Hunting is available 1 x 1 or 2 x 1 and whatever way you choose to hunt, you will have a PH, tracker, safari vehicle, and support staff available at all times.
Your bow hunt will be catered to your preferred methods of hunting and physical abilities. A typical method of plains game bow hunting will consist of hunting out of a mixture of elevated and pit blinds that are strategically located on water holes and/or feeding areas.

This is first-class hunting for excellent quality trophies in areas that are not over-hunted.

Testimonials
"I looked long and far for a good deal on a lioness hunt. By far, Discount African Hunts had the best price. I had the hunt of a lifetime and took a beautiful lioness at close range with my bow. The Professional Hunter was first class, the lodge was first class and my whole experience was unbelievable. I will book with John Martins when I return to Africa to hunt leopard in Zimbabwe.

"I had the hunting experience of a lifetime. And I have a real need to go back. I made many new friends from South Africa, Australia and the USA.
I strongly recommend both Discount African Hunts and this outfitter. John Martins set me up with a great outfitter, answered all my questions and made sure I had all my paperwork in order A to Z."
