Hunting technique used for hunting free-range animals 

1. “spot and stalk” hunts

2. extensive glassing from vantage spots to locate animals and assess trophy quality.

3. uphill climbing, and while it can be steep, it is generally of an open, and safe nature.

4. no pain: no gain is the rule that applies when free-range hunting hunting on foot.

5. admiring spectacular scenery

There is also plenty of scope for wildlife photography when hunting free-range. A range of big game species is observed as you hunt for the big one. Such photos may later adorn your home. One popular way to present these trophies is as canvas-art. We recommend Canvart and a selection of profile writer Greg Morton's shots are on their gallery page if people want to purchase them.
