    River South have now purchased their own hunting block, I believe.


    Even when these various guiding crews are shooting on a game estate, they're often bringing in their own animals purchased from farms towards the end of their breeding life, or alternatively a number of farms now are specifically breeding for trophies and cranking out big numbers. $10k++ in the farmers hand for a stag is not uncommon.

    The block will be stocked with a truckload or three of the big fellas shortly before the first client arrives, and will be topped up as the season progresses.

    Just the way it is for paid trophy hunting.. not so much 'hunting' as entertainment for the wealthy.
