How can I find out if horseback hunting is even for me? Where can a person get lessons? What does he need to know about it? Is it within his budget? I'm interested in learning how to properly use pack animals and saddle horses for deer hunting in the Lower 48 as a DIY hunter. This topic doesn't get much coverage in hunting publications and in the hunting media. I'm not sure if the American equestrian circles even cover horseback hunting in great depth. A horse or a mule is an outdoor tool and one needs to learn to use it properly like a gun, a blind and a gut hook.
This notion of mine behind horses and mules is to greatly reduce human workload in the field and because motorized vehicles (ATV's and such) are often prohibited or cannot access certain terrain.
I only found this on YouTube:

Any experienced big-game hunting horsemen are welcome to chime in here.
