Long Range Dassie Hunting at Witmoskloof Farm

[@JM10344]

I like when you tell us a little more about the gun spec. and pressures. A lot of us don't get to shoot and experiment as much it's nice to now what works. Thank you.

[@dronewild3234]

A lot of shooters talk about ethical hunting, only shoot what can be eaten, I never really believe them, they just say what needs to be said on film - BUT you come across really honest and I do believe you are about preservation of the land and balance of animals. 👍🏻👍🏻

[@brandonheathcote9503]

Matt I thoroughly enjoy your videos as they are top quality and very informative,the hunting videos are the best,you're truly good at what you do,keep on pioneering in the airgun hunting scene.

[@adamgriss2025]

Great video. Hunting for Rock Hyrax or Waber as they are known here in Saudi Arabia is rather popular, though people tend to use a larger caliber (a bit if overkill in my opinion) when hunting them. To say that they are challenging to retrieve after shooting one is an understatement! It's great to see more people representing a more ethical philosophy of hunting. Keep up the great work.

[@fin_jan]

I do enjoy that broomstick-on-a-pillow sound of the impact. It's addictive.

[@outputcoupler7819]

South Africa looks like a hunter's paradise. You have such a great variety of animals to hunt, especially with an airgun. Over here in the US I'm mostly stuck with pest species if I want to use an airgun. Shoot loads of rats and squirrels, but that's pretty much it. Could drive an hour to hunt rabbits, and I do sometimes, but not so much anymore.

[@viperflame900]

Can you show what happens to the bullets after passing through these animals? What kind of pellets do you use for hunting?

[@zzzzz77771]

Wow!! 158 yards is incredible shooting. That is a testament to both the rifle and the shooter, great shot.

[@gerryward7]

world have been nice to see the wee man have a shot to say thanks. cracking bit of shooting once again 👍👍

[@BarrieCopeland-je6lh]

Yeah, you showed me something, I own an hw100kt sub 12ft lb. I'm very impressed with not only your gun, but your shooting. Your ok, fella. If your ever in east sussex, I've land with challenging rabbit, and corvids. A nice range and sheltered positions your welcome, Brother.

[@TommieLjungberg]

you really have THE BEST airgun hunting channel, i really enjoy watching your videos. very proffessional editing too! thank you so much Matt, for another great video :)

[@phillipwethington1959]

Hello there I was just looking at some Squirrel hunting video's here in the U.S.A. I just watched the Ground Squirrel hunting video, I didn't know you all had ground squirrels, I hunt grays and fox squirrels here in the U.S.A. I also hunt White Tails deers, these Dassie that you all are hunting, looks like ground hogs here in the U.S.A. ( to me ) . I am glad I stumbled across your all's video. I wish I could try eating some Dassie. Maybe one day I will be able to try some Dassie. I am glad you all put this video on KZbin. Thanks

[@tigerleonardalonzohuntingv1847]

Hi im one of your avid fan here in the phillippines i love your content of hunting stay safe and Godbless..

[@RedLineEveryGear]

Any chance of a Dassie cooking video ?

[@biagiocozza2933]

Great Video Matt. Love to see those Dassies are put down with authority. Great shooting mate.

[@PeterMaddison2483]

That young lad is going to be an excellent guide and marksman when he is older, not saying he isn't now...

[@BullseyeBob]

One of your best videos Matt!

[@rmachayes]

Another comment, more of a question: In your opinion are there other meats that are similar in taste to the dassie?

[@dartagnanv8der613]

Great shooting and very challenging especially with the wind and the angle you had to shoot to hit your targets. Probably elevation as well. That's the longest confirmed kill I've seen with the FX Impact. 144 meters excellent shot Good job Guys!

[@mikeanderson2404]

I have seen you use several different camera adapters. Which one is this? It appears to be very close to the eyepiece. Thanks

[@r.bouth.6457]

What ammunition (pellet/slug) did you use of what brand and grain ?

[@aaronashley7097]

might have missed it but what ft per lb are your air rifles shooting at as they are very good

[@dannyalber4290]

This are great airrifles. I made a headshoot whit no wind on a crow 168 yards. Nice video!!!

[@alexanderdesfosses]

is there a reason why you don't have primos trigger stick it makes standing sitting and kneeling shots very easy and deploys and stabilized in less than 5 seconds

[@phillybaf]

What is your favorite/most useful ballistics app when hunting with air rifles?

[@AirTanksPlus]

Good Video, I am also interested in the Caliber used?

[@thecrispyfrog]

Matt - which range finder do you use? You never mention it in your equipment list.

[@rmachayes]

Outstanding marksmanship Cheers

[@kevingrimbeek2106]

Apologies Matt, great show! My grandson and I now have discussions and reviews about your techniques, content as well as variety. Lovely and VERY educational too.

[@brianlouw]

I am originally from SA , now live in the U S A . I would like to know where is SW Africa close to what City ? is Witmoskloof ? my son and i watch your video often and we love to look on the Google maps . I have a Uncle in Cape Town

[@juliocesarvanegas4902]

Please tell me about: edgun leshiy. Barrel of Leshiy have choke or not? Many thank!

[@alanperry9744]

Wow you are so lucky stunning land to shoot over. To get them long range shots practice over lakes dust pans mud beds that's how I lend without a range finder. Ceep the vids coming love them thank

[@hellborn502]

At what range do you zero in the impact for hunting?

[@scubajeeper1]

Great video Matt, you are a lucky man, beautiful country and such a variety of game. If you only didn't have caliber restrictions, I would love to see how far you could stretch out with a .25.

[@siyasishaoor3562]

You are skill full and clicks are incredible . Stay blessed and stay safe

[@paulbunyan886]

Would a pcp be worth the investment over a .22lr? How much maintenance is needed in the long run?

[@ronwatkins754]

What caliber were you using to shoot

[@TLRChad]

Whatever pellet you're using makes quite a distinct "thud" on impact.

[@AirArmsHuntingSA]

+TLRChad Yes they sound solid! They are normal JSBs but I think the rocks amplify the sound a lot

[@billiebleach7889]

Almost forgot: how about a video on the accuracy of the FX Royale Extreme, with the pellet-barrel that is. Is it as accurate as the Impact? Really interested in buying a pcp from FX but I'm in doubt between the Royale and the Impact.

[@AirArmsHuntingSA]

+billie bleach I'm planning to review the Royale at some point. I absolutely love the Royale, possibly even more than the Impact

[@billiebleach7889]

Really...interesting. So, I will try my luck with the Royale. Thanks for the reply

[@anthonyvega1959]

Thank you for sharing. Beautiful country

[@JacobeFPV]

I look forward to these videos, I like the production quality.

[@wyatthuntingandtrampolinin1752]

Do you think I should get the fx impact or the fx royal

[@JuanFouche001]

Good day. My name is Juan Fouche and i'm in Botswana. I have been watching you clips on youtube. I just would like to know what app you have on your phone to see where your pellet is going to hit at any distains.

[@juanchuj]

I belive it's Strelok Pro iPhone: itunes.apple.com/us/app/strelok-pro/id525429653?mt=8 Android: play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.borisov.strelokpro&hl=en

[@d-lari]

in the 11:12 what is the app that you used to have that scope data ?

[@alexbrunes6741]

Hi! Guys tell me please is it difficult to install the power plenum on fx impact ???

[@Howardtripper]

A big thank you for always explaining why you shooting the animals and what the are doing that is destructive its nice to know

[@danielswatske519]

he has to explain why he shooting the animals and what reason there so many snowflake crybabies.

[@jammo2z]

Did you shoot any specific episodes that discusses the apps that you use?

[@marlongreen1507]

I love your videos.you explain reason y you hunt and also i learn a little history from you keep up the good work.

[@69STARBREAKER]

The animals have perfect camouflage!!!!

[@darkseas3846]

Hi matt great video as always just a question about you impact barrel and silencer where did you get it from and is it and FX or after market one ?

[@StayFrostyR9]

mate 144 mt shoots also 5.5 ? Please let me know cheers.

[@davidhollfelder9940]

Which version of FX Impact?

[@roux5510]

5:13 do you ever shoot inyala? Just a question

[@AirArmsHuntingSA]

+African Apollo I actually just filmed a Nyala hunt! It will be up in a few weeks

[@roux5510]

Awesome

[@ollieturner5590]

great video! are you using the JSB heavies or something harder hitting for the dassie?

[@AirArmsHuntingSA]

+Ollie Turner Yip using the JSB heavies! The Polymags are also shooting well but they don't fit in the magazine unfortunately!

[@ollieturner5590]

+AirArmsHuntimgSA thanks would you recommend the poly-mags for pigeon in a sub 12ftlb gun or not

[@colinshard8665]

do you use the .177 or the .22 barrel on the FX?

[@alexjose1985]

Great Job Guys ! Thanks a lot for those videos

Great video Matt

[@franzschmid9079]

What kind of Wind meter you are using? regards out of Switzerland

[@regsparkes6507]

What does the Dassie meat taste like,..or similar to which common meat ? Beautiful countryside, as I've said before. Thanks for this, I liked the video length too.

[@jasoncox6058]

I hear that young ones taste a lot like chicken. Older ones are seasoned with curry to tame the meat,

[@AirArmsHuntingSA]

+Jason Cox Spot on

[@airgunhunterzw4414]

Waal, Matt you are great. Liked every bit of this video. Great long range shooting bro😆😆😆

[@johndonohoe9165]

Hi what range did you zero at.

[@gunsaway1]

How many shots do you get out of your FX? (2) These critters look similar to our groundhogs in the US. They borrow and eat the hell out of pasture grass. Hard on your cows.

[@tommielourens1453]

Matt i like you're videos all off them you are a legend

[@anthonysooklall8471]

wow what a rush I'm just looking an I can only imagine the feeling. You've got to be the best hunter I've ever seen real cool. I'm looking forward to the other videos

[@zapz2101]

What pellet and what velocity where you shooting?

[@mcnultypride]

emiliano echeverria we all want too know!

[@eldairfirmiano7181]

How much zoom on the telescop?

[@grimwoodsg7244]

cheers mate the frontier is an amazing scope hey

[@bobbythompson3544]

Could you explain what a Dassie is!

[@Cal-nm1pc]

Wow very nice shots, what ammunition did you use for those far reach shots?

[@brocockboy]

Same thing I’m wonderin*? And he doesn’t respond to questions or what?

[@MAAAH1581]

greetings from Saudi Arabia keep the good work guys

[@gouillaabdallha1693]

What better place you visited on your trip

[@donaldotsig6818]

What cal what pellet amd ft lds and velocity please

[@snafuops8682]

Lucky kids to grow up on that beautiful farm. Dream hunting in your own back yard!

[@phillipal-redha4910]

Hows it? mate got 2 questions for you if you dont mind, 1 what range do you zero your scope? And 2 what caliber Impact do you use? i have been using springers for back yard target shooting for 30 years now but your video's and ted's actually made me go out and pick up an impact. I shoot as a mental challange. If I was not in Dubai I would also hunt to eat but that is out of the question here. I have been pushing out to 100m but would like to know what you are sighted in for. I would definatly love to spend a day or 2 out hunting with you if i make it out to SA. Cheers mate and keep up the good work!

[@ericgarcia2959]

How long did it take you to save up the money to buy the FX impact I'm 15 and I would love to have some of these guns

[@djrdaddy]

Matt can you inform us all why you are targeting Dassies- what damage do they cause our there among the rocks? I shoot vermin regularly in the UK but there's always a sound reason why. Regards...Lance

[@djrdaddy]

Thanks. I should have watched the entire video first!!

[@matthewchastain136]

Did you watch the video?

[@jiraiya-bt5xm]

nice video，how does it taste like

[@hanturimba6248]

I really like your snack buddy,💪💪👍👍👍👍

[@robertgalbraith4212]

Hi Mat. I learn lost folowing your vid's. Could I ask you, why did my group inprove signifently when pulling dry patches enery 250 shots using JSB 18.1grain?

[@JamesKing2understandinglife]

Great video. Excellent commentary.

[@jimsindhvac2678]

what amo are you using?

[@j.danaclark89]

What do they taste like?

[@kolbywarnock9544]

what caliber are you using

[@joedoe8584]

You and your friend are wizards with those long distance shots Matt. I am still waiting for my Impact .22 to arrive and seeing your video makes me think my rat killing will be overkill for my Impact. What JSB pellets are you using for that accuracy?

[@momouppa]

Great content and production values as per usual.

[@grimwoodsg7244]

is the scope you are using the 2.5-15 or 5-30 I can't decide

[@AirArmsHuntingSA]

+Grimwoods G 2.5-15

[@yamahabigwedgy]

Hi great videos I watch all of them I am currently ordering an fx impact fac in 22 cal, what do you zero yours at? And also are you using the 22 in this video thanks Carl

[@mohammedsaleh2192]

Nice Vedio bro. I like all your videos. What is the best velocity for fx impact using 18 grain?

[@AirArmsHuntingSA]

+Mohammed Saleh I found that my best accuracy was at 930 fps, which is faster than most airguns can get before pellets start to wobble

[@mohammedsaleh2192]

Thanks brother. Iwill try it

[@Cupillac]

Great video once again Matt! ..... what Eagle Vision camera mount are you using for the Casio Camera?

[@michaelwthalman]

What brand and weight .22 cal?

[@Septimius13]

What would the Dassie compare to in the US? We hunt woodchucks and squirrels and such with .22 LR or .17 HMR but the Dassies look larger? Great video as always btw, greetings from NY m8 :)

[@AirArmsHuntingSA]

+Tim I would compare them to rockchucks

[@richardmusak5474]

When will you try Steyr LG 110 Hunting High power ? Nice rifle .22cal, 40J....

[@প্রতিবাদী-ঠ৫খ]

Dear sir i want a hunting air gun but how do i get it.... Plz tell me Proseshing.

[@grahamhassall4136]

love the videos Matt. great shooting, keep it up. inspiring stuff.

[@kcderuyter6129]

Two quick questions for you. I've been trying to learn ballistics through your videos in Airgun 101, and can't seem to find your deal on barrel lengths and barrel twist. Please send me a link by return. Also, just curious what is your ex impact caliber in this video and what is your opinion between the .25 and .30 thank you and have a great day

[@AirArmsHuntingSA]

+KC DeRuyter That will be the next video in the series. Be patient, it might take a few weeks to upload.
