2 years ago my Nephew talked me into hunting Deer and Wild Turkey which I thank him for doing, I enjoy it more than anything I've ever done in the outdoors. I've fished since I was 13 but hunting with a Bow is my first passion now. First it gets you into a total different state of mind and focus which for me touches a deep cord,it seems we were made to hunt or gather from the ground and field. The Whitetail Deer is an amazing animal that challenges you to the core as you seek to outwit them in their habitat which I find very gratifing as success is acheived. As a source of food I could live off the deer meat and never need beef or pork again,I can't say that for Wild Turkey but the Deer is excellent. Sharing a hunt with family or friends is very rewarding,taking a young hunter out is a great thrill that I have come to enjoy almost as much as my own hunts. I think it's a good and proven way to practice conservation and keep the species healthy and growing,while limiting the damage done due to collisions resulting in death and suffering for humans and the animals as well. Hunting has a possitive impact upon all involved when done responsibly and is something I hope only improves as we learn more about the animals and how best to govern this great resource. I have my Deer processed by a local family who has done it for years,I'm not sure what the state requires for disposing of the carcass but I know that they use all they can and follow state regulations on the rest.
