The Harvest

The whole point to our South End hunting trip was to bring meat back for the freezer.  And in this regard we were wildly successful.  We harvested 5 fat deer and ended up with over 200 pounds of packaged meat in the freezer.  That is a lot of meat, and it took almost 2 days to cut up and package all the meat.

The deer where we went were all big and they were certainly abundant, but they did not have big antlers.  In years past we have been places where the deer had bigger antlers.  What was amazing about where we were this year is that the deer were so easy to find and were practically tame.  I do not think anyone had ever hunted them before.
