Kudu hunting v Elk hunting - comparisons?
Whilst I have never hunted either species I certainly hope to do so one day.
From what research I’ve done, I believe it’s considerably cheaper to hunt a trophy kudu than it is to do a guided trophy elk hunt in the US as a non-resident. (I’m from the UK)
But my first question is for those on this forum who have hunted both of these species. how does the actual hunt compare?
My second question is that if money was no issue would you rather have a life hunting elk or kudu?
From my...

Who wears shorts on Safari?
So I’m heading back to the Eastern Cape next week for my 2nd safari. On my first trip there in 2024 the weather was cool so I only wore shorts 1 day.
Looking at the upcoming weather it looks to be in the mid to upper 70’s.
My only real concern with shorts other than scratches from thorns are ticks.
I’m torn between lightweight hunting pants and throwing in shorts some days. Thoughts ? Thanks.
