I’m interested in doing an Eland hunt. I’d like it to be a traditional tracking style hunt. I would appreciate some input on where the best places are to do this. If it was in an area with good bushbuck hunting that would be a bonus !

Thanks!

My elderly neighbors would like some help liquidating the husband's life long hunting experiences minus the birds and such. Here are basic pictures. Any local help would be appreciated
