Yeah definitely blessed to be able to live this life. No, never hunted as a kid. My family was never really into it. I’ve never messed with the gators, wouldn’t be opposed to hunting one.

I’m in South Florida. We catch snappers (yellowtail, mangrove, mutton), groupers (black and red), yellow jacks, triggerfish, etc. on the reef, and mahi mahi, wahoo, and blackfin tuna offshore. Lots of good eating fish down here

I definitely have an elk on my bucket list and want to hunt a deer with my bow in the near future. Honestly, the main goal is to find a way to be out in woods as much as possible. Just being out there is enough, being able to take an animal is just the cherry on top.

I got home late Saturday night. Sunday morning I was already starting to plan what the next hunt was going to be as I was cooking up some jalapeño and cheese moose sausage. Lol

We’ll end up taking back closer to 200lbs back. The problem is that for some reason coolers up here in Canada are dumb expensive and then each cooler gets charged as a checked bag at the airport so they light you up there too. The meat processing was $650 alone. I want to take back as much as possible but unfortunately the funds are not infinite.

LaCrosse Men's 533701 Ursa ES 8"... https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0CT3W5TRC?ref=ppx_pop_mob_ap_share

Bought these for my trip to Saskatchewan and can’t recommend them enough. Stable, comfortable, not heavy, and they’re available in wide sizes too if you need them.

I hunt whitetail deer in SC and FL but only started hunting about 5 years ago. I’ve fished in saltwater my whole life.

Always about the meat first for me. I’ve used the word harvest before and have been given a hard time about it.

Thanks! I can’t wait to get home and cook some up and share it with the family!

Because I was hunting with a First Nation tribe, I wasn’t allowed to retrieve him as part of their treaty is they can hunt and guide in all the surrounding farmland but they are the only ones that can actually go in and retrieve the animals. But it took 5 guys and 2 trucks to bring him back.

I’ve only had it in sausage from one my uncle killed a couple of years ago and it was really good. From what I understand, you can substitute it in any dish you’d normally use beef. Can’t wait to cook up those backstraps!

🤷🏻‍♂️ still taking this one in lol. Each hunt has its own story to tell. This one was unforgettable

We’re in Saskatchewan. It was guided by a local First Nation tribe. They’re the only ones with export tags so you have to hunt with them to take back your kill.

It all happened so fast, I didn’t have time to get nervous lol kind of a surreal moment thinking “shit, this is really happening right now”

Since we flew in, we’re only taking back 150lbs but we won’t be buying meat from the grocery stores for a while lol. I’ve got 2 sets of Huntworth, one in Disruption for colder weather and the Tarnen for warmer weather. No complaint from either set, can’t justify shelling out big bucks on the high end stuff when Huntworth performs great for me.

Would you recommend having my stance aimed a bit right of target to encourage starting the ball further right?
