Bowhunters will enjoy Tom Miranda’s article on the magic of hunting from a tree-stand in Africa, which puts the bush in a whole new perspective (“Silent safari”). For Bryan Betton, it was a dream come true when he hunted his first elephant in Zimbabwe. While out on that special hunt, guided by a PH to whom we entrust our lives, we do not always realise what it takes to become a PH. Johan Smit of HunTech Pro decided to find out by enrolling for the PH course with Sutherland Hunting Academy – and passed with flying colours. Well done, Johan!
