Greatest Africa Hunt Ever!

PH Wessel delivered on all sides. This was the best hunt ive had in Africa, Though the hunting was difficult, he led us though dried up creeks, through the bush, stalking, crawling, hiding, coming in on the animals from 300 m – 70 meters. This was real hunting, reminding me of propper reindeer hunting in Norway. It should not be easy or else it is not hunting, but Wessel pulled though time and time again. Loved it. I want to go back.

A Life-Changing Safari Experience with Wessel!

My husband and I went to Africa for the first time and Wessel was my professional hunting guide. When I first met Wessel, I connected with him immediately as if he were my son. Greeted at our camp with wine, dinner, and gifts made us feel so welcome. Wessel is an amazing chef, friend, and PH. His knowledge of hunting and fearlessness of any animal made me feel safe and confident. Wessel, with much patience, helped keep me calm as he kept focusing on the herd and my first trophy gemsbok amongst other animals I wanted to take back to the US. I can’t say enough about Wessel as a PH and a friend to this day. I can’t wait to go back to Africa or anywhere and hunt with him again.
