In this episode, I sit down with Joe Nowicki, U.S. rep for African Bowhunting Adventures, to break down the logistics, expectations, and economics of hunting in South Africa. Joe brings the hunter’s perspective—he’s chased elk, deer, and other big game across the U.S.—and now helps guide Americans into affordable, action-packed safaris that actually make sense.

We talk gear, planning, travel, hidden costs, bowhunting setups, species selection, trophy shipping, and what’s real versus total BS in the African hunting industry. If you’ve looked into an African hunt and thought, “Is this for real?”—this episode answers that.

Joe also covers how to avoid getting burned by shady operators, what bowhunting setups look like on the ground, and why South Africa is one of the best ways to get reps and adventure as a bowhunter—without blowing your life savings.
