Just something I want to share with you guys.. from around 17h30 everyday at Malta you start hearing the lions. About 10km from Malta there is a lion farm. It sounds really cool. Its cold there in the evenings, but a glass or 2 of old brown sherry with a big fire and the cold is a thing of the past...

Hi, this price is not cast in stone, but it seems to work out something like this.

 

If you and a mate or the gf/wife comes for 4 nights at the game farm without the fishing part, it should be roughly about 800 pounds ea.

 

Then nothing changes on the list besides the fact that you wont go fishing.

 

Hope its in line.

Hi there Rog,

 

Have just read the post buddy and the whole thing sounds fantastic to me pal.

 

All that for roughly that price is a real life time experience in my eyes and something that must not be missed.

 

Please book me and Laura a place for June time mate. We would also like to do the fishing if that’s what the group is happy with pal as I love fishing and as a hobby is only beaten by shooting in my eyes.

 

Just a quick question pal, would a sub 12 FP air rifle be ok in Africa to shoot the Guinea fowl, pheasants and meer kats?

 

I could probably manage to get one of my springers over like my Pro Sport but only if it will kill a meer kat, and the other quarry species humanely etc as I know over there you use FAC air rifles for hunting.

 

If not then could we lend one of yours please buddy?

 

Kind regards

Hi Si,

 

yes sub 12fpe will be ok. You will be limited to about 35yards and on Guinea fowl (big bird) about 25yards. But for meerkat, feasants & pigeons it will work. My rifles will all be there and can be used freely. No problem.

 

The fishing can be done, with pleasure. I love it as well. I am busy looking at a flight from Jhb -> Vryburg (about 40min drive from malta) VS driving and collection you guys. Cost wise it might even break even and save 3 hours on travelling. More time for hunting!!

 

But I will get back to you on that.

 

I will have 2x cylinders available. A 10L 210bar and a 15L 232bar. I always have loads and loads of pellets. I dont even think you should bother with bringing pellets. If you need anything specific, I will get it here.

 

Thanks for the feedback.

 

Roger!

These where shot with a FAC .20 on a farm by my friend Tinus Henning.

 

The porcupines where shot at night, head shots.

 

The Jackal was shot early morning, side body shot (hit vital organs)

this sounds like a good deal/package to me. if i had the cash i would be comming for sure.

with regards the fishing. what kinds of fish and to what size would be realistict to catch. if i was going all that way i would really like to catch something we cant catch in the uk as well as any we have here. some of the shooting quary look interesting.

please keep us posted as to how this goes!!
