Richard's long awaited hunt at Dewou Lodge delivered everything and more than we expected.
On Friday 4th August we left just after nine and found the roads to be busier than usual with speed traps every few kilometers on the N4 Highway. We were thinking that people were making it a long weekend with Wednesday's public holiday. π€·
We were settled into our cabin in the mountains noon and chilled for the rest of the day. The Golden Wildebeest, Waterbuck and Impala would peek in every now and then.
Wynand, the PH, picked us up at seven and what a glorious morning it was. No wind and the sun out in full Winter force. Within an hour Richard had bagged his 64.7 kg Blue Wildebeest and then we were taken on a game drive through the rest of the farm. Loads of Buffalo, Eland, Kudu, Zebra, Impala, etc. It was a real treat.
The rest of the day we relaxed and Sunday morning we were off back home.
Thank you Ella for a very special weekend. π
Now to get our meat processed and have plenty biltong.
Lovely to do a hunt so close to home, excellent accommodation and lovely people we met.
Going back for sure. π
I had one of my blond moments and I left my camera at home so had to do suffice with Mobile photos but hope you enjoy them.
