Robert Greene organised this hunt, also attended by Russel and Sharon Burkhart, Keith Blankenhorn, Todd Klinger and Keith Fessler. Despite the fact that the hunt took place in mid summer a lot of fine trophies were taken, the tigers were well fed and everyone involved had a lot of fun. Professional Hunters on this hunt were Heinrich Funck, Mielie du Toit, Dawie Wiesner and Thinus Steyn. Predator hunting guided by Heinrich Funck.
