Call it luck, I would, but this has been a good hunting season and I am very thankful of the animals I have been able to harvest. I will head down to Pa tomorrow for my last hunt of this year and with any of the same luck I will be able to add to the freezer and have enough meat to get me through the winter.
have talked to three Amish families around here,and 2 of those families have harvested 7 or more deer this year,and the other one has harvested 5.
What time is dinner gonna' hit the table? :blushing:

Your secret is out, Mister! You can tell us you "shot" them but now we know better and we have photographic proof. I see the can of Kilz in the picture. Spread some of that around and, presto, instant meat for the table.
(nice job!!!)
Wow, Ken..so if I read that right I can pass through Mass as long as I have my valid Pa license with me. Man they sure can clutter up the second amendment....
I wish the kilz worked like that!! It would make things so easy!! You might see the kilz, but if you look close you can also see the bullet hole just under the ear..it's why the antlers are flopping around.Quote:

Nice harvest. Looks like you'll be eating well.
Congrats. Nice harvest.
I managed to finish up this great season with these two big does. My freezer is stuffed and I am very thankful. Now all that is left to do is tear the rifle down and clean it for its long storage until next season.
That's some fine eatin, right there.
We still have till Jan 15 for hunting season. So far I've harvested 3 deer, and between my hunting buddies we total 7 deer and a feral hog. There really is a lot to be said for the NatAm hunting techniques, i.e. stalking and using natural barriers.. easily half of our total harvest was taken using those methods.. now where did that post go?
I'm also curious how many folks realize that deer specifically did not evolve to suit their own needs.. but rather are more suited to ours. A deer is truly an all in one survival package. think of all the materials you get from one animal. skins and brains for clothing, sinew for sewing, bone tools and needles, fat for fuel... so many uses, so little space in the chop shop. (I threw this bit in for all the darwinists out there.. I personally don't believe in that kind of evolution)
Supposin somebody wanted to use deer fat for fuel.... Any tips?Quote:

Geronimo. It's super simple.
get as much fat as you wish to render and a sharp knife.
dice the fat into as small a bits as you can.
toss in a pan, cover with water, bring to a boil.
boil until the fat is mostly dissolved and you see flesh and meat floating in the water.
strain through screen, mesh, or a colander into a bowl. put lid on the bowl.
let it cool overnight.
when you check it tomorrow, the hard waxy tallow will be on top of the water. poke a hole in the edge on two opposite sides and pour the water off.
what you are left with is a big chunk of fuel for lamps, or sealing pouches, or waterproofing.
store it in a cool place with the lid cracked open for a while till the water finishes evaporating, then store indefinately.
I'm sure it will go rancid at some point, but if you're like me you'll use it up before then.
to use it, cut a chunk off the slab, warm it up, pour it into a jar or whatever and add your wick material. It will reharden and look like a candle.
I found true tinder fungus, and punky wood to work best for primitive wicks, and cotton from the roadside for a more modern approach. you can follow my wick experiments here
Depending on where you use it as fuel does it even matter if it goes rancid? It would still burn.
Thanks! I'll have to try that next hunting season. :thumbup:
It's an illusion. If you look close, you can see a bullet hole just under the ear. I grunted this guy in but he only gave me a shot at his head. Being a meat hunter, this is not an issue but the results of a .270 at about 45 yards make it hard to get a skull mount. What you are looking at is the right antler being only held by skin and the left pitched in from the broken skull. It was a nice looking buck but it will just be knife handles because of the shot.Quote:
