We’ll cover preparation, anatomy and shot angles, ammunition choices (including lead-free), decision-making under pressure, tracking and recovery, meat care, law and ethics (including Fair Chase), technology boundaries, public- and private-land etiquette, archery and muzzleloader specifics, and a concise pre-shot checklist. Think of it as a field-proven blueprint for clean, humane kills and honorable conduct.
