Do you have a post-harvest ritual? What it is?
Do you cheers with your favorite beverage after the harvest or pack out? What’s the drink of choice?
And post it on as many social media sites as possible.Take the blind fold off the deer, remove ear tag, pick up the apples and then take some badass photos.
DITTO on each and every word Buckhorn wrote. ??The first thing I do at the kill is get down on my knees and thank and praise God for the blessings he has given me.The Opportunity to hunt, the sacrifice of the animal, and thanks for all his creations.
Then I am on cloud nine while doing the field dressing and the pack out.
Once back at camp then I will barbecue up a good meal and continue the celebration and the thankfulness.I share the pics and the stories with family and friends and the memories will live on forever.

X2?Give thanks for the animal followed with a swig of good whiskey from my flask with all those around me.
I have a kinda weird thing that I have to be the first to touch the animal. Not sure where it came from. But my kids have picked up on it a bit.
Just something about (most likely) being the first person to lay hands on that animal.
When I watch a hunting show and the guides run up and grab the antlers and move the animal I think how mad I'd be, haha.

There's something about having someone else there to enjoy it with too.And I'd just as soon be alone when I do it....
I can totally relate to that. ??I have a kinda weird thing that I have to be the first to touch the animal. Not sure where it came from. But my kids have picked up on it a bit.
