The Cape Hunters and Game Conservation Association (Kaapjag) was founded in 1984 by a group of hunters who were concerned about the preservation of game as well as specific hunting areas.

Since then, the association has grown to become home to more than 3 300 hunters and sport shooters, who share in their love and passion for wildlife and nature.

Kaapjag is affiliated at a national level with CHASA (Confederation of Hunting Associations of South Africa), ensuring liaison with The South African Police Services, the Department of Environment, Forestry, Fisheries, and many other hunting and conservation-related bodies.

Kaapjag’s objectives include the promotion of responsible hunting, sport shooting, and conservation.

1. An effective and advanced website/administrative system (Hunter's Portal).
2. Both Dedicated Hunter- and Dedicated Sport Shooter Status, which enables members to own more than four firearms.
3. Endorsement and advice in relation to firearm applications for submission to the SAPS.
4. Eleven geographically situated branches that offer continuous convenient services.
5. Third Party Liability Insurance for any official association event.

7. A say in how the association is managed.
8. A physical office in Durbanville with dedicated and knowledgeable staff available from Mondays to Fridays.

10. Constitutional protection by ensuring guidelines for good governance.
