Why hunt Uganda with a bow.

Uganda, the Pearl of Africa, sits right on the equator. With its high rainfall, you can expect lush, green surroundings almost year-round, a world away from the dry savannahs to the south.

It is a bowhunter's paradise thanks to very low hunting pressure, and about as good as free-range hunting gets with a bow and arrow. We have access to five areas across the country, each one hundred percent sustained by hunters' dollars and the anti-poaching teams they fund.

What's included

  • Professional hunter & specialist trackers
  • Accommodation & camp services
