I had a couple of days off from work and spend it on the Mpumalanga province escarpment.

I had to shoot 4 blesbuck for meat for the farmer...

Here is 2 rams I hunted on Saturday morning.





With the meat hanging in the cold room by 16:00 I decided to take a hike into one of the ridges and do a late afternoon calling session.

The area where I called is around 6500ft above sea level... It gets dark quickly.

Moved into the top of a ridge and settled down ...

Called for about 20 min before I heard a jackal vocalizing on the other side of the ridge.

I sneaked over to that side of the ridge and could just make out the jackal at 350 yards...

Settled into position and gave him a short squeeck of a jack rabit.

He responded in a flash and came in hard.

I stoped him at 100 yards or so and rolled him with a 40 gr VMax from the 222Rem.

Photo from stand ....



And the result...



On Monday night I introduce the dark art of predator calling to the next generation of callers.

The result ....

I think the smile says it all



At the end of the trip I called in and killed 23 jackal.

Thanks for continuing my "summer predator fix"!!

Congrats!!
