Introduction.
Nestled in the shadow of the Maluti Mountain range, between the Orange River in the south and the Vaal River in the north, are soft undulating hills covered with lush green grass and small lakes. This is the Eastern Free State, and where you will find Tweespruit. This beautiful little town is about a four hour drive East of Bloemfontein and is the home of Father Claerhout, one of South Africa’s most prolific and respected artists. This is where you will find the home of Four Seasons Wing-shooting Safaris, with plains game hunting and mixed bird shooting for the more adventurous hunter.
Upon arrival, you will be shown the accommodation available from which you’ll be able to select the rooms of your choice. This will either be in the main house or from a range of rooms situated around the lodge compound. Drinks will be provided in the lodge bar and then if you’re not too tired from the travelling we can set off for your first excursion.
That evening, you will be treated to a fresh cooked meal in the home style dining room. After dinner, you may retire to the patio and bar and enjoy a nightcap in front of an open fire. The night sky will be very clear and the stars very sparkling. You’ll wonder why life cannot always be this way and you should feel very pleased with life and relaxed.
South Africa is famous for its all year round rock pigeon and dove shooting. The birds flock in in their thousands to the sunflower and maize fields. Species available to shoot between March & September include: Rock Pigeons, Doves, Egyptian Geese, Spurwing Geese, Duck, Guinea Fowl, Francolin and Partridges.
After a hearty al-fresco breakfast, you will have a choice to shoot Rock Pigeons over sunflowers from a hide using a magnet or, depending on the flight line coming to the field it’s possible to shoot flighting Rock Doves, these can be very challenging! They flight in to the fields from about 10.00 hrs until 13.00 hrs where they spend the next 2 – 3 hrs wheeling around amongst the sun flower fields, then they fly back to the distant mountains from 13.00 hrs until 16.00 hrs. These birds fly in Partridge like coveys between a foot off the ground to 200 feet up.
A good pair of sun glasses are recommended as these Doves against a pale blue sky can tire the eyes very quickly.
Another option is driven Guinafowl shoots which can be an afternoon well spent. These birds, unlike their English counterparts can be in coveys from 20 up to 300/400 and many eyes make for a very cute flock of birds – they run like an old bird in January! The guide aims to chase them across the open plains using 4×4’s in order to get the coveys to flight twice and break the super coveys up a bit, they will then sit tight and it is possible to walk them up with GSP’s or in a walking gun line. If the guide gets it right, you can hardly load fast enough. A different strategy is for the guide to gather the local farmers, divide in to two teams, one team will stand and one team will walk. The drives will be crops of mealies or maize, as we know it this can be quite an experience!
