Hunting For Meat

My favorite thing to hunt was always pheasant. Also my favorite thing to eat out of everything I hunted.

Gave up hunting long ago though. Don't enjoy killing enough. Still enjoy going hunting with others but just choose to shoot with a camera rather than a gun.

It ain't the killin it is the belly fillin.

I shoot pheasant, quail, duck, coon, squirrel an muskrat on my property. Last year I got a landowners permit from the neighbor farmer an took a deer. Sometimes I get to hungry an sneak at the park after dark an shoot ducks with my pellet gun.

Fair enough. My belly is always full without the killing though so I'm good. Eating a couple of yogurts right now to fill my belly.

Tons of fun to hunt pheasant with a good bird dog. Not a huge fan of pheasant meat though. Dries out super easy.
 
I bet it's fairly easy to buy local hunted meat. I know many retards from high school that just like the killing but don't like the actual taste of "game" meat.

Illegal to sell wild game.

And no, you don't know that many people that do that. It's a small minority.

I hate killing anything (except flys, I hate those things), but I think killing and gutting the animal myself would be the best way to gain the experience I'm looking for.

Right now I buy some meat at the store, cook it up, and gobble it down without any remorse or any thought at all. I'm not a PETA member or anything, but I feel like hunting might give me more of an appreciation for the animal I am eating.

It might also benefit my shooting. I consider myself a decent shot, but gut shotting a deer would be a terrible experience and I would take my marksmanship abilities much more seriously if something like that was on the line.

Do you two get free yogurt at work? I could live on that stuff alone. I eat 3 Greek every morning and always end up wanting more.

I'm not much of a hunter anymore (damn kids), but you MUST learn how to gut the animal before you go. And probably learn how to quarter one if you're going in a long way in/on anything other than a motorized vehicle (horseback, hiking, etc.). As far as what to do with it from there, find a good game butcher and take it to them. Talk to other hunters. Get good equipment (gun/ammo, bow/arrows). This is not an area to get cheap. Practice. The last thing you want to do is gut shot a deer, have to track it down, and shoot it while looking it in the eyes. That sucks. Plus there is a difference in the meat (a huge rush of adrenaline into the meat pre-death).

Sucker.

For big game, carry 4 large heavy duty plastic bags, the kind with handles and ziplocks. Saw off the head, cut out the backstraps and the quarters, and leave what little is left for the predators. It'll save another animal's life for a week. 2 birds, 1 stone.

Or, you can go the whole route of cutting the *** and squeezing out the **** pellets, slitting the throat so you can pull the innards out by the wind pipe, and drag the entire damn carcass through the woods only to get little more meat and a lot to dispose of with nowhere near to send it to.

I work with a lady who went down this road raising chickens to eat. Now she's a vegetarian.
