To kick off International Camp we have Nolan Wannop (WSSBC Platinum Monarch Member) joining us to talk about hunting in South Africa. Nolan took his family to South Africa last year for an extraordinary adventure, one that we made sure to spend time on and discuss.

We got into the details and logistics with Nolan about his hunting trip, hopefully we answered some of your questions and educated on the process of planning an international hunt. Unfortunately Riaan Jacobs (Bosveld Jacobs Safaris) was unable to make this show as originally scheduled, thankfully Nolan stepped up and led the conversation with Chuck on his experience hunting in South Africa. Enjoy!
