Title: Neil Summers & BSC
Post by: BAO on September 22, 2010, 08:57:00 AM
This is in reference to my earlier post titled "Back from Namibia".  I booked this hunt through BSC as I did with my 2007 hunt in RSA with Howard Knotts of Greater Kuduland. I did not mention Neil or BSC is my first post because of a misunderstanding.  I thought that BSC and Allan Cilliers were no longer doing business together.  I was told yesterday that that is not true. Therefore, I am posting this as a ringing endorsement of BSC!  Unless you know someone(really well) that has hunted at a certain camp, I would not spend the kind of money Africa hunts cost without using an outfit like BSC.  I had a ton of communication with Neil both by e-mail and phone prior to booking with Howard in 2007.  It was simply invaluable.  I have been told that in some instances you can negotiate your daily rate fees with the PH if A booking agent like BSC is not involved.  I would not do this just to save $25 per day.
