Hunting & Forestry: Gear for hunting, game management and woodland

Hunting & Forestry: Kit for your ground

Whether you have just passed your hunting licence or have looked after a shoot for years, out there you need equipment that simply works. In Hunting & Forestry you will find everything for hunting, game management and woodland work. That includes optics and knives, high seat accessories, trail cameras, winter feed, tools for processing venison and solutions against wildlife damage in the garden.

From the high seat to the larder

A day of hunting has many stages. Up in the high seat, a good pair of binoculars, a warm seat cushion and a hide heater help you stay calm and focused. Once game is down, it is all about clean game recovery with a game drag, game tub or hitch carrier. Afterwards, sharp knives and processing tools make sure your quarry turns into good venison. Dog handlers will also find equipment for working with their four-legged hunting partner.

Game management, wildlife protection and forestry

Looking after your ground is part of hunting. With wildlife feeding you support game through the lean months, while trail cameras keep you up to date on runs and numbers. Lures and calls help with targeted control of foxes, corvids and wild boar. For woodland work there is forestry marking spray from Göbel and Kerbl, which lets you mark trees, boundaries and extraction routes clearly. And if deer or wild boar are causing trouble in your garden, you will find gentle ways to keep them away.

Frequently asked questions

What equipment do I need first as a new hunter?
To start with, good binoculars, a reliable hunting knife, weatherproof clothing and hearing protection for the range are enough. Add things like thermal imaging or a hitch carrier step by step once you know how you like to hunt.

How long does a forestry spray mark stay visible on a tree?
On dry bark, forestry marking spray usually lasts several months, often longer, depending on the weather and tree species. Spray in dry conditions and give the can a good shake beforehand.

Is feeding wildlife allowed everywhere?
No, feeding and baiting are regulated differently from country to country and often from region to region. Check with your local hunting authority what applies on your ground before you start.
