I am very open to learning more about it? Thank you Also the latest "strawberry leopard" that was spotted and photographed was in welgevonden game reserve in the waterberg mountains where I am currently based, Have a great day

Strawberry leopard is a very interesting subject, maybe contact cape leopard trust?? Have a chat with them for more information?

Awsome, thank you for the great videos,very informative,much appreciated,blessed holidays,🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻

Seeing as being a tourguide ive had this idea for a long time to combine cultural tourism with hunting tourism, honestly think this is the direction these industries are moving to

Awesome video, hunting industry is experiencing the same BS as normal tourism,stay safe,keep at it ,thank you for the great and informative video

I'm in the tourism industry,and it's exactly the same struggles in normal tourism... operators pay as little as possible, guests is expected to tip the guides, scales is so scewed...

So true awesome video thank you, unfortunately the greedy will always become greedier!!

We have a amazingly beautiful country ❤,great video, thanks and congratulations on a great hunt

Awesome one Dylan really enjoyed it. How can we get in contact with your buddy I’d be keen to find out more and get involved 💪🏻
