If you want to hunt a world-class free-range Southern Greater Kudu, Kowas Hunting Safaris (pronounced “Kohvahs”) is the best there is. Their area is comprised of 420,000 acres of mountainous kudu habitat populated with some of the best genetics in all of Africa. This region on the edge of the Kalahari desert is truly the promised land for Kudu. The operation is family owned and run by the Strauss’s, who are known for leadership in conservation and for being part kudu themselves. No man alive is better at finding and effectively hunting monster bulls than Jacques Strauss, who heads up Kowas. Note: The giant kudu bull in this section header was shot by Adam Weatherby while hunting with Kowas. Jacques is also an ice-cold, unerring shot in the face of a Cape buffalo charge. Ask us how we know.
