Species that may be hunted include Limpopo bushbuck, Cape eland, gemsbok, kudu, nyala, sable antelope, red hartebeest, waterbuck, blue wildebeest, steenbok, bush duiker, plains zebra, giraffe, caracal, black-backed jackal, vervet monkey and chacma baboon. Tsessebe, roan, common reedbuck and buffalo may also be available. Please e-mail us for details. Prices are listed on the website http://www.matlabas.co.za. This is a bow hunting only concession, although rifles are sometimes allowed by exception if the situation or circumstances so require.
There are no licenses or permits required for plains game, but permits for roan antelope, tsessebe, small cats, monkeys and baboons need to be obtained prior to the hunt. Please advise well in advance of the hunt if any of these permits are required.
Accommodation is provided at Matlabas Game Lodge. The scrumptious meals are mostly traditional South African Bushveld cuisine and venison is regularly served. Bottled water, soft drinks (i.e. sodas), beer and table wine will be available. Please note that if any of the hunters or guests would like to have hard liquor, they should bring it along or ask us to get it for them and to add it to the final invoice. Please note also that no alcoholic beverages are allowed before the end of the day's hunting. Nor are any alcoholic beverages allowed in the bow hunting blinds.
The lodge consists of 4 thatched rooms and 2 en suite Meru type safari tents. The lodge has 220 Volt electricity, a swimming pool, a lapa where there will be a camp fire every evening, and a small curio shop. A daily cleaning service is included in the hunt. Basic toiletries and towels are provided. Laundry service is included so the hunters and non-hunters (if any) can travel lightly.
Excursions and other activities for non-hunters as well as tours and/or photographic safaris at the end of the hunting safari are also available (a safari to the Kruger National Park is very popular with visitors from abroad and can be recommended). Details will be provided on request.
This is one of South Africa's prime bow hunting destinations, but this hunt cannot be exchanged for other goods or services or alternative hunts or alternative species. This hunt is ideal for two hunting friends, or a hunting couple, who would like to experience authentic African bow hunting. Should only one hunter be able to make the trip, the free animals for the second hunter will be forfeited.
