Transcript: "The perfect hunting experience... Well there is just many about opinions on that as there are hunters. Some loves the beech forests and farmlands of a place like Hirschfelden... But me, I prefer a different kind of Wild. Where snow covered peaks surrounds valleys several miles wide. That is Layton Lakes District, the best hunting reserve you'll find in a hundred miles. Whether doing tasks for the locals or just hunting deer for your hearts content, you're free to explore this Pacific-Northwest Reserve however you want. You may find your favorite hunting spot around a large valley lake or deep inside a dense spruce forest. Layton Lakes District is home some of the most majestic animals in the wild like the Moose, the Black Bear and the mighty Roosevelt Elk. Bagging one of these will required a combination of the right equipment, skillful tracking and stalking so you can get close enough for a clean shot. Few things beat hunting together with a group of friends though, everyone can bring their own skills and hunting equipment and play a part in finding an downed and that big one. In the end, how, what and where you wanna hunt is all up to you and a truely immersive next generation hunting experience awaits!"
