The hunting experience is about so much more than just the hunt itself. When the excitement and pulse from the hunt has begun to worn off you have a rich resource in the meat to take care of. Game meat is climate-smart, free of antibiotics and other foreign additives and the animals are born free and has been living wild in nature for their whole life. And surely it is a special feeling when the meat you eat and serve to your guests is something that you have carried home all by yourself, from field to plate.
Being an ethical hunter is of great importance. This involves recovering wounded game. In this series, Team Norma member Steffen Foullon guides you through several shot analyses, and shows what to look for at the point of strike.
