Backcountry Hunting Podcast

Hunting Kudu, Cats, & Zulu Cattle in Africa

July 24, 2026·1h 13m
Episode Description from the Publisher

What is it about hunting Africa that sinks a hook so deep into your soul that you can never stop dreaming of going back? Smoky orange sunsets, majestic kudu bulls drifting through thornbrush, and the taste of fresh meat over Acacia-wood coals are part of it... In this episode with Austin Brown and Crusader Safari's Shawn Higgs, we swap stories and insights during the final days of a two-week adventure in Africa's Eastern Cape country. Big kudu bulls, cape buffalo, wildcats, and a charge by a wounded bull made for an exciting adventure.
