Hunting Thread

[Entropyfx]

Figured we would start a general thread for the year. Post up your deer, birds, whatever.

 

[Entropyfx]

I'll start it too.

Had a great goose opener, 11 man limit of 22 geese (Couple guys left early). Going back out tomorrow.

Nice shoot👍🏻

Great harvest. Nice job

Of all the different types of hunts and game, goose hunts are, to me, some of the most "fun". There is just so much camaraderie. Hanging out BSing with your friends all the while watching for flocks. Good times !!!

Smoked goose breast to gnaw on with a cold beer while telling lies, I mean stories, about your hunting / fishing trips.

I used to goose and duck hunt alot before I got into deer hunting. However I haven't shot at a goose or duck in years.

It's a shame too because here on the eastern shore the sky's are full of them.

Did some dove hunting so far this year. This was between me and a buddy.

Shot another 6 man limit today with 12 birds, and added my second bad to the lanyard.

Nice job. What do you do with the meat? I've never been a fan of goose. I just breast them out and turn it all into pepper sticks. If you have a favorite way to prepare it, I'm all ears.

I also just breast them out. Trick is to soak them in buttermilk 12-24 hours, then brine for another 12-24. Takes the blood out and really improves taste. I regularly make goose chilli, its perfect. Just finely cube it. Goose fajitas aren't bad either. The second batch today I am going to smoke this week, experiment a bit.

[Mattsn]

Awesome. Love seeing the kids out learning the skills.

 

[WhiteWolf]

I'm glad she's out of her princess phase. LOL.

I wish I started out that young. My dad wasn't and still isn't a hunter
