And reiterate your words " in case of a dedicated area" and
mine "For an area dedicated to the hunting of game then landuse=hunting" ..
I think that is fairly clear ... dedicated, primary use is hunting.

Most 'landuse' have more than one function, but the primary use is tagged.

If the primary use is forest then it could be tagged landuse=forest with a secondary tag of hunting=* as you have put forward.
If the primary use is hunting then landuse=hunting should be used.
