Join us, we’re stepping up another gear

5th March 2013

As the start of our season nears, with only a week to go, we’re as excited as many of you who have mailed chomping at the bit for trophy pictures and safari updates.  We’re nearly there folks – 2013 is going to be a great year.
With the recent changes in John X Safaris, we hope to take our safari enthusiasts experience to the next level. Not only do we pride ourselves on our first class hunts, with above average accommodations, food, PH’s, and trophy quality an accepted norm, we want to take the John X followers experience to the next level too. We know many would like to be on safari with us each year, but can’t for numerous reasons, you can however be on safari each month by being part of the Safari World of John X Safaris!

This means we’ve created a new format for our news updates from Africa. We will still be reporting on hunts from the field, relaying epic experiences on a monthly basis, but have added an exciting new trophy room and safari video format. This will allow our followers to receive regular updates on safaris while the season is underway.
We will also be introducing a number of guest bloggers, who will be covering a few new topics. Topics will range from safari equipment recommendations, to updates from further afield – from our partnering Mozambican concessions to our new and exciting offer in Cameroon.

Mike Currie's reports from Cameroon will not only be interesting, but helarious at times!

Mike Curries’ reports from Cameroon will not only be interesting, but hilarious at times!

For our bird hunters, you’ll be getting it straight from the Pointers mouth, our Greywing experts will be sharing a couple of interesting facts and hunting tips on these indigenous wild birds of the Eastern Cape.
For the first time ever we’ve convinced the trackers to tell their story – the art of tracking is something passed down from one generation to the next – they’re going to relay some tracking secrets and share a few epic stories of their hunting dogs, fellow trackers and PH’s. These guys are the heart and soul of any good safari outfit!

You'll be meeting Zwayi and the rest of his team.

Our taxidermy friends will be showing us how it’s done – from START to FINISH. This topic will be a must; you can’t imagine how interesting the transformation into a master piece can be.

Furthermore we’ll be keeping you posted on important news and taking a look at a number of topics you’ve heard about before, but new regained interest from many of our followers suggests they want to hear more about them.
In all we hope to provide our followers with interesting, relevant, and fun updates from Africa. Feel free to drop us a line if there may be topics of interest you’d like us to cover; we’d be more than willing to include them in our news updates.
Yours in hunting,
