Benji Boyd:Another Blaauwkrantz hog record holder!

The Panamanian Jungle Hunter, Benji Boyd, returned to Blaauwkrantz just five months after his very successful safari in April this year.In April Benji hunted no fewer than 3 bushpigs at three different baits in four evenings of ambush hunting. Benji who is a master at this type of hunting, that requires patience and stamina, saw that bushigs were something special. He immediately re-booked for September this year and wanted to complete a Blaauwkrantz Hogslam. Benji again indicated to me before his arrival that he would like to try for more than one bushpig.We were well prepared for the Jungle Man. I gave ourselves a good chance to take at least one bushpig and one warthog, but little did I expect Benji to be successful at taking THREE bushpigs and FOUR warthogs! (The one bushpig weighed just two pounds short of 200lbs of fantastic tasting wild meat)That meant that Benji completed a triple hogslam in 5 days of hunting!!

On his departure, Benji said: "I'll Be Back".....who knows what records will be broken then by this very determined hog hunter.

Thank-you for helping us provide plenty wild, free ranging and organic meat Benji!
Well-done also to Janine Joubert from iGala Productions for filming this epic hunt.(Janine is in the photo of a warthog with Benji)
