Default Indian Hunting Practices

I've often wondered what the Indians did after they killed their prey I've heard they say a pray and blow into the deers nose. Can anyone elaborate on this?

I suppose it would depend on the tribe? On the Redhawk Outdoors television show they say a prayer in their native language and blow in each of the deer's nostrals.
Ted Nugent spoke of his first buffalo hunt with native americans, he said they prayed and burnt sweet grass. I've also heard of them burning sage.
Thomas Stetson wrote a book and somewhere in it he talked about hanging the deer's pelvic bone from a tree and putting red ribbons on it.

Yes, this is a practice. And was part of a recent disscussion and part of a post I submitted.

Giving thanks to God for your harvest.

I'll bump it up so you can read it.

Happy Hunting!

LB42,

I can't bump it due to it being, locked. It's on page four. Look for the post from, Texastracker, on page two of that topic.
