About hunting in Gauteng

Gauteng, which means “place of gold” is the smallest but most densely populated province in South Africa, highly urbanised and contains the country’s largest cities and administrative capital offering a range of tourist attractions from working gold mines, the Cullinan Diamond mine that has produced some of the world’s biggest Diamonds ever found. The cities have modern shopping malls, numerous museums, sports stadiums, hotels and expo centres. These facilities attract sports fans, conference attendees, delegates and visitors from around the world, many of whom are looking for an opportunity to enjoy the country’s attractions, of which hunting is but one. Johannesburg, the biggest city in South Africa serves as the gateway to Southern Africa and the main hub for international flights from all around the world. The majority of international hunters use OR Tambo International Airport as their port of entry where they are greeted by their outfitters on arrival, with some flying off to other destinations to hunt in both Africa and South Africa. The province sees many hunters but accommodates relatively few although there are hunting opportunities within 30 minutes to an hours’ drive from the airport. The bulk of the province offers great Highveld hunting opportunities in undulating hills, while the east has a warmer more dry savanna habitat. Being at a lower altitude, you are now in the fringe of the Bushveld. The Highveld specials are species like Black Wildebeest, Springbuck, Blesbok and Eland as opposed to the Bushveld where you find species like Kudu, Blue Wildebeest, Impala and Warthog. Dinokeng Game Reserve and various other sanctuaries and wildlife centres have the “Big 5” although the only dangerous species hunted in the province is mainly Buffalo and the occasional White Rhino.

Successful Macnab Challenge

Rust De Winter Safaris

Jagdanbieter

The trip immediately started with a catered pickup from the Johannesburg airport, followed by a relaxing drive to a reserve containing breathtaking animals. To say the Big 5 would be an understatement. Following the conclusion, my arrival at the lodge included a welcoming owner, operator, PH, and chef who began explaining the festivities planned for the hunt in the morning. The bonfire, dinner and dessert were delicious (including Kudu game meat). The lodge included my own private kitchen, living room, and clean bedroom. The morning started with a rifle warmup session for acclimating to the top-of-the-line equipment provided and the hunt began. The reserve size was expansive, with 4-wheel transportation everywhere to prevent becoming tired throughout the long and fun day ahead! The macnab challenge included a Guineafowl, Impala, and Bass in the agenda. Guineafowl run quickly and aren’t the largest birds, but the PH and operator ensured we found a suitable location with Guineafowl for action, crossing the Guineafowl off my list. The impala hunting was amazing. Many bucks and herds running and grazing across the land. It was a challenging time throughout the midday as the heat kicked in. We paused for a fantastic brunch ant the lodge, and fished for several hours in a local lake then private Eco-friendly (owned by Rust De Winters) resort that had large mouth bass swimming in the river alongside. An exhilarating catch was in-store and resulted in checking the bass off my list. The owner mentioned that transitioning to a blesbok instead of an impala was an option as the day progressed for more exciting options! Lo and behold, my PH identified a grazing heaven with Blesbok. My operator advised me which animals were fair game, and we setup in the truck. Despite the brush, a visible shot was apparent which concluded the day. We celebrated with another sunset safari to see giraffes and zebras, followed by another excellent meal. I cannot wait to come back, as this was an experience I will NEVER forget. Thank you, Rust De Winters!

The owner, operator, and PH made sure my stay was terrific.

Accommodations are excellent! The food served is very good and I considered it gourmet quality. Very nice, comfortable hunting vehicles. Plenty of game running around with some good trophy animals in the mix. Lots of things to do in the area for non hunters. Overall a very good hunt.

Property is a bit small, but still challenging to get the bigger trophy animals.

Rust De Winter Safaris

This was a unique experience for me. Upon my arrival I was greeted warmly by Rust De Winter's family. My stay was lovely in an amazing property. And most importantly, from A to Z it was all communicated clearly by my guide Wian a professional hunter, safety and weapon selection, tracking, identifying critical points and a lot more. I will most likely visit again to refresh the experience. I definitely recommend this!
