The WJVS team had great pleasure in welcoming 2 families of bow hunters from Mexico to our exclusive bow hunting camp Linksfontein. Patricio SadaMuguerza, wife Karla, daughters Valeria, Karla and son Pato were accompanied by Jose Kaun Nader, wife Regina, son Jose Jnr and daughter Regina. Being experienced bow hunters and seasoned travelers to Africa, it was indeed an honor to welcome our clients on this their first safari with Wintershoek Johnny Vivier Safaris. The hunt spanned over a 10 day period for the men, whilst the ladies toured around South Africa for some of the time. Pro Hunters Flip Coetzee , John Tinley and Nihan Engelbrecht, were on hand to take care of the group. Some superb hunting, coupled with excellent trophy quality and amazing shot placements, was had by each hunter. Feast your eyes on the array of species and action shots keeping in mind that most animals were taken by bow! An unbelievable achievement and extraordinary display of bowman ship coming from the hunters … Amazing!! We most certainly look forward to once again hosting our bow friends on another safari in the not too distant future …. See you all in Reno!!

This dramatic frame stop on Patricio’s Buffalo will show you the exact impact of the arrow taking the top of the heart out …. Wow! this is awesome.

Amazingly, the Springbok captured in this frame hasn’t even reacted yet to the bow shot from Patricio; I bet the next frame would reveal a different story …….

Once again the silent and deadly arrow released by Patricio finds it’s mark in the lungs … done deal.
