Tornado Ridge Outdoors — South African safari

What we actually sell

Not a package. A list you write.

The combinations are, for practical purposes, unlimited. Impala and a warthog. Kudu, gemsbok, and a zebra. Springbok in three colors. We quote the animals you name, then hunt that list with a licensed South African professional hunter on private land in Limpopo. The stalk is his. The bill is arithmetic.

The classic

Spiral horn and grey ghost

Kudu is the animal most first-time hunters put on the list. He is not bundled into a package. If he is the priority, give him the days.

The open country

Gemsbok, wildebeest, hartebeest

Long shots and honest walking. These are the animals that teach African distance, wind, and why a .300 Winchester Magnum earns its keep.

The camp

Lodge days, not a survival drill

Meals, a bed, laundry, and a fire after dark. Observers are welcome. This is a hunt, not a forced march.

Who it is for

Hunters who want the bushveld, not a menu.

Most trips run seven to ten days, with three to five animals the client actually wants. A rifle you already trust is better than one hired in camp. Observers are welcome.

About a month before you fly, we meet in person on a Saturday or Sunday. Paperwork, a chance to shoot if you need it, lunch, questions, and a look at who else is going. That meeting is included. No extra fee.

Start with the list

Tell us the animals and the month.

Name the species, the number of days, and whether you are bringing a rifle. A $500 deposit locks the current pricing. We need the final trophy list a few weeks before the trip so any required permits can be pulled. Sample trophy fees on this site are planning figures until that quote is written.
