Bow hunting,
explained.

A field experience
built around patience.
Bow hunting is a form of hunting in which a hunter uses a bow and arrow rather than a firearm. It is typically a close-range, carefully guided field experience that calls for preparation, self-control and a strong focus on safety and animal welfare.
At Mount Marula, any bow-hunting opportunity would be discussed and confirmed with the lodge and the appropriately qualified professional team. Whether a species can be hunted with a bow depends on current law, permit conditions, professional guidance and the farm’s authorization.

How it generally works
From first question
to field day.
The exact arrangements are set by the lodge after it reviews the enquiry and verifies that a lawful, suitable experience can be offered.
Enquire
Share your dates, experience, party size and species interest. Rates are shared directly after the lodge reviews your enquiry.
Confirm the checks
The lodge checks availability, permits, seasonal rules and qualified professional supervision.
Prepare responsibly
If accepted, the team discusses the day’s plan, safety briefing, equipment readiness and field expectations.
Guided field experience
A professional team leads the approved experience and explains the agreed safety and ethical process.
Safety & respect
Responsible
by design.
- Follow the professional hunter’s lawful instructions and safety briefing.
- Respect all applicable laws, permits, seasons and property rules.
- Prioritize animal welfare and a responsible, considered experience.
- Do not assume a species or method is available until the lodge confirms it.
