Blaauwkrantz Bushpig update

2015 got off to a sqealing start with no fewer than six trophy bushpigs successfully harvested already.What makes this achievement even more remarkable is that this is a 100% success rate with all hunting clients that set out for these elusive creatures taking them. Early Janauary I guided Mr Christopher Sundtman on a short four day hunt and bushpig was on his list,he not only got his pig but several other impressive trohies too. In march we had Mr Benyi Boyd and his family from Panama here,his son Ben shot a bushpig and Benyi himself hunting two on this trip.In 2011 Benyi visited us twice and shot 6 bushpigs on those two safaris.Benyi Is the official Blaauwkrantz Bushpig King with now fewer than 8 of these anaimals under his belt. Congratulations Benyi! In early April Mr Dennis Hilling from Canada made an excellent shot in the waxing moon to shoot a very large bushpig.The sow weighed 185 lbs! I also managed to shoot a goat killing bushpig that was causing some problems amongst our domestic goats at a certain place.Bushpigs can be very destructive if they want to!Yet experience has taught me to effectively target these individuals.
The season has just begun in earnst, so hopefully there will more updates on bushpig hunting to follow! Good hunting.
