Henry the Master Huntsman is an activity in Kingdom Come: Deliverance. After completing Cherchez la Femme, Henry is offered the role of Master Huntsman of Talmberg.
You will need the butcher perk, requiring a minimum hunting level of 5. From now on game products are no longer considered stolen.
Synopsis[]
After I helped Hanekin Hare, I was honoured with the title of Talmberg Master Huntsman. Now I have to take care of the Talmberg woods and keep the noble tables supplied with good quality game.

- Bring red deer meat to the Talmberg Chamberlain (0/90)
- Bring hare meat to the Talmberg Chamberlain (0/150)

- Bring boar meat to the Talmberg Chamberlain (0/90)
The last objective is three kinds of meat at once:

Walkthrough[]
Report to the Chamberlain to learn about your new duties. As Master Huntsman, you must hunt to supply Sir Divish with game for his table, and ensure that no poachers are active in the area. To begin, Sir Divish is holding a banquet and requires a great deal of venison. First though, ensure you have a hunting bow and appropriate attire. There will be some at the lodge - which is now yours, and has a bed.

Henry the Huntsman
Go to the lodge. There is a Very Hard chest in the storage room that contains all of the former Master Huntsman's inventory. Take it and sell it if you like, or use some of the equipment for yourself. The standard equipment is in another chest upstairs - a hazel hunting bow, some ordinary arrows, and an outfit. There is a deer hunting spot due east, so arm yourself and head over there.
Chances are you'll need to hunt down at least two red deer to get enough meat for the first order. While you are there, if you notice any roe deer, take them down as well, as you'll need their kidneys soon. As it's often only possible to harvest one kidney per deer, if any at all, you might as well get them where you can.
Either take the red-deer venison straight back to the Chamberlain, or else head a bit further east to the nearby boar hunting spot and hunt at least two of them for their meat. There are more red deer and roe deer in this area of the woods, so get what you need while you're here. Hares are also in abundance, so grab at least six of them as they wander across your path to get their meat.
It is possible to collect all the meat you'll need for the entire quest and deliver it all at once - provided the quality does not dip too low. A good horse with a pack will be more than enough for this, since (example taken from Al-Buraq with a Noble saddle) it can carry 452 kilograms, and all the required meat adds up only to around 308.
Notes[]
- The game uses the words meat and venison interchangeably, so when the quest tells you to get red deer meat, the actual item is called Red-deer venison.
- Becoming Master Huntsman affects Delicacies activity, where gamekeeper can stop you in the woods and accuse you of poaching, but if Henry becomes huntsman he will tell him that he can legally hunt animals.
- Strangely, each completed task improves Henry's reputation with the Monastery, not Talmberg.
