Hunting location wanted
I need to stock up my freezer again, does anyone know of hunting locations within a 2hrs drive of Pretoria/Johannesburg, that don't charge exorbitant prices for game up to the size of Wildebeeste and for accommodation?

Re: Hunting location wanted
Exorbitant to you and I may mean something completely different to someone else. I. E. Haves vs have Nots.
Maybe state what animals you would like to harvest and a ballpark figure that you would be happy with.
As for accommodation, that’s really up to you as well isn’t it? The options range from non electrified Bush camp up to five star quality. How deep is that wallet?

Next Hunt might be able to help. They don't have all available hunting farms though. https://www.nexthunt.co.za/
