mmmmm, deer meat. I had a friend learned to bow-hunt one year, she had a house full of kids to feed, and her man wasnt stepping up to the plate. Six months after she went hunting, I got a taste of the last bowl of deer chili.
Hunters are a vital part of conservation, and I think some how bringing home your own food like that is very grounding, reminds us where we come from. I've talked to folk that deer hunting season meant they got to eat something besides corn meal mush all the winter, back in the day. say....I cant remember the last time I ate red meat(accept for a strip of breakfast bacon)....wonder what the hunting learning curve is?
