Out of the blue we were invited to a hunt in the Free State.
Originally we were going to leave on Thursday 13th July, but due to unforeseen circumstances we left Friday morning early. Traffic as usual was bumper to bumper at 6 in the morning, but once we passed the Gillooly's Interchange, traffic eased off in our direction.
We met together with Stephan and Chantelle in die tiny town of Jagersfontein and once again as we travel it is so sad to see the dereliction of another town.
Then it was off to the farm which was another hour or so.
Typical Free Sate country, it is flat and windy and soooooo cold.🥶🥶
It was better to hunt at night so the Friday and Saturday nights we were out in the veld till way after one in the morning. It was sooooo cold. 🥶🥶
We really enjoyed it. Richard hasn't lost his touch and dropped his last Blesbuck at more than 270 meters, one shot. And it was sooooo cold. 🥶🥶
Back home safely on Monday and waiting to hang the biltong.
It really was sooooo cold. 🥶🥶 But good. 😊😊
