Many people love hunting.

The fresh air... the sport...  the cool gadgets... and the fresh meat.

Hunting has fed society for thousands of years.

Some of the earliest cave paintings depict the great  hunts of ancient peoples. 

People have always seen hunting as both a necessity and a sport.  

It's a necessity because people need to eat. 

And it's a sport because it takes a lot of skill to track down and kill a wild animal. 

There's nothing like the hunt. 

In today's modern society many people don't hunt because we can survive without it. 

But all over the world hunting is part of everyday life for many different people. 

Here in New Zealand at Doughboy Lodge, it's become more of a sport... 

A sport that many people have never tried...

There are few sports like hunting. 

Learning to track and kill a wild animal not only takes a lot of skill, but it causes you to respect nature as well.

Also, instead of a trophy, you get to eat fresh, delicious meat as your reward. 

 

If you don't really know much about hunting, you could be missing out on a great adventure!

Hunting is very exciting and fulfilling...

But many people just don't know the fundamentals of hunting.
