I hunt deer and hogs with a primitive bow and arrows when I get the chance. Few years back killed a nice hog with the gear.

I have two 4 year olds and have not ventured into the woods much the last two years. Next fall.

I've taken with prim. bow and arrow, hogs, rabbits, squirrels, and muskrats.

Have missed many deer and a few turkeys. Wife put the hex on me years ago. Going to break it soon.


I do believe in using the whole animal. Tan the skin with the brains, leg bones get used for tools, I have friends who hunt modern and supply me with deer legs for sinew and skins for rawhide. Have made a few hogskin quivers with skins. Hog skins are tough to tan.

No, I don't eat squirrel brains, gross.

I've hunted for years, moose, dear, caribou, elk. Small game including grouse, rabbit, ptarmigan, I've trapped as well and fish regularly. I use everything off the animal that I can, including hides. I don't hunt bears, wolves, or eagles and hawks.

Need to hang a stand this weekend. Found a double funnel by a stream.

Hog season starts in two weeks. May pull out the frontloader and see if I can get a nice small tender one.

[wareagle69]

i was taking a leak out on manouvers on day at benning when this small dog come running thru the bush out in the middle of nowhere turn out to be a deer, sure surprised me.

[FVR]

Yeh, they make the deer small down here. There are a few counties that have big ones, mostly because they are a mix of stocked deer from out west many, many years ago.

Hey, but nowdays you don't hunt deer that are natural. You join a club or lease, invest all that money, make fields and use special foods and minerals to make the deer and antlers grow real big, then you harvest them like corn. But only shoot the trophy deer as we need to feed our ego's.

I'm just being an arsehole.

Yeh, don't belong to clubs or leases. Just hunt what nature puts out there.

[wareagle69]

are you close to the dahlonega mtns

[FVR]

About 40 min. west. I do work up that way a few times a month.

Bunch of gunjy Rangers up there. They have the Ranger run every year through Dawsonville.

[wareagle69]

only good part of that phase was the infamous blueberry pancakes, never seen a place where i was wearing long johns in th am and sweating me arse off by noon and i lived in the deesert for a while, even texas wasn't that bad

[FVR]

I've known a few Rangers who went through training there.

Sounds like So. Cal, heater at night and AC during the day.

At 29 Stumps, man, 110 plus during the day and at night, freeze.

I hunt deer for my main meat source, I suplement w/dove, turkey, and quail I also hunt. I fish mainly catch and release but do keep some for the table. I dont hunt bear because I dont much care for the taste. I am working on a smokehouse now so I can do everything myself. If you dont process your own game I STRONGLY recomend you do so. I do go back to colorado to hunt elk but that is more of a vacation/food hunt. I would like to ty for a moose though!

[FVR]

You mean you can get others to butcher your critters? Hmmmm, that could catch on.

[wareagle69]
