To Potential African Days  (Namibia) Clients

We just returned (September, 2004) from an outstanding plains game safari with African Days  (Namibia) in Namibia, Africa. The 10 day hunt was outstanding, taking a gold medal Eland, two gold medal Springbok, a new SCI #4 Blesbok, an outstanding Hartmann Zebra and a large male Ostrich. The Cape Eland was taken after a long stalk and great positioning by the PH.

Pieter Stofberg (owner), the PH Etienne Langeveldt and the trackers were all outstanding in every respect. The skill the PH and trackers exhibited during our safari still amazes me. Tracking the bull Eland when he separated from the herd on hard ground is truly a lost skill and we witnessed the best.

The entire African  Days staff treats you like one of the family and is only matched by the quality of the accommodations. The accommodations are truly outstanding and 4 star. A wake up call with coffee each morning starts the day off with resounding energy. I have hunted around the world and this is one of the best organizations. Our meeting place each day after the hunt was first at the bar to swap " stories" and enjoyed new friends and then to the campfire for more intense discussion.

The staff works very hard to position you for success with your selected trophies, and will go to any reasonable end to ensure success. The option to change camps for selected trophies, in my mind, is outstanding. This surely ups your odds for top rate trophies in varying species.

Many trophies were sighted during the Safari and many species were available to us as we focused on truly trophy animals in our quest. The equipment was in very good repair and never let us down. The handling of your trophies is first rate. They even have a selected high security room for salting, brine bath and trophy management.

I highly recommend African Daysas an outstanding Safari company as you try to make decisions about who to hunt with in Africa. We made life-long friends during our visit and definitely plan to return to visit with old friends and once again view the fire-red sunset over the beautiful Namibian landscape.
