The local black language in our area is Tswana. Motsomi is the Tswana word for hunter. Therefore, Africa Motsomi means African hunter.
General hunting information
Rifles and Ammunition
Only one rifle per caliber per person is allowed (eg. no two x 30-06 per person). No semi-automatics are allowed. Written proof of ownership is required (signed US Customs Form Nr. 4457).
On arrival at O.R. Tambo (Johannesburg International) Airport, your rifles and documentation will be inspected and you will be issued with a temporary import permit for the duration of your stay. The laws governing international flights demand that rifles and ammunition be transported in lockable cases.
Required caliber for plains game is in the 30-caliber class (30-06, 300, 338). 80 Rounds soft nose ammunition will be sufficient.
For Buffalo, Rhino and Elephant, a minimum caliber of 375 is required. All calibers bigger than this are welcome. 40 Rounds soft nose as well as 40 rounds solids will be sufficient.
Recommended bullets for all calibers are strong, high quality bullets like Swift A-Frame, Trophy Bonded Bear Claw or Barnes X.
Fit your rifle with a good quality scope with variable power and try to get a few practice sessions in on the range.
Hunting season
Winter time, March through to October, is our prime hunting period. Temperatures range from around 35F(2°C) early morning up to about 80F(27°C) during the day.
Clothing and equipment
Health
No vaccination is required. Although most of our concessions are situated in malaria free areas, we recommend anti-malaria prophylaxis because of the likelihood of entering malaria areas for side tours or if we are after certain animal species.
Liability
Any safari activity is potentially hazardous and it is essential that all lawful direction and advice of the Safari Operator be followed. We will take every precaution to ensure the safety of our clients, but accept no responsibility for death, injury, illness, accident, loss, theft or damage to property.
