Hunt Local

How Hunt Local works

A booking platform for South African hunting, not a directory of phone numbers.

For hunters

  1. 1Search. Filter by province, species, dates and group size. You only see farms that are actually open for your dates.
  2. 2Choose your hunt. Each farm lists its experiences - biltong, trophy, bow, bird - all booked at the same accommodation rate.
  3. 3Reserve your dates. Pick dates the farm has open. They are held for you immediately, with no waiting for farm approval.
  4. 4Pay. Confirm the booking by paying the full amount, or on hunts over R10,000, a 40% deposit with the balance due 20 weeks before you hunt (or 30 days before, if you book inside that window). You pay the farm's price; our commission comes off their side.
  5. 5Get your details. Once payment confirms the booking, you receive the exact location, directions and the farm's number.
  6. 6Hunt. Deal directly with the farm on the day. Trophy fees and extras are settled with them.

For farms

  1. 1List free. We help you set up your listing, experiences and accommodation rate. Listing costs nothing.
  2. 2Keep your calendar current. Close the dates you can't take from your dashboard and nobody can book them. Bookings arrive by email with the hunter's dates, group size and species already captured.
  3. 3Get paid. Earnings sit in your wallet until after the hunt, then you withdraw to your bank account.

What it costs

Hunters pay the farm's advertised price - nothing is added on top. Farms pay 12% commission on the booking total, which is accommodation plus any day fee, dropping to 10% on Pro and 8% on Premium. Trophy and species fees are never commissioned.
