The area you will be hunting is  situated about a 45 minute drive from Windhoek International Airport.

The land covers an area of approx. 80 square miles and is populated by an abundance of game. The terrain consists of small rocky hills with huge savannas and patches of bushy areas. The entire hunting area is natural, with open water holes and very few man-made improvements and is still the real Africa. Additional concession areas are available when required, most bordering on their own property. This increases the hunting area to an unlimited movement area in excess of 40,000 hectare (over 150 square miles).

All hunts are spot and stalk in the classic safari hunting style.  Your day might begin stalking from the lodge on foot or searching via safari vehicle until your trophy is spotted and then planning your stalk from the vehicle.  Absolutely no hunting is from the vehicle.  Your hunting professional will carry shooting sticks and when your trophy is spotted and the stalk is complete, he will set the sticks up for your shooting rest.  From there, your preparation before the trip is key!  It is up to you to make the shot.  An amazing tracker will be with you.  It is a treat to watch them at work.  If you are looking for a classic hunting safari, this is it.  Their reputation is the finest in Namibia.

Your group may visit the local school of 330 children.  Your hunting meat is the sole source of protein for the school children.

Trophy quality is consistently outstanding due to the decision to go for exclusivity rather than to commercialize. Records show that 92% of trophies taken over the past 27 years qualify for the top half of the SCI Record Book. On average, hunting clients take one trophy per day, but no limit is placed on the number of species that you may take during a specific safari period. Short safaris are, however, not recommended as much of the pleasure of hunting, as well as appreciation of the environment, is lost during a high pressure safari.

No need to travel with your guns as they have a wonderful assortment of high end rifles and shotguns.  If you prefer your own guns, then of course, you may travel with them.

Bow Hunting:

Should you wish to bow hunt,  you will have your own specialized bow hunting PH. This is an exceptional opportunity.  All hunts are spot and stalk only.  This is a target rich environment!  Your days will be filled with adventure on this gorgeous 50,000 acre property.  You will not spend your trip sitting at a watering hole.  You will experience all that Africa has to offer on the ground.

On our recent bow hunting trip to this lodge, we were able to take four trophy animals in three days of spot and stalk hunting.  We had an opportunity at another six trophies during those same hunting days but chose not to take the shots because we already had exceptional trophies in our trophy room.  So in a four day hunt, one hunter had ten opportunities within 50 yards to harvest trophies.  A number were within 30-40 yards as well.

A spot and stalk hunt in Africa is authentic and exciting!  There are few properties in Africa where this is a realistic possibility…this is one of them.  We recommend this type of bow hunt to experienced bow hunters that have enjoyed success with spot and stalk bow hunts at other venues.

The lake lodge is run in the classic, elegant style of traditional safari camps.   The lodge is made of natural stone with thatched roofs, designed by the owner to blend in with the surrounding rocky kopjes and vast savannahs.

The lodge offers guest suites with en-suite bathrooms with basins, flushing toilets and large showers with high pressured hot and cold running water. The extra length beds are solid wood with thick, firm mattresses, down duvets and pillows. Bedside tables, reading lamps, a luggage rack, rifle cabinet, large wardrobe, comfortable chairs, a desk, ceiling fan, balcony furniture complete the elegant, distinctly safari style rooms.  The lodge has three bedrooms.

Relax by the lake in deck chairs overlooking the lake water hole filled with game. Evening sundowners are served by the fire pit next to the lake.

The hunting day usually starts just before sunrise with a choice of beverages served in your suite by a friendly camp attendant, followed by a hearty breakfast.

Dining:

They offer delicious local cuisine inspired by the owner, and expertly prepared by a Gourmet Chef and the small, dedicated kitchen team. Venison from the hunt is always served accompanied by a wide variety of organically grown salads, fruit, vegetables and herbs from the gardens. Fresh baked bread, biscuits and treats are baked daily in the old fashioned wood-burning oven.  Non-venison as well as vegetarian meals are prepared, with pleasure, on request.

Guests return to camp during the heat of midday for a buffet-style lunch, which is served on the porch overlooking the lake.  A short siesta is followed by coffee at 15h00 before returning to the wild open veld.

Sundowners are served in the evening around the open fire pit. This is historically the time of day when the best memories of wilderness experiences, as well as hunting and fishing tales, are exchanged in the romantic flow of the Acacia wood flames.  A traditional drumbeat announces dinner, which is always a candle-lit three-course gourmet feast.

Top quality South African Wines, international brands of whiskey, gin, vodka and world-class Namibian beer as well as a variety of soft drinks and pure fruit juices are available in camp. Clients are encouraged to notify the team of any specific wishes, which will gladly be catered for.

10 day safari’s are encouraged in order to take in the full beauty of this country.  However, seven day safari’s are accepted.  All itineraries are customized for your group.

Your final destination is Windhoek, Namibia where you will be personally greeted by your professional hunter for the road transfer 45 minutes to the lodge.

Antlers and Anglers will assist you with flight coordination whether you book flights yourself or choose to use our Africa flight specialist.

This outfitter is the sole source of protein for extremely impoverished school nearby with about 330 children!  The protein from your hunt provides the meat for the children.  The school is extremely well run and provides an excellent education for the children under the careful eye of an experienced educator.

Should you wish to visit the school, the principal is happy to accommodate visitors as long as the visit does not interrupt the school day.  Supplies are always in need at the school.  For ease and travel simplicity, the safari owner recommends that supplies be purchased in the Windhoek on arrival and then delivered by guests directly to the school.  Many guests list this as a highlight of their safari.

If you would like to interact with the children in an even deeper way, the school welcomes any activities that you would like to initiate.

If you would like to make a difference while on your hunting vacation, this outfitter is grateful for any help that you would like to offer to the school but there is absolutely no pressure to do so.

In 2018, the conservationist hunting community is joining together to further provide nurture, housing and sustenance for these vulnerable children in this community.  A boarding school has been built with excellent clean facilities and now only needs the support of the hunting community to provide the funding for children to fill these homes.
