The Hunt

Being on foot or crawling through the grass, or battling your way through thorny bushveld, the hunter one on one with his prey, in the heat and the wind, surrounded by the sounds and smells of Africa, trying to stay upwind of the animal, trying to anticipate their moves, outsmart them, all the time getting closer, close enough to take the shot…. This is the hunt. This is what big game rifle hunting is all about.
