I'm genuinely excited to share this with you.
After twenty-five years walking the wild soil of Africa — filming hunts, guiding families, watching the sun set behind acacia trees — I realized I could never truly retire. Africa became part of me. And The Safari Code is my way of giving a piece of that back.
I believe life unfolds in three seasons: learning, building, and giving back. This book is how I've chosen to give back.
It's more than a guide to hunting Africa. It's a love letter to the wild — everything I know about how to prepare, how to hunt with purpose, and how to let Africa change you in ways you'll never forget.

Because Africa doesn't just change the way you hunt. It changes the way you live.
Jim Burnworth grew up in his father's engineering shop in Oregon. His father designed broadcast technology so advanced he installed the first full-motion video phone in the White House. Jim took that same obsession with craft and built one of San Diego's largest video production facilities — working on sixteen feature films, three 24-hour TV networks, and live events for Oracle, Motorola, and Amway.
Then the wild called louder.
He spent the next two decades as one of outdoor television's most recognized voices — hosting eight national series on the Outdoor Channel, serving as Bowtech Archery's global ambassador for 15 years, and taking more than 1,000 big-game animals with a bow across four continents.
Today he's the founder of Jim Burnworth Safaris — connecting hunters to Africa through ethical hunting, storytelling, and conservation.




“My son and I shared something we’ll never forget. Jim didn’t just guide the hunt — he guided the moments that mattered. Africa has a way of bonding fathers and sons, and Jim makes sure you feel that.”


“This wasn’t just a hunt — it was one of the most meaningful experiences of my life. Africa got under my skin in the best possible way. The team made me feel like family from day one. I came home a different man.”


“My husband brought me on safari even though I’m not a hunter — and I ended up falling in love with Africa myself. It’s more than hunting here. It’s life-changing.”
