This book is a must have for both new and more experienced hunters, who likes adventure and travel.
I wrote this book out of necessity. Being a new hunter. I was on my first hunting trip to another country and very excited. The local hunter told us, that we could also hunt wild boar besides what we initially came to hunt. I was ecstatic. A wild boar or should I say wild boars showed up. Having no clue where to shoot at, I didn’t fire a single shot. I was very frustrated. I didn’t want to wound any of the animals. I wanted to make a perfect shot. That’s why I wrote this book. To gather all (or most) rifle huntable animals in Europe. To show where to shoot the perfect one shot. The result is this small indispensable handy pocket-sized book perfect to bring on any hunt, so that you will never find yourself in a similar situation as I did.
The book is full of inspiration that should make you want to go out into nature here or there with family and good friends. It can be the long stalk on the mountain, a walk in the woods, a day in a high seat or out to the campfire. Just outdoors.
Book Content
Geographic Placement
This book is all about rifle shot placement on European animals living all over this beautiful continent. From the Seal in the ocean in the Nordic areas and the Muntjac in the UK, with the funny looking horns, as we hunters call trophy, to the Alpine Ibex living in the highest mountains. Almost all of them are represented in this book.
The Aim
Shoot for the heart or the lungs and you know the animal will die fast which is what, I write about in this book. A clean and ethical kill. You can shoot for the brain, spine or neck but you might injure the animal, if you are not 100% sure where to aim.
Calibers & Ammunition
There is no perfect caliber for all types of hunt. There are very good allround calibers.
There are hundreds of calibers to choose from. I’m sure all or most of them are really good. Many has their own favorits out from experience, others have recommendations from other hunters or from the salesman in the local hunting shop. I try to make some recommendations from the different type of animals with the right amount of knock down effect for the specific animal you dream about.
