Peter has been involved in conservation and hunting his whole life. He
has grown up on Mpofu Game Ranch and thus knows the terrain and
animal habits very well. He co-ordinates all hunting activities and
culling operations. He is a member of the South African Wildlife
Society and the South African Gun Association (SAGA)
He is an active reloader and firearm enthusiast and a member of the
South African Arms and Ammunition Collectors Association. (S.A.A.A.C.A)
"Joe"
or "Musket" Lubbe was
born in the Free State and spent his youth on a farm in the Luckhoff
area. He is a registered professional hunter and a member of PHASA
and the
South African Hunters and Game Conservation Association. He has
worked with Peter for a number of years and thus has a good knowledge of
the hunting areas we favour. His association with Mpofu Game Ranch
stems not only from his hunting and shooting abilities, but also
from his ethics and likable nature.
Lennox
(Len) Freemantle is the person who has paved the
way for Bandelierskop Ecotourism. He is a life member of the South
African Wildlife Society and the owner and founder of Mpofu Game
Ranch. He has hunted extensively in Zimbabwe (then Rhodesia) and has
shot both Lion and Leopard in defence of his cattle on Shangani
Ranch. He has never been a trophy hunter and has long since lost
count of all the animals he has taken. As a registered
professional hunter, his knowledge and experience far outweighs many
of the "professionals". He is still actively hunting and a
very capable shot. He acts as a driver and keeps the camp running
smoothly while the professional hunters are in the field.
Joyce
Freemantle has dedicated a major
portion of her life to Mpofu Game Farm. She coordinates the everyday
activities of the camp, is a qualified Cordon Bleau chef and supervises all meals.
Joel Mampuru
is the senior camp supervisor and a capable field guide, tracker and
skinner
Simon
and Solly
Matshekga are both very capable trackers and skinners. They grew
up in the area and know Mpofu Game Ranch very well.
Josephine
Matshekga is responsible for the cleaning
up of the rooms, laundry and washing up.
