wild meat vs store bought

[Hawken50]

  Best meat is what you kill and butcher yerself.A lady at work and her husband raised a steer last year.She wouldnt let him butcher it,said she couldnt eat it after raisin it.So they sold it,went to the grocery store and bought their meat.She asked me how i felt killing cows and bambi's.I told her i could be sittin at the table eatin a t-bone look out the window and watch my cattle in the field.She wouldnt talk to me for a week.....but im glad to see everybody here either eating what they kill or seeing that it gets to someone who needs it.We got too many horn hunters around here.

Don't understand those horn hunters...Brother-in-law had a tag locally here and got a big bull this year...good choice...old bull with teeth worn down to the gum line..not much fat on him and really dark meat...grinder fixed any problem with chewing it, but for good meat--give me the young small horned bull or a cow...His was a good choice acct. he needed culling before he starved.

  Was bouncin in a bar in a minin town in northern Alberta, Few "hunters just got back from the bush, were celebratin' a so called sucessful hunt, one was braggin about his new fangled scoped high power rifle and how many moose he had shot with it. I over heard and ask him how many? He puffed out his chest and said with obviously a great deal of pride " I shot Eleven Moose", I asked him "What'cha goin ta do with all that meat?" He said without a hitch and no signs that anything was amiss " I LEFT IT THERE"!!!!!. I asked him " Ya mean ya didn't tell anybody where it was or anything?" "Ya didn't keep anything?" He said " just the biggest head and a set of the best antlers" This feller was all decked out in the lastest Gortex and Nylon huntin finery, (expensive and brand new). I told all the Native boys at the other end of the bar about this. I heard they waited till he left and gave him a little tune-up. There is a reservation not to far from where this "gentleman" was huntin that could have been fed all winter on 11 moose and used everything up, and I mean everything. So when I hear the caring and common sense coming from this site, I feel alittle less angry at that gentlemen

That was an obscene waste of food and natural resources!  I admire the amount of restraint your showed personally, I don't think I could have stood there for very long and not committed assault after hearing that jackass spout off.

I agree with William!

Something I discovered back in my youth is that wild tofu tastes better than farmed tofu.

 Someone that would just kill all those moose and leave them should be brought out to the reservation and face the entire reservation while unarmed.

Dryball, my wife says I'm strange.  Her mother told her to never talk to strange men.  Go figure.

     My wife's mother told her the same thing, so we got to know each other by posting and E-mail so when we first spoke we were not strangers.

     As to store bought or wild meat, if I could I would eat only wild, what with all the hormones(?) and antibiotic's. pumped into them now days.
