I have noticed a recent trend in several articles I have read lately. "Foodies" wanting to be more hands on when it comes to obtaining their food. They also are into buy local, shop local, etc... and killing your own meat from a nearby stretch of woods is a great way to do this. Not to mention most avoid the bland taste of artificial hormones and other items injected into farm raised meat.

One author, Georgia Pellegrini has written a book about her trip from killing her first turkey and facing the fact this might not be for her to learning to hunt. The book also has recipes and is titled Girl Hunter: Revolutionizing the Way We Eat, One Hunt at a Time

Another person I just read about on Bill Cochran's page at http://www.roanoke.com/outdoors/billcochran/wb/302389 This story is about a man who grew up as a vegetarian and taught himself to hunt deer for food. His book is called The Beginner's Guide to Hunting Deer for Food http://www.amazon.com/Beginners-Guide-H ... 703&sr=8-1

I like that we are getting new hunters in our ranks from a nontraditional group. We can always use more hunters and we should welcome them with open arms. We should be willing to help them and also to learn from them IMO.

I know me an my wife live off deer meat all winter until we run out, an the way it's looking we won't be having much deer meat for supper, all i can say is i'm a pretty good fisherman so we will be eating more seafood this year. I'll eat a deer pot roast over a beef roast any day of the week.

it's always good to see fresh blood from a different train of thought
