[QUOTE="KDM, post: 30241, member: 314"] Interesting point of view Wild. I'm one of those people who drive you nuts. There are only 3 people in my household. Myself, my wife, and our daughter. If I shoot one elk, I'll have more meat than the 3 of us can eat in a year. I hunt everything with a season in ND, Deer in MN, and Elk/Deer in MT most years. This year I'm adding antelope in MT and SD and deer in SD. Add into the mix that I fish 5 times a week, give'r take a day. I processed 650 lbs of venison for sausage and ground meat this year with 6 buddies. You should just about be in a straight jacket right now. Let me add to this that my wife and daughter both hunt deer as well and my daughter loves to goose hunt. Are you bat shit crazy about now?? All of my hunting and that of my family is done legally and within the confines of each states regulations and wildlife management strategies. I take home lots and lots of wild game every year that my small family can't possibly consume. However, I can assure you that not one scrap of meat is wasted.
