Yeah, probably do, but if I shoot them then I have to gut, skin, quarter, and butcher them.
At my age that’s what I’m starting to call hard work, easier to get a good locally grown steak out of the freezer.
Stopped hunting the bigger game when I was about 55, took up mainly upland game bird hunting.
Still lots of good hiking exercise, puts meat on the table, and not all that weight to carry back to the truck.
Easier to clean to.

In the yard, it seems like you could string one up in a tree, dismember it, age what you want for steaks, and can the rest. Find some kids that need to learn these life skills and put ‘em to work. I know it can be problematic to bring people into the yard with guns. Might be a good opportunity for a young bowhunter.
