Nope. I leave it in the woods for the animals with the rest of the guts (including liver).

I probably can't eat them anymore because of Crohns Disease.
Now I do eat somethings that people would probably not eat. Like:
Groundhog
Possum
Racoon
Turtle
Snake
Goat
Etc. But that's all meat to me.
Never tried groundhog. What do they taste like? I used to check my deer rifle before the season by shooting a bunch of groundhogs, but I never tried eating one.

BTW, I have a bunch of first cousins in Stokes, grew up in G'ville.

Its practically a rituall at deer camp for me to make my famous deer stew. When the first deer arrives at camp, the heart , lungs and liver along with some back strap go straight into a pot with some veggies and simmered to a wonderfully delectuble dish. Mmmm-Mmmm. One of our guests one time said we were cannibals, but after some coercing he was moping up his second helping with bread. LOL.

Oh ya, your not a true hunter if you dont utilize the whole deer, (ya thats it ) utilize the whole deer. Skin for clothing and shoes, bones for tools, horns for weapons, teeth for jewelry, hoofs for gun racks, yep your not a true hunter.

Love the heartThe first deer shot in our camp, will have its heart and liver fried up in a pan and we all use tooth picks to eat it with, dipping it into three home made sauces. medium, hot, and volcanic.

The lungs actually cook up to a meaty consistency, much like the liver I suppose.
