Holy of Holies

I think this is where someone asks.

Do you think he's a Shooter?   

[boneaddict]

Yep, I think Id shoot him.

Pretty buck. 

[KFhunter]

I wouldn't shoot him.  Last time I shot a swollen neck 4pt I had a heck of a time getting it ate. I think it irresponsible to knock down a nice buck and do it a disservice by letting it freezer burn in the bottom of a deep freeze not getting ate then finally tossed out with the trash.  I got it ate, but I heard some complaining.  Did a lot of 50/50 burgers. 


I'm working on changing that, I've got a cold smoker now and I'm fixing to build a curing chamber, so now I can ferment meat and make stuff so tasty even a swollen neck stinky old buck will get ate, until then I'll shoot them early, and younger, so they'll get ate properly.

I agree with you. But a lot of times the smaller bucks are the stinkiest. If I get a rutty buck I make it all into summer sausage or prop sticks. Add enough pork and seasoning to disguise the rutt taste
