APRIL

To the Whole Team! Cheers! . To Louis, you were the most kind, considerate, outstanding Man!  From hunting to host you were given the gift of love and compassion!  We truly loved spending every day with you!!!  . To Leandra, your inner beauty is beyond words!  Your kindness is extremely appreciated.  Your ability to be a nurse & help Josh was the kindest!  We loved your sweets & breads; you’re an amazing Cook!  We will always remember the happiness & beauty you bring to the lodge.  . To Johnny, your spotting ability to see the invisible was beyond our belief.  You were amazing.  How you rode on the back all day long we’ll never know.  Especially holding on while Louis hit those invisible huge holes! Wow! . To Charlie, love sharing my seat in the back with you!  Unfortunately our hunting time was cut short due to that tuff  Black Gnu who got you, but your extreme toughness came through! . To Henock & the Lodge Staff, your meals were beyond our expectations; the mustard sauce & blue cheese dressing to die for.  Thank you so much! . To Joof & Marina, you should be so proud of yourselves for creating the most incredible hunting operation and lodge.  From the decorations to the photo albums, there was nothing missed!  Josh & I hold our experience with you as our top experience!!  Your choice to have the heart warming staff is brilliant!  We hope we can return with family & friends.  From a scale of 1 to 10, you’ve been scored 1 Million, beyond any field medal.  Thank you so much! Love, Heather & Josh - Palmdale, CA - PS:  Thank you Louis & Johnny for making sure my game was bigger than Josh’s!  Haha!  Girls Rule!  Leandra & Baby Leagan (Girl!!)

Dear Joof, Marina and Louis , We have never experienced more gracious and genuine hospitality. The accommodations and caring staff have made our holiday memorable and relaxing. The view from our window at 6 am will always be with us. Thank you for sharing your lovely dinner table with us every evening and including us in Joof’s birthday celebration. Louis and Johnny, you are the absolute best hunting partners!! And, Louis, you have taught us so much about African plants, birds, animals and more. Thank you. We will be anxious to see how little Leagan has grown on our next visit. Our best to you and Leandra. Special thanks to Henock and Lahja for your amazing cuisine. Joof and Marina, thank you for sharing your beautiful lodge and homeland!  Till next timeDon and Robin Lackamp - Great Bend, Kansas - P.S. We will also miss Deedee, Jack, Charlie and Umbra.

Dear Jofie and Monica,This was the third and most exciting of the Elevator Safari Series. It has been a great pleasure to be with you again, spend time with Joof and Marina, cuddle with Umbra, and meet Bella, Tilly, Schatzie and Gizmo.   Visiting Waterberg was a fantastic experience which was made even more exciting with the successful Buffalo hunt. The Lake Lodge is a comfortable home and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay. You made us feel at home! The staff did everything possible to make our stay enjoyable. Josef’s meals were of gourmet quality! Watching rugby on the “box” and learning about the game was fun! The exciting moments during the hunts will be a lasting memory enhanced by Jofie’s super photos! Anne and I are both thrilled with the trophies and wish to express our gratitude to Jofie and Abiud for their tireless efforts finding and stalking the animals! And what could have been nicer than to have Monica welcome us back after a day of hunting with a roaring fire and drinks in hand?! Many thanks for the temporary loan of Umbra the super hunting dog and delightful bed mate. We wish you the best on your future plans and can’t wait until we return again. Love, Anne and Kirk  - North Conway, New Hampshire
JUNE
Dear Joof, Marina and Louis, I liked everything a lot mostly the food and seeing all the many animals.  Thank you for everything I loved it. - Autumn Valentine (10 years old) - Las VegasNevada 
Dear Joof, Marina and Louis , The memories I take away have very special meanings thank to you all.  The chance to experience and share Africa and Namibia was a special treat for myself and my family.  My gratitude to you for all that you have given me.  I can only say Thank You and hope that one day our paths will meet again.  - With Special Thanks , Paul Valentine - Las Vegas, Nevada
Dear Joof, Marina, Charlie et al, Thank you so much for sharing your Namibia with us.  I really feel that we enjoyed much more than an typical tourist and we really appreciated the insight of your knowledge and your family  history.  We had the best of the best!  Virginia Valentine  - Las Vegas, Nevada
Dear Joof, Marina and Family , It is not often that your best expectations are even better.  Your eye for detail and follow up is on par with the very best!  No wonder this sets you apart from all of the competition.  You put Cindy in a setting, and made her feel at ease throughout our stay.  She is my best buddy, and you made this safari one we will always remember fondly.  Louis, Johnny, Hennok and the staff have been trained by the best.  I say thanks and 'bye for now to my African Family.  Remember good things happen to good people.  You will all be just fine. Cheers for now. Larry A. Pendleton - (the man with the gift of the gab...)  Las Vegas,Nevada
Dear Joof, Marina and family, I can't tell you how much I enjoyed my stay in Namibia.  I was everything I had hoped for and more.  Your country is beautiful, as is your lodge and land.  The animals were spectacular and I enjoyed everyday out in the bush.  I'm going home 10lb heavier thanks to your wonderful food, but I enjoyed every minute and mouthful!  Thanks so much for a wonderful vacation.  See you in January. Cindy Pendleton - Las VegasNevada 
Jofie, Monica and Staff,  Thanks so much for the great safari.  Everything was perfect and I know I can demanding sometimes.  You guys do a great job with everything and are very fun to be with.  I enjoyed learning about your country, culture and hunting in general.  I will be booking again soon.  Sincerely,  Tom Brock  - Winston-Salem, NC
Jofie and Monica,  It has been many years since I have felt so completely pleased with an experience. What an adventure! I feel compelled to tell the story to others and try to repeat it again and again. You are such a hard working and passionate group. I hope you will always consider me a friend and allow me to do the same. You are so blessed to live in this beautiful country surrounded by these beautiful people. I will find an opportunity to come see you when you are next in the States, or next year when we return. All my best, Greg Scott-Winston-Salem, NC
JULY
Dear Joof, Marina, family and staff   We have had a wonderful time on our 40th Wedding Anniversary safari!  This has been a great celebration.  Thank you for your friendship and hospitality.  The time spent in Swakopmund was relaxing and invigorating all at the same time.  We needed that and it was a great start to our safari.  The time here at your Main Lodge has been fantastic.  The hunt for each animal was great and the trophies spectacular.  The talks around the find and the meals were wonderful.  I have learned that if you find something warm, soft and furry, that you were not expecting, in your bed, look what it is first before trying to attack it - it might just be a thoughtful gift!   (a hot water bottle!)  It is with sadness that we leave, but we take so many wonderful, happy and joyful memories with us - thanks for everything, especially the cake to celebrate our wedding anniversary.  It was not what I expected - it was monumentally better!  Thanks seem a little inadequate but it is very heart-felt.  Don Burkhart  Rawlins, Wyoming 
Thank you for your many kindnesses during our safari.  Beautiful memories to last - special 'golden moments' shared with most generous folk.  Serious talks as well as much laughter (like the ostrich tire..!)  May God bless your family and staff.  Mary Burkhart  Rawlins, Wyoming
AUGUST
To Joof, Marina and Staff: Another incredible safari with you has come to a close.  As I am writing this I am already missing this Eden which you have developed.  The hunting was intense and the adrenaline that flows during the climax of the hunt is worth whatever dollars or hardship it cost to get here. We talk about the beauty of the land and the animals, but not enough is said about the wonderful people who take care of your every need.  Your staff is very kind and the food better than any 5-star restaurant I have even dined in. The lodge is immaculate, and our rooms were more than we could have asked for. I pray that God continues to bless each of you and this beautiful Namibia that you love so much.  P.S.  Thanks for the birthday parties you gave Jean and I.  See you in Dallas. Cecil Leonard  Monroe, Louisiana
I've come home, and I didn't even know that I was gone.  The people, the animals and the land of Namibia are so enchanting that they continue to lure you back.  We're already planning our return and we haven't even left yet!  Joof, Marina and the staff - you are forever in our hearts and our prayers.  Fantastic food, fabulous accommodations, and forever friends!  What more can you desire? With Louisiana love  Jean Leonard  Monroe, Louisiana

Marina and Joof , Thank you for making our first trip to Africa a wonderful and magical experience.  When we met you in January Greg and I both knew we would be in the most capable hands. From arrival to departure, it has been one of the most memorable times of our lives!  Cornie was awesome, and Johnny was 'Superman" with eyes like none I have even seen.  Your staff - Hennok especially - were so sweet and helpful and courteous.  Wish we could have spend more time with Jofie and his Texas bride - our best to them.  Joof (the 'King") and his stories will remain in my mind's eye.  Marina - your gracious manner is unsurpassed!  Bless all of you and your beautiful Namibia . Wendy Schoemaker  Houston, Texas
My wife's notes above are hard to top.  As a hunter having my wife along to experience a 'true African hunting safari' will make the memories that much sweeter.  The whole Hunters Namibia Safaris team helped make this first trip to Africa a real pleasure.  We are very grateful for all your hospitality and the way you hosted us.  Best regards , Greg Shoemaker  Houston, Texas

Dearest Monica and Jofie, Words cannot adequately express what an outstanding hunting experience we have shared, but we do thank you from the bottom of our hears for your gracious hospitality, excellent staff, catering to our every need, wonderful animal hunting, complete with outstanding trophies, glorious sunrises and sunsets, and most of all for a wonderful new friendship. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and experiences. Best of luck always with the development of your trophy hunting business. We feel confident you will be successful. You are a great team! God Bless! Fondly, Eleanor and Scott Petty - San Antonio, Texas

SEPTEMBER
Monica & Jofie, Thank you for making our safaris so very memorable.  Jeff had never been to Africa and you were the best for his virgin visit.  I look forward to hunting with you myself in 2012.  God bless you both in your marriage   and business.  You both have great experience you bring to the table. Happy  Hunting, -  Deborah Price Dallas, TX
Thanks for an awesome 10 day hunt.  I will never forget this experience.  I learned so much I will use in my future.  Your staff and ranch are great.  I look forward to coming back soon.  Keep well. - Jeff

This has been a wonderful experience for me.  My safari was more than I could have asked for.  I saw so much beautiful country, and so many wonderful animals.  The trophy animals I took will be displayed proudly in our home.  My room at the Lake Lodge was comfortable and so well kept.  Please tell Josef my hat is off to him and his meals.  I must have gained 10 pounds.  Your staff and the lodge will always be a great memory for me. The hunt!  WOW.  Jofie, Abiud and Umbra, Thanks so much!  Each day was a new adventure.  There are so many different animals to see.  Thank you for the way you guided me to each trophy.  You guys kept it light and enjoyable.  It was a pleasure to watch and hunt with three real professionals!  I will look forward to our next hunt soon, Max Spurgeon - Fort Worth, Texas

NOVEMBER

Dear Jofie, As one who was raised in the hills of West Virginia, I enjoyed wild life and living off the land.  You are a real pro in taking care of your game and one helluva professional hunter!  Johnny has eyes like an eagle and really knows his game!  Victoria and I enjoyed knowing both you and Monica.  You both made my first trip to Namibia a real eye opener. Your Mom and Dad really developed a wonderful game reserve here.  Victoria and I thank them very much for sharing their treasures with us!  Thank you all for everything! Victoria and Chuck Yeager - California - C. GCYI

Dear Joof, Marina and familyThank you again for your hospitality and your over the top special touches.  Your attention to detail and unmatched professionalism ensures that Hunters Namibia Safaris is the finest in Namibia, and also unmatched in Africa.  We shall look forward to hosting you in Charlotte for the 1st African Sporting Expo. and together look forward to building the ASE show as the finest hunting and sporting 'ALL AFRICA' show east of the Mississippi!  Have a wonderful Christmas!  Thank you for a wonderful Thanksgiving! Gray and Kelli Thornton - Cody, Wyoming, USA
Dear Joof, Marina and family, What a way to be introduced to your lovely country!  I could not have dreamed of a better or greater experience.  I made new special friends - you treated me like an old friend.  My stay here at Rooikraal was an amazing experience - my room, the food and the long chats around the dinner table are something I will never forget. What a very special gesture the framed picture of our group at the play tree was!  So nice to have had the opportunity to spend special time with one of my GREAT 'Around the Campfire' guests - Oom Joof.  My whole experience here can be summed up by what my magazine African Outfitter stands for... The REAL classic African experience with NO PLASTIC!  Baie liefde  - Neels Geldenhuys
