The catch-phrase is "African hunts can be cheaper than many western elk hunts".
This is true of the hunt itelf. The problem is the rest of the costs to get there.
Airfair. That's going to cost quite a bit. And, you're going to want to bring stuff with you. The airline will nail you on overages.
The other big expense is getting your trophies home.
I'll bet you the total cost is double what the hunt cost is.
Also, a lot of time invested. This won't be a Sat-Sat trip and only 5 vacation days taken.
