While the waterfowl and gamebird species listing is impressive, the diversity of shooting scenarios presented by hunting them is equally impressive. Egyptian and spur-winged geese present exhilarating pass shooting as they fly between pre-scouted reservoirs and feeding areas. Ducks are hunted over decoys or by spot-and-stalk methods as necessary to ensure certain species. Francolin and are hunted over staunchly-pointing German shorthairs that know their business, surely some of the most formidable do power on the African continent. Doves and pigeons provide fast-paced shooting as they dart into grain fields in impressive number. With knowledge of the terrain and bird habits, field-staff ensure that driven guineafowl shoots easily rank high on clients fun list–they’re faster than they look!

Experience an authentic taste of South Africa wingshooting, a refreshingly new shotgunning destination.  “I personally believe that this GetDucks South Africa duck hunting combo adventure represents one of the top 3-4 wingshooting destinations in the world. It’s right up there with Mexico and Argentina in terms of volume, but duck species and gamebird diversity is high plus you can get your trophy birds back to US taxidermists. It’s the perfect South Africa duck hunt,” says Ramsey Russell.

Field Report

As stated by a long-time revisiting guest, “Africa duck hunting is must-do for any serious shotgunner. For the money, the volume may be a little lower (than Argentina hunts), but waterfowl hunting in Africa is a high-quality experience, that presents more diverse and challenging shooting, and best of all – you’re in AFRICA!”

South Africa duck hunting combo was phenomenal

Wanted to let you know we had a great time hunting waterfowl in South Africa. All of you are very professional and truly great people. Could not have asked for a better South Africa duck hunting combo experience. The hunting was phenomenal and your company was even better. I plan on hunting again with you guys in the future. We are having a great time plains game hunting but I just wanted to reach out to you and let all you know we had a spectacular time. Best wishes for continued success. Cheers.

South Africa duck hunting…easily described as a “trip of a lifetime” but I don’t think that it was our only visit!

A couple of years ago, my wife took me on a waterfowling trip to Alaska for my 50th birthday, so I was under considerable pressure when hers came around.  South Africa duck hunting could not have been a better choice.  We spent an enchanted week with gracious hosts at their beautiful lodge.  South Africa is a beautiful and interesting country with an abundance of wildlife and a spellbinding history.  And the wingshooting?  I must say that I have never seen a greater variety of opportunities anywhere.   A typical day might involve an early hunt for Egyptian and spurwing geese, a mid-morning hunt for driven guineafowl and francolin, a break for lunch and an afternoon shoot for hot-gun doves or pigeons.  I can easily describe this experience as a “trip of a lifetime” but I don’t think that it was our first and only visit!
