Ep023: Dr. Adrian de Villiers (a legendary bowhunter from South Africa‪)‬ The Wild Dispatch

Dr. Adrian de Villiers goes by many names, but perhaps the most notorious is Dr. Death. 

—A nickname coined after becoming the first South African to ever harvest the big 6 on foot, with nothing but a bow and arrows. (elephant, rhino, lion, leopard, Cape buffalo and hippo)

Despite his ominous title, ‘the Doc’ has been sharing nuggets of wisdom with outdoor enthusiasts for decades. For over thirty years he’s written multiple books and over a thousand articles about hunting in South Africa and around the world. Unsurprisingly this guy has amazing stories and close-calls by the bucket load…

A very big thank you to the Doc for sharing his skills and stories with us today!

You can reach Dr. Adrian de Villers via his email sarc@icon.com 

You can purchase any his books: Bowhunting in Southern Africa, Whatever it Takes, The way I see it, and Bowhunting Dangerous Game by reaching out to him at the same email.
