For his 60th birthday, Willi had only one wish from his family and friends: a financial contribution for his lifetime buffalo, which he planned to hunt with his family in South Africa as part of a family hunting safari.
Said and done, the Schüller family set off for their hunting safari at Muller Hunting & Safaris base in the Eastern Cape of South Africa right after the Christmas holidays in December 2024, where they were planning on spending an exciting and eventful 10 days at NGIRI Wildgame Reserve.
It was supposed to be a buffalo stalk with the whole family – and that’s exactly what happened. A beautifull free roaming Dagga Boy (later measured at 43 inches) was shot after two days of stalking over hill and dale. Thanks to Willi’s good first shot placement, the kill shot wasn’t actually necessary – but it did bring immediate relief. Congratulations to this magnificent and exceptional trophy bull!
After this major goal was achieved, the other family members (all hunters, including the two daughters) also got their due, and Willi finally treated himself to a springbok.
We also visited the Addo Elephant Park together and paid a visit to our taxidermy in Somerset East. It was a pleasure having you with us, and we look forward to seeing you all again soon at NGIRI Wildgame Reserve!
Our first hunting trip for only female hunters in November/December 2024 was a great experience.
Our participants didn’t know each other beforehand (except for two who booked together) – but in the end, they formed new friendships that will perhaps last! Thank you all very much for working together, fostering a great sense of camaraderie, and making these days so special!
We’re already planning the next chapter – look out for it!

We visited Bernd and Anja at NGIRI last November and were looking forward to seeing them again. This time, too, the time passed far too quickly. We had chosen a night hunt for bush pig and steenbok. Eland, Oryx, and Nyala were also on the agenda. It was wonderful again, and we’re already planning our next hunting trip to NGIRI.

Following the recommendation of hunting friends, we contacted Anja to learn more about her private hunting in South Africa. Anja invited us to visit her booth at the Jagd & Hund trade fair in 2023, and we liked her idea of sustainable, ethical hunting in South Africa so much that we decided to go for it and booked a family safari on NGIRI for September 2024.
We were not disappointed – our week on NGIRI was an adventure just the way we wanted it. An enormous game population with exceptional diversity met excellent cuisine and wonderful hospitality. The hunting success was also impressive, and we ended up with a massive lynx (hunted with a pack of dogs), an abnormal nyala bull, a bushbuck, and a steenbok. The trip concluded with a deep-sea fishing trip in Port Elizabeth before we unfortunately had to head home.
Thanks to Anja and her team for a fantastic time and wonderful hospitality; we felt completely at home!

Travel report on bow hunting by Alberto Redondo, Switzerland, July 2024
I went bow hunting with another outfitter in the Limpopo region 4 years ago and had hoped for more. At the time I had been promised that we would hunt with my bow – but in the end I had no choice but to switch to a long gun in order to be successful.
I wanted it to be different for my hunting trip with Muller Hunting and was not disappointed. The beautiful lodge with its extensive hunting area offered numerous opportunities for bow hunting, Anja Muller’s team was well prepared for my visit and so at the end of my 10-day safari on NGIRI we not only had a stately sable antelope stallion but also a kudu bull, a strong nyala bull and a baboon on the trail. My wife and I felt very comfortable – the food was excellent, the service very friendly and attentive, the hunting guide was professional and goal-oriented. This is how you imagine a hunting trip! And yet everything has a very personal touch.
You can see the passion with which Anja Muller runs this ranch in every little detail.
Thank you to Anja & her PH Philip for this unforgettable hunting adventure in the Eastern Cape of South Africa!
