Hey everyone just catching up again LOL you all chat alot, but its nice to hear about everyone else around these parts.


BL Brook As for the venison you will love it, it's our preferred meat around here or moose when we can get it, elk is also good, We'd live on it if we could, the bacon is great, along with jerky sausage, hot dogs, and hot sticks YUMMMMMMYYYYYYYYYYY

Hi all!
Got all caught up on here. Finally! Not much to say tonight. I have a dog passed out in my arms and I can't type very good. I have to back space on every word to fix it! LOL! So since I don;'t have the heart to move Aidie-wade-ie I'll catch you all tomorrow.

I've had caribou, moose, elk and venison. Just never made into bacon. I did not like caribou. Maybe it was old meat or just an old animal. I love elk. We've been eating that instead of beef. When it runs out I may buy bison until my husband shoots another elk in the fall. I will not eat anything raised in a feed lot.

Nope it wasn't old just caribou, it has a taste of it's own because of what they eat, also a rut bull will be very wild/gamey tasting..almost rancid... We eat it, though it isn't our favorite. Moose is.
We hunt but we get the good stuff from our neighbors who go on big game hunts about 3 times a year, they have been to every continent, and killed ate, and mounted everything they ever shoot.....their house is a museum of animals, so very cool........... just about every kind you can name and many I can't even pronounce the names of...... African animals mostly but some from New Zealand and Australia that are quite strange sounding as well. They have the coolest Lioness and huge!!!! plus some deer from Africa that are totally awesome!!!!!! So we get to try all kinds of unique meat.
But again Caribou is an acquired taste I'm told, it's pretty good roasted on the open fire......that's how we usually eat it. Otherwise It sure doesn't smell like anything I would normally eat...........LOL

Good evening! What a nice day--I hear tomorrow is supposed to be even better!

New Zealand and Australia that are quite strange sounding as well. They have the coolest Lioness and huge!!!!

I must confess...this disturbed me a little! I have no problems with eating animals that plentiful...but arent lions on the protected list? I hate when people (because they have $$$) can go against rules and stuff! I dont know your friend but...just sayin'
Well the girls are here to watch a movie--nighty nite! Terri O​

I was kind of thinking the same thing. Hunting for food is one thing, for tropies is another.

French Toast: Thank you. They are very spoiled here and I wish I could keep them all. But thats not realistic. I try hard to find them good homes. Sometimes at the expense of my sanity.

They are by far not rich..... he works as a fabricator in a steel mill, and she works in a t-shirt shop, they save all there money for hunting, they don't drink smoke or any other wasteful habit they grow there own food and raise there own animals, so most of the money is hard earned and most all the animals they have gotten are meat animals, but they do belong to the safari club, which is how they went to Africa, they won that trip in a drawing along with the plane fair, they did however have to come up with the hunting fee of 8 grand to hunt that lion, males were 20 thousand......... the reason they got a lioness instead. It maybe illegal to hunt them out right, but in Africa, if you know the right people and pay the price you can hunt almost anything. I don't say I condone this, but given that chance I would probably also have taken the cat.
