The fine print:
This South African Safari hunt donation is for two (2) hunters and is valid for the 2015 or 2016 season only. Nonhunters cannot be substituted for hunters. Trophy selection and hunt dates must be made by the auction winner
within 45 days of the event, along with the receipt of a non-refundable deposit of $500 per hunter to confirm the
hunt. The deposit will be applied to trophies taken on a per hunter basis – no trophy fee deposit sharing. Trophy
fee deposit may not be applied to dangerous game. We will ask the hunt winner to sign a liability waiver. Due to
the fluid nature of international hunting, Global Sporting Safaris reserves the right to revise our donation program
at any time without prior notice. This includes hunts sold at auction where we subsequently determine that the
featured outfitter(s) no longer meet our performance standards. In those cases, an alternate hunt of equal or
greater value will be substituted as deemed appropriate at that time to ensure a quality hunt for your members.
This donation is not refundable or transferable.
