You leave the manicured lawns of Sun City and the bush closes around the vehicle like a curtain — thorny acacia, flat-topped trees and the dry, whispering grass that marks the Pilanesberg edge. The archery range at Letsatsing sits on open scrubland beside the greater Pilanesberg complex, where the land itself still remembers ancient geological upheaval.
