This safari combines four species that perfectly showcase what plains game hunting in Namibia is all about, varied terrain, rewarding stalks, and memorable trophies.
Oryx (Gemsbok) Hunts
Few trophies are more closely associated with Namibia than the Gemsbok, also known as Oryx. Tough, resilient, and perfectly adapted to harsh desert conditions, oryx hunts often involve patient glassing and carefully planned stalks across open country. For many hunters, this striking antelope represents the ultimate Namibian trophy.
Hartmann’s Zebra Hunts
Alert, sharp-eyed, and often found in rougher terrain, Hartmann’s Zebra provide an exciting challenge. Successful zebra hunts frequently reward patience, careful movement, and precise shot placement.
Springbok Hunts
Springbok remain one of Africa’s most iconic antelope species. Sharp eyesight and open-country habitat make springbok hunts particularly rewarding for hunters who enjoy careful stalks and occasional longer shooting opportunities.
Grey Duiker Hunts
Small in size but certainly not in challenge, Grey Duiker are quick, alert, and often encountered unexpectedly in thicker cover. Successful duiker hunts require patience, sharp reactions, and good field awareness.
Hunters looking to expand their safari can easily add additional species through trophy fees, including kudu hunts, giraffe, caracal hunting, and jackal hunting opportunities.
For many international hunters, this is the ideal African hunting safari, enough time in the field to pursue multiple species, varied terrain to keep hunting exciting, and the flexibility to customise the experience without the cost or time commitment of a much longer hunt.
Unlike highly intensive trophy packages, this safari provides a more rewarding pace while still delivering excellent opportunities on quality game.
For first-time African hunters, it offers an accessible introduction to Africa. For returning hunters, it provides the opportunity to add sought-after trophies while enjoying authentic Namibian hunting conditions.
Situated in central Namibia, the Khomas region is widely regarded as one of the country’s premier hunting destinations. The landscape combines rocky mountains, broken bushveld, wild valleys, and open plains, ideal habitat for species such as oryx, zebra, springbok, kudu, and duiker.
Importantly, this is fair chase hunting across a vast 100,000-acre ranch without high fences. Hunters should expect active spot-and-stalk hunting rather than simply waiting for opportunities to appear. Hunters familiar with North American deer hunting are often surprised by how alert and resilient African plains game can be. Good shot placement, patience, and working closely with your Professional Hunter all contribute to success.
Days typically begin before sunrise with coffee around the fire before heading into the hunting area. Depending on the target species, the morning may involve glassing distant hillsides for oryx, tracking zebra through broken terrain, or working slowly through thicker cover in search of grey duiker.
Much of the hunting is conducted on foot. Hunters can expect to spend time glassing, planning stalks, and using the terrain to close distance on wary game. Conditions vary considerably between species, which is one of the reasons this package remains so enjoyable. A morning pursuing springbok across open plains can feel completely different from an afternoon stalking oryx through rocky hills or searching for duiker in thicker cover.
Midday is often spent returning to camp for lunch and a short break before heading back into the field during the cooler afternoon hours. The Khomas region's varied terrain and healthy game populations ensure that every outing offers fresh opportunities and new challenges.
Evenings are typically spent around the fire sharing stories from the day's hunt, enjoying good food, and planning the next morning's strategy. While no two safaris are ever identical, the combination of classic Namibian species, fair chase hunting, and vast open country creates the type of hunting experience that keeps sportsmen returning to Namibia year after year.
Not all hunting safaris in Namibia are created equal. Jaco and his experienced team welcome both novice and experienced hunters to enjoy authentic hunting in one of Namibia’s best-known hunting regions. The family-owned ranch supports more than 20 huntable species, including plains game, predators, birds, and leopard, while the sheer scale of the property creates a genuinely wild hunting experience.
Bow hunters are particularly well catered for. In addition to being an experienced Professional Hunter, Jaco became Namibia’s National Archery Champion in 2002 and represented Namibia at the World Archery Championships in the USA in 2025, making this an excellent option for hunters interested in bow hunting in Namibia.
For hunters seeking authentic fair chase hunting rather than simply the cheapest advertised safari, this package offers experienced guiding, rewarding hunting conditions, and exceptional value.
One of the most common questions hunters ask before travelling to Africa is: What rifle should I bring?
Popular and proven calibres for plains game hunting in Namibia include the .300 Winchester Magnum, .30-06 Springfield, .308 Winchester, and 7mm Remington Magnum, all of which perform exceptionally well on species such as oryx, zebra, springbok, kudu, and wildebeest.
Premium expanding ammunition and proper shot placement for hunting game in Africa matter far more than excessive calibre. Understanding where to place your shot on different species is one of the most important factors in ensuring a quick, ethical harvest, and your Professional Hunter will gladly assist with suitable shooting opportunities in the field.
Hunters travelling without firearms can make use of outfitter rental rifles.
This safari is ideal for:
Hunters specifically seeking dangerous game, very high-volume shooting, or highly specialised mountain hunting may be better suited to a longer or more specialised safari package.
International hunters will fly into Hosea Kutako International Airport (WDH) in Windhoek, Namibia.
Popular travel routes from the United States typically include:
Hunters travelling with rifles often prefer routing through Johannesburg using Airlink, which has extensive experience handling hunting firearms.
Upon arrival in Windhoek, hunters are met by Jaco or a member of his team for a meet-and-greet, assistance with firearm permits if required, and the approximately 2-hour road transfer to camp. Namibia also offers one of Africa’s simplest temporary firearm import procedures, with permits generally issued on arrival at no additional cost.
Namibia’s hunting season runs from 1 February to 30 November, with hunting permitted from half an hour before sunrise until half an hour after sunset.
The cooler months between April and August are generally regarded as some of the best times for plains game hunting in Namibia, offering comfortable temperatures and productive hunting conditions.
Not every hunter visiting Africa is looking for a three-week safari or a long list of trophy animals. Many simply want an authentic hunting experience, quality game, and enough time in the field to enjoy what makes Africa special.
This hunt delivers exactly that. Four classic Namibian species, fair chase hunting across a vast property, experienced professional guidance, and comfortable accommodation combine to create a safari that appeals to both first-time and returning hunters.
For newcomers, it provides an accessible introduction to African hunting without requiring a lengthy time commitment. For experienced hunters, it offers the opportunity to add iconic Namibian trophies while enjoying some of the country's most respected hunting country.
If your goal is to experience genuine plains game hunting in Namibia while enjoying excellent value and a relaxed safari pace, this hunt deserves serious consideration.
