Raw Africa: Hunting the Limpopo with Chris Barker
Wednesday, 15 April, 2026
Fresh from the field in South Africa, Kyle Stelter and Chris Barker sit down on day three of their safari to recap the first leg of an unforgettable hunt in the Limpopo region. Recorded live on location, this episode captures the raw sounds and energy of Africa—from swirling winds and distant wildlife to honest reflections after long days in the bush.The two discuss the journey to camp, first impressions of Bosveld Jacobs, and the incredible abundance of wildlife they’ve already encountered, including giraffe, hippo, zebra, wildebeest, sable, kudu, and more. They also break down the challenges of bowhunting and spot-and-stalk hunting in Africa, where swirling winds, thick cover, and countless watchful eyes make every approach a true test.Kyle and Chris share the excitement of early success on zebra and blue wildebeest, the emotional highs and lows that come with hunting, and the deep respect they’ve gained for the trackers, professional hunters, and landowners who make this experience possible. The conversation also dives into wildlife management in South Africa, touching on habitat work, predator management, disease prevention, and the private-land conservation model that has created an astonishing richness of game on the landscape.This is a candid, boots-on-the-ground episode about hunting, conservation, camp life, and seeing Africa for the first time through the eyes of mountain hunters from British Columbia.Presented by: @sitkagearSupported by:@yeti@zeisshunting@frontiersmengear@onxhunt@stoneglacier@wild_tv@schnee_hunt@precision.optics@gunwerksThis episode is also sponsored by WSSBC Conservation Partner, @gunwerks.
