Did you drink water out of a muddy horse track too? Most Texans claim they have.Some people do hunt for meat and sometimes it is more economical to do so than purchasing meat at a store.
3 different times in my life I have even eaten a road killed deer and was happy to have it. One time I ate a deer that I saw a coyote kill and leave.

I threw the doe I hit in the back of the truck on my way to help haul out a couple cow elk.Some people do hunt for meat and sometimes it is more economical to do so than purchasing meat at a store.

And I shake my head every time I hear someone say, "I needed another set of antlers on my wall"! And how much did you pay for those antlers? Counting license and application fees for 15-25 years, the LE/Prem LE/OIL tag, your weapon, the guide fees and tips, the taxidermist fees and shipping costs for the mount as well as your costs to get to the hunting spot and back AND your time off work?You Forgot One Tri!

Oh, you DIY'ed it? Good for you, then all you have to count besides the same license and tag fees, the weapon, the cost of getting to and from the hunting spot, your time off work and the taxidermist fees, is your truck, the ATV and trailer, the binoculars, the spotting scope, the gas for 10 or so scouting trips, your camping gear, field dressing gear, coolers, ice and butchering costs (You have to do something with the meat! ) And, finally, you'll have to go to the store to buy meat afterall.

?It does start to look like the atheists just like arguing with the people who aren't. They kind of seem like the vegans of the spiritual community.

So happy to see JB that you sir are in the minority of those on MM. Most folks I run into in the woods respect and acknowledge His creation. He actually said that we will see Him in His creation. Praying that happens for you and SS. He is real ....He loves you and if you make the Decision to follow Him , He will change your life forever as He did for me in 1997.Amen, my time in the woods is special. I've had amazing time with the Lord as I am silent enjoying His creation. He said He will give us the desires of our hearts, He knows my heart, Super blessed right now as I am in AZ scouting new country. God is So Good.

Bro, I was not raised in a Christian home, wasn't taught what the gospel meant. I was 37 years old when He moved in my life.I praise Him for His mercy and grace when He chose to reveal Himself to me. Transformation in my life !!!! Thank you JesusI bet that little boy in 1997 has a different view point than you.

And you never ever add up what a trophy will cost you in the finished form! But I guarantee that my price per pound of wild meat is a whole lot less than your price per pound of antlers or wild meat.Hey efa?
You Ever Heard Me Say I Got My Wild Game Meat For .69 cents a Pound?
You'd Have To Move The decimal Point A Few Places!
I've Said This All My Life:
You NEVER F'N EVER Add Up What A PISSCUTTER Will Cost You In The Finished Form!
And you never ever add up what a trophy will cost you in the finished form! But I guarantee that my price per pound of wild meat is a whole lot less than your price per pound of antlers or wild meat.
This year I drew zero (0) big game tags out of 6 applications (buck deer, moose, antlerless) and my grandson, who hunts with me, also drew zero (0) out of 7 applications, all of which I paid for. So to go hunting together, I bought 2 archery elk tags over the counter and 1 depredation doe deer tag. All of that cost me $190. Then we made 4 trips to the neighbors farm in my camo Blazer @ 3 miles per trip (about $3). My grandson shot the doe and we drove 22 miles to drop it off at a friend's house for butchering (about $5 for gas, $0 for butchering). My grandson wanted some hamburger, but the friend didn't have a working grinder, so I bought 5 lbs of beef fat ($6) and hand-ground it at home ($0). The rifle was a Winchester 100 that I bought for $450 ($450 divided by 10 years=$45 this year) and refurbished and re-blued and gave it to my grandson for an early Christmas present. We ate and slept at home ($0). That adds up to about $249 to hunt the deer. I don't count my '94 Blazer ($300 plus the normal repairs and maintenance) because it's the only car I own and I would of had to buy something anyway just to get around town. I bought one car to do both!
To hunt the elk, which we didn't get, it was about 6 gallons of gas ($30), a used bow and set-up for my grandson ($45 per year), a blind ($10 per year) = $85. Add $200 for clothing, some snacks, drinks, game bags, etc. Grand total both deer & elk=about $534. Divide that by 40 lbs of deer meat=$13.35 per pound. A little pricier than Walmart, but well worth the time we spent together. Now, what's your price per pound of antlers or meat?
In other words, you're not going to tell us how much you pay for those antlers on your wall. Surprise, surprise, surprise!I've Told You A Thousand Times!
You Don't Add That Stuff Up!
AND it’s a lot healthier for you. That’s the biggest plus of eating wild game. Who knows what they put in store bought meat now.I haven't bought beef, besides a brisket to smoke, for 18 years. During that time my family has lived on elk, deer, antelope, moose, turkey and bison. My kids complain about eating dinner anywhere else because the meat tastes funny. It is true that it is expensive, but the time with family and friends is worth the cost.
Are either sex tags rainbow colored?Meat , have an either sex tag and I’ll
Shoot a cow Saturday maybe, but getting away with best friends is best.
