Lou!
I would translate this to:

"It is a Jager's mark of honor
That he protects and cares for his Woods/Forest"

This looks like a very interesting and special piece!
Congrats!!!

Sorry, almost. It's Wild not Wald.

It is a Jager's mark of honor
That he protects and cares for his wild game (animals)

Lou

Most of the hirschfängers with that inscription on are newly made repro's, I've seen so many I'm sure they are knocking them out today.
