With mid-March to the early stages of April falling over the spring break period for the majority of the US, it has become somewhat of a tradition hosting families on safari over this period each season for family hunt. It’s not only an exciting time of the year as the younger generation steps up to the rifle, but a fun part of our season as the focus is very much on the youngsters and the time spent in the field together on safari. The family bonding that takes place away from the rush of everyday life and the cellular world kids live in cannot be compared to anything else out there.
Toby, Tammy, Vivian and Simon Risko not only experienced the adventures associated with a hunt but made a few new friends along the way too. Enjoy this families safari with them, it would be great to see the look of fondness of the memories they will look back on some years down the line.

I have to say that the PH here is absolutely top notch. Sharing some really sound knowledge about the animal being hunted in addition to hunting technique. Tobie, respect to you for handing the rifle to the PH on the Nyala. Your and your children’s shooting was great to see. All round great video of what seemed like an awesome hunt.

Sticks, again, I tip my hat to you. You are magic with the children. I'm not a parent, but I imagine that quality is priceless to them, Sir.

I concur with all the people commending the PH for the job he did with the young man. From everything I've read and heard about the professionalism of John X Safaris PHs, I am very much looking forward to a similar experience when I go on my first safari, in March.

I can honestly say out on the 1000's of hunting videos I have watched on KZfaq this is hands down the greatest video. Well done for affording those kids the opportunity of a lifetime.

Great video, a father has given his kids a memory of a lifetime in Africa, good patient hunter and knows when to let the PH take over, we know many a Buffalo hunt gone wrong without listening to the PH, well done 👍🏽

I waited all winter for a new episode and you did not disappoint. Going after my kudu in Dec and I'd be thrilled to tears to bag one like Toby's

Bravo ! Wonderful safari, awesome family vacation and bonding. The PH was a true professional in every sense of the word. * Not a criticism, but on your return trip (and I'm sure that there will be), please show the lodge you stayed at. John X has three spectacular lodges, but I'm sure the audience would be taken by the amenities. * For those who've never been, a couple of my favorite quotes: Ernest Hemingway, "I never knew of a morning in Africa when I woke up that I was not happy " and "The only man I envy is man who's not yet been to Africa, for he has so much to look forward to".

Stix! All round best PH around, hunted with him years ago, So much patience. 1 thing i did notice, you should really teach the youngsters to wait until the PH tells him to shoot. Twice Stix is still busy talking and the little dude shoots and having to take unnecessary 2nd shots\

Are these animals in high fence? The PH is pro. If I see this guide in thumbnail, I press.

@JohnXSafarisExperience 3 жыл бұрын

We hunt a combination of large high fences properties in excess of 20 000 acres and free ranging areas.
