TAKE AIM SAFARIS is owned and operated by Carl Knight who is a specialist Southern African big game Hunting Outfitter, Hunting Agent and Professional Hunter. I live in Johannesburg South Africa and have done so almost all my life. I have hunted South Africa and Zimbabwe extensively over the last 38 years as I write this in February 2021 I am 47 years of age.
Take Aim Safaris is a safari industry market leader with a track record that spans over 13 years of full time work in the hunting industry having booked and/or conducted over 500 big game hunts to date. To see the photos from these hunts please visit the big game gallery our website by selecting that from the tabs above.
Here is my brief overview of each country that we offer hunts in, for more detailed information about the individual concessions we offer please follow the relevant tabs above.
ZIMBABWE: Can only be described as the best hunting destination in Africa of that fact there is no doubt in my mind having personally hunted every African county open to hunting including and south of Tanzania. Zimbabwe remains the #1 hunting destination offer we have for our clients. Zimbabwe offers only free range fair chase hunting with no fences at all in any of our offered concession areas. The areas we offer are concession areas that are directly adjoined, open and unfenced to National Parks that serve as feeder Parks to the hunting areas. These hunting areas are owned by either the Zimbabwean Government or local Communities that lease the land to the local Operators whom we represent. We are not a South African hunting company operating in Zimbabwe, we are specialist/veteran hunting agents that books hunts for Zimbabwean Professional Hunters and Zimbabwean Operator companies.
My relations in Zimbabwe have grown immensely over the years to include my sister company relations with Nixon Dzingai www.ssgsafaris.com
Our Zimbabwe concessions are fantastic for all big game, these are serious hunter hunts in big game country.
SOUTH AFRICA: I grew up hunting in South Africa and Zimbabwe, I live in Johannesburg with my wife and kids, I find that being located in Johannesburg works well for me as clients hunting in South Africa or Zimbabwe mostly land in Johannesburg where we clear rifles and luggage for our clients before they continue onto their final hunting destination.
There are very good hunting opportunities in RSA that has always been a market leader as far as Southern African hunting is concerned. If you would like a hunt in a 4 or 5 star luxury lodge with high end amenities then RSA is the place for you, if you are of limited mobility then RSA is the place for you, RSA would also be ideal for family hunting holidays.
SUMMARY: We are 100% committed to offering our clients from all over the world bookings into amongst the top Zimbabwean and South African hunting concessions available in today’s Africa based on the strength of the area for the species that the client wishes to hunt, for instance some areas are better for Elephant than others same goes for Lion, Buffalo and Leopard etc.
We have top concessions available to hunt top quality adult bulls on a fair chase basis. Our hunt prices are the best that the industry has to offer in top concessions, we don’t offer marginal areas or bad hunts, our hunts are all well researched and hunted by us in person long before we offer the hunts to our clients, well-priced top quality hunts is what we do. You will be hunting top concessions with the best PH’s when you book with Take Aim Safaris or SSG Safaris.
We only book hunts in conjunction with licensed and registered Safari Outfitters and Professional Hunters. We are licenced Safari Outfitters and Professional Hunters as well as being specialist big game Booking Agents, on this basis we know exactly what is required to make your safari a successful one. Carl has personally hunted the big 5 and dangerous 7 as a client, most of the species in these groups a few times over not to mention guiding them many more times over, we know very well what you expect from your hunt and your PH.
