'HOW BOUT DAT PIGSKIN HUH? BOY THEY SURE CAN THROW A FOOTBALL'
venison isn't really sold in the US markets, but there are a few in rural hunter-friendly areas
Im originally from southern california, now living in kentucky. Im not a hunter and dont care to, its just not something that interests me. Like others have already stated its awesome when my neighbor will bring over some venison but hunting just isnt my bag.
Local men out here cant deal with that answer, everyone out here is such an avid hunter and gun enthusiast. Its great to see the bewildered looks on the locals faces when I say I dont hunt or own a gun. They simply can not comprehend a man not being into those things.
I hear you're pretty good a hunting mysterious tapeworms on your living room floor.
Hunting sounds cool, until you realize you just drive somewhere, get out of the truck and shoot a <insert animal here>. Then you go finish it off, gut it, and haul it off for meat/trophy processing. I don't regret doing it but it's not for me. I can fish too, but would only use these skills again for survival purposes. With modern equipment, there is minimal challenge so it's pretty fucking pointless. Think of it as the easiest 20 minute shmup you can imagine, with hours of setup and cleanup.
Wut? That sounds like something a person that's never hunted would say, a lot of people go an entire season not bagging a single deer. It's certainly nothing like what you just described.
Hunting defenseless animals for sport isn't really my thing. Now if you want to take down a dear or something with a buck knife, have at it.
You have to undercook it. By like... A lot. Personally I prefer bison to venison for wild game. Bit more melty fat rendering in the meat to make it juicierThe meat is mostly dreadful. There's a reason deer sausage is 80% pork.
I wouldn't want a venison burger without filler. It is still meat, so it works in things like chili.
Backstrap is still damn tasty, and I don't know why. Maybe it has more fat content or it's less vascular? Never bothered to research it.
Can you not just buy venison from the shop?

I had an antelope tag in Wyoming. It was exactly as I described. I went along with an experienced hunter. Not saying all hunting is like that, but that was how it was for me. Maybe I could have made it more challenging by using a bow or Stallone's approach in First Blood.

Lol nice
My dad hunts, he actually got 3 deer last weekend. I personally have zero interest in hunting.... Im pretty sure he thinks Im a pussy for not.
Also all of you ragging on how bad deer meat tastes have probably only ever had meat from a buck. I had some fresh liver from a doe that a buddy of mine shot and it was the best liver I have ever had in my life.
I knew someone who'd hunt squirrel.
I'd never eat squirrel.
Not a fan of killing for sport unless you're hunting a bear with just a knife, then it's real sport
If you hunt and eat what you hunt that's cool but killing a bear/deer/whatever from a safe distance with a gun, I just don't get it. Not hating, but I find it absurd.
