The Outfitter/Safari Operator may require an additional deposit to hold hunting dates once they are confirmed. The deposit may
be used for additional days, trophy fees, or expenses you incur with the hunt. The deposit may not be returned in the event of a
cancellation; however, it may be carried over if reschedule is necessary. Hunt dates are the responsibility of the hunter and the
Outfitter/Safari Operator and are handled between those two parties.
