not everyone does, and not everyone knows how to cook it. but it costs the price of a rifle cartridge and a hunting permit...
That could be it. It was probably twelve hours between kill and fridge.
i wouldn't want to eat it every day, myself, but a couple of times a month would be ok, and would stretch out the budget
Me, I grew up suburban. All our meat came from the store.
The only venison I like is from a tiny buck called a duiker (translates to diver/jumper)... They are omnivores and eat anything from plants to frogs and lizards.
I have IBS or something like it and can't eat beef unless it's grass fed. Venison or moose is AOK. Eat a lot of chicken around here and wish seafood was cheaper. Not a fan of factory raised pork. Horrible shit.
That sucker is ugly enough to not raise guilt feeling when you pull the trigger. I have an old .303 but have never gone hunting for bigger game. Nailed a lot of big salmon tho and used to fill a small chest freezer with coho every fall when I still lived in the Fraser Valley in BC.The only venison I like is from a tiny buck called a duiker (translates to diver/jumper)...

As for no heat winter... my siamese twin is a hot water bottle.
Or as cheaply. 
An OG chemist at an old workplace once complained bitterly about American pork. He said the steroids fed to the pigs give the meat a rankness. European pork did not get the hormone and wasn’t rank, as per his report. I don’t have his sensitivity.I have IBS or something like it and can't eat beef unless it's grass fed.

you pretty much shoot them with a .22. Not much bigger than a small dogThat sucker is ugly enough to not raise guilt feeling when you pull the trigger.

Was hoping to go out this October but doesn't look like it. Can't make that 20 hour drive as easy as I used to.
I used to deliver propane to pig barns around here and one place left a carcass outside then a week later I was back and it was untouched. When the crows, magpies and coyotes won't eat a free pig you know you shouldn't be eating it either. And this was a Canadian pig. Our neighbour's daughter got a job at one of those places shortly after it opened up. Bought a brand new pair of work boots then after a couple weeks couldn't stand it no more so she quit. Ended up burning the boots because they stunk so bad and even 6 months sitting outside under cover couldn't bring them in the house. Gross!
My cousin used to hunt whitetail deer with a .22 but he could put it right in the eye at 50yds. Total bushman to this day. Sold his orchard not long ago. He had 2 sections on the bank of the Columbia river on the Washington side about 50 miles up from Portland and his dad had 20 acres or so on the Oregon side so they would shoot across in their fancy bass boats to visit. 2 hours to drive.
Good for you.
Avg. Our women have rights and we didn't have widespread slavery..so not as bad as some id suggest and worse than others. Please keep your MAGA.
thousand of cows just died in Kansas and Iowa a month or two ago, from the extreme heat...that ain't gonna bring prices down any time soon.
