Episode 55: Insights from the Professional Hunting Industry with Pieter 'Bossie' Boschoff

[@africanbrotherssafari]

awesome one again chaps pitty i missed it. way back when the hunting industry when it started all the hunt was done in all the big government reserves. then it all changed and become a private. which is a pitty and you can see how all the reserves have detreated with out that revenue

Great interview 👌 I hunted with Bossie several years ago, a top bloke and PH. Hope I can hunt with him again in the future.

Great topic brother. Yep, not a easy task to freelance and make a living out of it hey. Been there, done that. Bossie is a legend though

One of the hardest things to do is to work as a freelancer....very few people can do it successfully, due to the unstable nature of income, well done guys for sticking to it!!!🙌🏻👍🏻 Relationships and marriage in tourism also doesn't survive, it's difficult to be away from home and think a relationship can work if you never around

Agree

[@bekkerbosbeer3453]

Maybe a great idea to do a reality series on the real life of a Ph 😁

Imagen that true conservation program.

[@bekkerbosbeer3453]

@@phjournals yes look in to putting something like that together, a real conservation documentary,what it really takes to run and manage the whole thing from marketing to conservation dealing with farmers sourcing what's needed,how it effects the community, etc

During COVID-19 the training schools for Tourists guides were still taking money and still turn out guides .... honestly they just don't care except for the money they make... quality of guides suffer because of it...

[@bekkerbosbeer3453]

Almost all the hunting vids I've seen pH an clients drive around see something, stop the vehicle, walk 200 meters and shoot a animal... supposed that's the way we hunt or taking looooong shots ,not bothering to try and get close r....but I suppose the dollar makes the rules of how we hunt with clients
