Kal Lester
Kal Lester, Lemont, Illinois, USA
My philosophy, as encapsulated by Syd Downey, PH 1933”:
When you begin hunting, you go through three stages. You start by thinking you know everything, but of course you know nothing. The second stage is when you realise you don’t know anything at all. And the third stage is when you have learned a bit, but realise you will never know it all!

Trophy Solutions Africa (TSA) –
Sponsor of the Convention Bags
Once again, we wish to thank all the Outfitters, and their clients, for their continuous support during the past season!
As our new processing facility is running at capacity, we have again expanded, adding more buildings to accommodate an additional phase to our process. This has enabled us to provide a better quality product to our Outfitters and Professional Hunters, and, ultimately, to your (our) clients.
We run a very tight-knit operation and due to the dedication and diligence from our staff, we have managed to almost match our record season, despite a slightly slower season. We believe the service we provide to Outfitters and Clients, has rendered the final phase of the Safari, as quick and effortless as possible. A happy client leads to a happy Outfitter!
If you are not yet part of the Trophy Solutions Africa team, give us a try – you will not regret it
