In 1992, with over twelve years outfitting and professional hunting experience with foreign and South African clients, I started the S.A. National Professional Hunting School. My goal in starting the school was to use my own experiences and skills to improve the quality of new professional hunters entering the business. Since then it has grown to the most respected PH School in South Africa. My students hold of the highest academic scores of any school in the country. Students attending the S.A. National Professional Hunting School earn their qualification through hard work and dedication.
