took my 3 grown sons up with me to the hunting camp my friend owns. Opening day I stayed down in the cabin as they went up the hill(too much for these old legs).

by 9:30AM they came down with 2 does and a small buck. Took the buck down to the local butcher/taxidermy man. Paid the butcher to have the one deer butchered for my friend the owner of the property and left. the deer stacked out in front of the place looked like this fine gaggle of deer you post...

we butcher our own deer and with the help of my boys we set up an assembly line in the garage to reduce the 2 big does into mostly roasts, that are cut again, later, into steaks, or chopmeat or stews when we use them. I especially like charcoal grilling the steaks

I'm thinking about taking up turkey hunting. Its hard to believe they were virtually extinct around here 30 years ago.
