South African Hunt Areas:

All game birds in South Africa have a very specific game season. Pigeons and Doves do not have a season, but they are hunted when the sunflower fields are in full show!

Which type of hunt you want to do will determine where we take you. Infinity Lodge and Cyferfontein Lodge are locate within easy driving distance of some of the biggest grain producing fields in Africa. This food rich environment makes for fantastic bird numbers.

Infinito Safaris have embarked on a formal management partnership with our land owners, to ensure sustainable utilization of the quota.

Bag numbers are limited by law, but provides for enough feathered fun per gun per day.

A dedicated bird hunter can easily harvest 14 different game bird species in 7 hunting days. This feature makes South Africa a unique wing shooting destination, as there are not where else in the world where you can do this.
