Default Guys Who Shoot 5 Doe

I guess this question is directed at the NJ unlimited doe zone guys & PA unlimited 5D zone guys...

For those guys out there who shoot five doe a year... what do you do with all of the meat? I shot two deer this year and my freezer is full!

At least in PA you have to purchase a doe tag $9 for residents... $26 for out of staters.... for each doe.

But in NJ you just pay for your license once or permit once... and its unlimited doe whacking!

Doesn't PA have a "not so enforced" rule: the deer must be consumed by June (or something)?

It takes 4 mid sized deer to feed my family of 5 for a year (plus pheasants, turkey and fish). Anything more than that I give away to either friends or Hunters for the Hungry.

I suggest you get a bigger freezer.

Quess I'm a pig. My wife and I eat 5 deer a year. We buy no store meat. And often have deer for breakfast and deer baloney sanwiches for lunch and casseroles or meat soups for supper everyday. I dont shoot 5 ,but get road kills plus a couple we shoot .We have 3 freezers.We also raise our own veggies which is frozen. 5 deer aint nothing to eat
