Before I continue let me throw this out there: The people I have meet that are the most educated and respectful of wildlife and the earth that God gave us, are hunters. I am not talking about the hillbilly's who tie the dead animals to the hood of the car. I mean real hunters. There is a time when hunting is necessary. It's not something I personally would enjoy. However I would like to learn to shoot a compound bow. I don't have the heart to kill something (except when I was pregnant I did come close-the lady who stole my wallet) but for some people that 's something that doesn't bother them and that's fine with me. (and Jesus was not a vegitarian-he was a Jew-lamb is quite yummy)
All that said.....
Friday after work Brancent went hunting with his dad Gene and his nephew Drake. He has not been able to go hunting in a long time and was quite nervous. They spent the night in Shamrock and planned to hunt Saturday morning then head back to Amarillo. Brancent said he woke up at 3:30 a.m. and couldn't go back to sleep because he was so excited. Thank goodness for ESPN to help pass the time. I was at my parents house getting ready to help my mom paint her basement when I got a text message at 8:08 a.m. "I shot a buck!!" This was his first buck and he is extremely proud as he should be. So Deer jerky looks to be in our future if anyone has good recipies to share :)
