How to choose your arrows
There is a lot of information that goes into choosing the right arrows for bow hunting. In this article, we try to simplify the process to help you get it right.
How to field dress a goat without gutting it (members-only content)
The most obvious way to field dress a goat for meat would be to gut it and then break it down into the cuts of meat, like we did for a kangaroo in this video.
Sometimes it doesn’t make sense to do that though and if you’re new to hunting, having to gut an animal can be messy and a little confronting – which is totally understandable.
Here is a method that we filmed while attending the Game Hunters Association of Australia Hunter Education course.
How to sight in a rifle (the dodgy way)

Slow cooked Panang rabbit curry
This slow cooked Panang rabbit curry is perfect for a cold winter night to warm the whole family. It’s not too spicy but has so much flavour. We used the leg meat from both rabbit and hares and slow cooked it to make sure the meat was super soft.

Can hunting aid Kenya’s economy post Covid?
In 1977, Kenya banned trophy hunting and pinned its economic hopes on tourism, believing photographic tourism to be more sustainable in the long run than hunting tourism. Enter 2020 and a global pandemic that hasn’t just impacted the health of millions of people around the world; it has also decimated the tourism industry. Kenyan based conservation scientist Dennis Ombaki believes there should be a place for well regulated hunting to help Kenya rebuild and provide much-needed economic aid to Africa post Covid-19.

Social distancing for hunters
The whole world is talking social distancing like it’s a new thing. But social distancing for hunters is something we have been actively practicing for years. Forget 1.5m distance; when I head out bush, I prefer to keep at least 1.5kms between me and the nearest person. There’s no better feeling than being alone out there with nature, far away from the maddening crowds.
Never too late to learn
