Join us for an epic episode of the DroneOn Show as we sit down with Bennie, a fourth-generation ranch owner from Hoeksfontein Safaris in South Africa! We dive into how thermal drones are revolutionizing his 10,000-acre ranch, from recovering game like Springbok to counting elusive animals and saving $30,000 by tracking escaped livestock. Bennie shares his journey modernizing the ranch, the beauty of South African hunting, and why drones are a game-changer for ranchers worldwide. Plus, hear about his hospitality and why South Africa is a must-visit for hunters and adventurers!
