Hunting: The charm and magic of hunting in the woods: some tips to always keep in mind; first of all the great respect for the woods and the philosophy of silence. The forest and the animals that live there are excellent listeners.
Give the hunting ungulates in appearance, from a roof terrace, or in stalking, but also taking advantage of a natural shelter is quite simple, at least if this type of hunting is compared to the more difficult art of hunting by entering that world that is typical of the wild, the Woods. Hunting ungulates by entering the wood, their living space, forces the hunter to gain experience, to deepen his knowledge not only of the animal, but also of the territory. Hunting in the woods means merging with the environment, but also being able to listen to one's atavistic instinct, being aware of all those secrets that a forest and the animals that live in it have always kept: in short, hunting among the trees is a real and its own magic, and the hunters who practice this art, professionals in love with nature.
The success of the appearance. Why the hunt by the aspect, from a roof terrace, from a stalking on the ground or from a natural shelter is so appreciated it is easy to say: in fact, these are generally techniques (generalizing would be wrong) simpler to implement but above all more effective and easier to manage. As a rule, the hunter enjoys optimal conditions for hunting from a stakeout hunting: not only can he calmly read the animal and score a precise shot, but he also does not experience the discomforts that occur when entering the wild habitat; moreover, those in charge manage to control with greater precision not only the stalking, but also the hunters and any shots fired. All very beautiful and simple since from a purely logistical and organizational point of view this kind of hunting is the best to practice. But anyone who has experienced the thrill of the forest knows that this is not the only possible hunt. Advantage hunting in stalking facilitates the management of the same activity, but disadvantages hunters with a capital C who would like to live more concrete and sincere experiences, which do not necessarily end with the killing of the animal. To ensure a return to this kind of hunting, clear regulations would be needed, which immediately shed light on the fact that the rules must be respected. It would be important to provide severe punishments for offenders who demotivate assault hunting. In short, it would be necessary that the regulations drawn up by the technicians were designed ad hoc for a territory, with clear rules, capable of using concrete tools for compliance with the regulations. It is well understood that the situation could prove to be rather complicated. This is the reason for the success of the stalking hunt, beautiful and rewarding yes, but which must necessarily bow your head in front of the magical hunt in the woods.
The forest. Hunting in the heart of the forest is another matter entirely. There, every detail is able to make a difference. It is essential to be able to read all the signals that the environment sends us, wear the ideal clothing, it is important to choose the right season, the right day, take advantage of the wind and so on and so forth. . In general, these are attentions that a hunter manages to respect over time, with great experience and with infinite patience. At that point entering the forest, to hunt down an animal, to photograph it, or even just to have the hope of meeting and approaching it becomes a dream experience, an intimate and sincere pleasure, and you are well aware that every exit it is self-evident that there are no immutable rules, that if one day the wild can behave differently.
The rules. We enter the woods with the utmost respect: on the other hand, the woods are the cathedrals within which all the most sacred rituals that mother nature has always carried out are celebrated. The main rule to follow is that of silence, at least if you want to have any chance of catching the animal by surprise. To begin with, you must opt for clothing that is not noisy: very well no rope or nylon inserts, green light for pants or anti-rust jackets. The boots, when possible, should be equipped with a soft sole to "feel" the ground and any branches and twigs that are trampled before breaking them. In the event that one is broken, the advice is still one: stop for at least a minute and do not allow any identification by the wild. It would be good that the backpack also does not produce noises: ideal are those in cotton or loden. If equipped with metal hooks, potentially noisy it would be good to stop them with adhesive tape. Do you think this is excessive attention? You obviously don't know how many ears the forest has. The advice is also to stop and listen very often: the fact that you are not making noise does not mean that the game you are hunting is not making any in turn. In particularly closed hunting areas, a rather popular technique is that of surprise: take rather quick steps for a few tens of meters, at this point stop suddenly and observe. Your unexpected arrival could push the animal to the technique of immobility and mimicry; if you know what you are looking for, finding it will certainly be easier. Rely on good binoculars and remember that learning the right walk could make the difference: don't "throw" your foot, but place it gently, starting directly from the heel in a movement that is commonly called rocking. This way you will certainly be quieter and likely to be able to surprise the wild.
These are attentions that over time are made their own by hunters who love to hunt in the woods: on the other hand the forest is the best teacher, the important thing is that the hunter, his perennial pupil is able to listen.
