Thanks for a great start to Jaktiv – and the winner of the Post of the Month is…
Thank you so much for the overwhelming support and commitment that has made the start of Jaktiv a huge success. Your contributions have created an inspiring hunting community where exciting stories, great tips and valuable experiences are shared across the board. We are deeply grateful for all the unique contributions that make Jaktiv a very special place for us hunters.
With that said, we are proud to announce the winner of ‘Post of the Month – December 2024’: Simone Sørensen!
Simone has shared an incredibly touching and inspiring story about her first hunting experience, which she describes as unforgettable. The post titled ‘My first hunt, my first shot and first deer’ is a beautiful picture of the feelings many of us can recognise from the hunt – the adrenaline rush, the doubt, the concentration and the great relief and joy when everything falls into place.
Simone’s story:
“DYR, der kommer dyr!” Jeg står klar, pludselig kommer et flot rådyr springende fra min højre side i perfekt afstand. Jeg afgiver et skud. Den springer videre, stopper op og ser sig om. Tårerne triller ned ad mine kinder. “FUCK, bare jeg ikke har anskudt den.” Jeg knækker mit gevær og ejecter hylsteret. Jeg kigger væk og er helt ved siden af mig selv. Hundene kommer op, jeg viser, hvor jeg skød. Hundene kan ikke finde spor. “Nå, den er nok ikke ramt,” siger han.
De andre hunde kommer og virker ikke just trætte, men løber den vej, jeg så den løb. Vi begynder at gå stille og snakker skuddet igennem – at den nok er løbet. Pludselig! “Simone, kom herud…” Det sidste kan jeg ikke høre, så tårerne presser sig på igen. Jeg var sikker på, jeg skulle ud og se, de havde fundet blodspor, og vi skulle ud at søge.
Da jeg kommer tættere på, kan jeg høre, de siger: “Den ligger her, Simone.” En dag jeg aldrig vil glemme.
A big congratulations to Simone!
Your story shows why hunting is so much more than just shots and trophies – it’s about the experiences, the emotions and the memories that last. We’re grateful that you shared your story with us all, and we hope that many more will be inspired to share their own experiences.
We look forward to hearing even more amazing hunting stories in the new year and continuing to build Denmark’s coolest hunting community. Maybe next time you’ll be the one to win the title of Post of the Month?
