Ben , if that is this year's bull elk, I will put my " dibbs' in for a little hunk of back strap off that beauty.!!!

Nice way to feed that awesome family also. Many years my family of 3 kids lived on wild game. Got to the point beef tasted too 'tallow", if that is the word I am searching for

ride on, gale

Yep, got it on Monday while fishing

. I know what you're saying, we don't buy any meat either. 100% organic, free range and lean, you can't beat wild meat. Feel free to come and grab your portion whenever.

Yeah sorry. I actually have been really busy; all those pics were from a brief Sunday night/Monday interlude.

Mercenary · 09-21-2012, 06:03 AM

I know how this is going to sound....so try and take it with a grain of salt. I cannot stomach wild game at all. I chalk it up to eating store bought meat all my life. Elk, Moose, Bison.....I just can't do it.

I have relatives that hunt and who've tried to pass off moose meat as beef during family get togethers and whatnot....no matter how the meal was prepared....I could always tell......and I didn't eat it.

It's too bad really....39 years old and a seriously picky eater....still....

HELLS BElls Merc, you have at least 50 more years to change , well a little any how!!!

Awesome RR, just looked through all the pretty pictures again today.

My son and I have just relocated to the south peace area this month, currently bike-less

, but can't wait to explore the country side further come spring on 2 wheels. And hopefully follow some of your tracks - bought the same 'GPS' as you last week. Does my heart good to see that not all back road exploring done in the peace country is not via truck mounted 4 wheeled ATV's. Nothing against ATV's at all, just 2 wheels are 2 wheels.

Also a driver of RHD vehicles for the last 11 years, though the last 5 were in Thailand, a fisherman and a wanna be hunter one day soon. Though I'll admit that a Safari is in my future.

Thanks for the inspiration Ben.

You need to stop eating for a week and then try it. Not criticising but you're picky because your body doesn't really know true hunger and has been conditioned to limited acceptable tastes.

It's not that you have to be starving to eat game, you just have to reset your system.

Also game should be prepared and cooked correctly - not in the same way as bland supermarket beef.

Exactly how I got over not enjoying river fish....now it's all I think about. Can't wait to taste the venison I bring home this fall, it's hard teaching yourself to hunt and fish without a mentor and in a major city. Wish I lived in the boonies.

Mercenary · 09-22-2012, 08:49 AM

Well...when the world wide apocalypse comes then I'll reset my system to eat wild game. Till then I'll stick to my BBQ steaks thanks!
