Katie Hargeaves used to stick to a plant-based diet. Then she discovered venison – wild, sustainable, low food miles, and she is entirely in charge of her meat’s welfare in its last few minutes of life. She is out with pro deerstalker Paul Childerley, looking for a cull Chinese water deer with Paul’s Sako S20, as he assesses her stalking techniques for her DSC2 deerstalking qualification. And Paul talks through the new range of thermal from Hikmicro, including the Thunder and Gryphon models.
