In this episode of PH Journals, we break down one of the most debated topics in the hunting world—high fence vs low fence hunting in South Africa.
There’s a lot of misunderstanding around what these terms actually mean, especially from an international perspective. Is low fence really “free range”? Does high fence make a hunt unethical? And where does fair chase fit into all of this?
In this episode, we unpack:
The real difference between high fence and low fence
Why “free range” isn’t always accurate in South Africa
What fair chase actually means
The role of conservancies
How hunting quotas work
And why fence height doesn’t define the quality of a hunt
This is an honest, grounded conversation from someone in the field—cutting through the noise and focusing on what really matters: ethical hunting and sustainable conservation.
