Hunting tips and tricks
During my time in Red Dead Redemption 2, I’ve picked up several tips that I think would help new players just getting into the game. These tricks and hints focus more on best practices instead of in-depth game mechanics, which I’ll also detail shortly.

Stay on Your Horse - By staying on your horse you get a view from a slightly higher elevation, helping you spot animals at distance with more ease. I like to have my horse move at walking speed so that I don’t spook animals. If they do get spooked, however, I’m on horseback and can chase them down.
Use Your Binoculars - Open your item wheel and look for your Binoculars. You can ride around with them in your hand. Use them to spot animals, then study and reveal information on your prey. You can even track your target through the Binoculars, identifying the quality of the animal.
Always Be Prepared - When I’m on the road, I always keep my Carbine Repeater in my hands. This allows me to quickly get a shot off at an animal that crosses my path. I’m not exactly hunting here, but just being prepared in case opportunity presents itself.
Secondary Preparations - If I have a medium to large animal on the back of my horse, I switch from my Carbine Repeater to my Varmint Rifle. This is intended for small game, such as birds, squirrels, rabbits, and others. I can’t carry another deer, but I do have room for a rabbit on my horse.
Use Your Dead Eye - By pressing L3/LS + R3/RS while aiming, you activate Dead Eye, which will slow time and let you get a more precise shot away. Use this to hit fleeing prey, or to ensure your shot results in a clean kill and you’re not ruining the hide by firing multiple times.
Getting Clean Kills - If you truly land a clean kill on your target, it will often run a short distance and collapse, slowly dying. If this is something like a deer (not aggressive), it will show as a white paw icon on your mini map. If it's a predator (like a bear), it will be a red paw icon on your mini map.
