Free range? Grass fed? Indeed.....the good stuff!

Your options are rather limited as I believe firearms are prohibited in the Quetico. But all is not lost. Location is everything. The selected tree must near enough to the game trail to assure the proper trajectory. The limb from which you would propel yourself must be high enough to avoid detection but low enough that should you "miss" your intended target you would not sustain severe injury.

As for the method of dispatch.......well they all have their devotees. Personally I'm a spear man but some of the more modern methods include the knife between the teeth and/or the lasso.

Avoid yelling on the descent. This may spook your quarry. Brightly colored bandanas are a no-no. Also avoid the male species as they sport a particularly nasty set of defensive capabilities arrayed on top of their head.......can't miss it. And lastly I suggest the smaller varieties. If you do decide for some of the larger specimens meandering about be sure and take 2 spears and perhaps a knife.......and a slingshot......a club might also come in handy.
