Evil Bambi killers! Geez, just think if someone in the Long Island area did this and thinned the herds in that area. But, fewer and fewer hunters. Guess they prefer vehicle deer encounters. Anyone got numbers for that area?

If you add enough wine to any meat, it’s pretty tasty!

When I read the headline I thought, that’s a lot of meat, but was thinking the scope was the USA. But just Missouri? Awesome.

Tofu too, I suppose.

Wonder if the muzzies at the food bank complained about the meat? Hadn’t been tortured enough..

When I saw the headline, I thought they meant Hunter Biden and I was really confused.

Obviously it isn’t the food that’s scarce. What’s scarce is the will to get off their asses and go get it.

If they’re hunting black angus beef cattle, even better

Michigan hunters kill a crap-ton of deer every deer and would donate more if not for the screwy rules in place here.

You can’t butcher a deer and give it to food banks. You have to pay a butcher to process the deer and then distribute to food banks.

It costs a small fortune and the hunter that donated the deer has to pay for all of it!

So the parents bring home the venison from the food banks. But can they get their kids to eat Bambi? Or worse yet, Bambi’s mother?

My deer hunter coworkers say that venison from unstressed deer killed from deer stands tastes far better than meat from deer killed in dog drives. When brought down, driven deer are covered with sweat and pumped full of adrenalin. They say this results in that “gamey” taste.

But dog drives are civilized compared to the barbaric animal torture of “halal” slaughter.

That takes a different kind of hunting permit.

Apply in Ukraine.....

You need a basic shotgun and ammo, you need a hunting license, you need a place to hunt, you need transportation to get there, you need to pay the meat packer to butcher and wrap it for you and you need a place to store it.

Minnium of $500.00

Since tofu is absolutely TASTELESS wine WOULD be an improvement.

Sister in Law lives in North West New Jersey.
I’ve been there visiting from Florida when bears and multitudes of deer are there ALL the time.
NO hunting, no guns. Diseased deer as a result of no thinning of the herds

I stop shooting bucks 20 years ago and now just harvest doe. Don't need any marinade, it is delicious cooked {very rare} in butter and onions and eaten over potato perogies.

Heaven.

Yup. I love deer hunting but it ain’t cheap and it sure as heck ain’t easy.

No worries about the wasting disease that’s affecting deer in many states?
