Those prices are not bad, the impala is a good deal, the others are ok.
the cull hunt is a decent deal and sounds fun. I have been to Africa twice and it will be quite a while if I ever get back.
my last trip was $3650 and I took
warthog
gemsbuck (two of them)
black widlebeest
Blue Wildebeest
Impala
springbuck
red hartebeest
I paid $3650 to the outfitter excluding tips but five of those animals were part of a package bought on auction including the daily rates.
My first trip was $5800 to the outfitter excluding tips and I took
Kudu
Blue wildebeest
impala
blesbuk
warthog
gemsbuck
I got a bit smarter the last time. I will say that dollar for dollar Africa is tough to beat if you are going to pay for a hunt.
but you gotta factor in taxidermy, flights and shipping of taxidermy. that is when this stuff can get expensive.
if you can get flights with points and you go easy on taxidermy then it can get real cheap. I have seen some folks buY a 4 animal hunt on auction for 1-2K use points to fly and do minimual if any taxidermy at all. (typically euros and flatskins)
