Venison Workshop - Deer Processing

[Shootin'IN]

If you get a chance to go to one of these workshops do so. I just got back from the first one. I learned a great deal about how to properly field dress, process, cook & care for venison and other meat. You will learn why some hunters deer meat tastes funny & how to keep yours from getting that way.
Here is a link to times & places.

It is the best $15 I have spent! (some of them are FREE)
It would be great time for young hunters & you get to taste some good venison steaks, roasts, chili, etc.

Wish I could attend, but alas, everything is too far away from what I can see.

Oh well, ther's always YouTube!

I'm hoping my nephew will be attending. Only saw this today, so forwarding to my sister. He wants to go hunting so bad, but I'm the only adult as interested as he.

Wish they had something like this a little farther North. I would love to take my boys to something like this.

I am also going to Ft. Ben with another INGO member. I can always learn something new. I plan to try deer hunting for the first time this season. Maybe I can put these skills to work.

 

[HICKMAN]

gotta say, that was pretty cool. The boy and I had a good time and the samples at the end were wonderful.

Went to the one in Lafayette tonight. The instructors are very knowledgeable, the samples at the end are fantastic, and there is a lot of good information to be had. Haven't hunted deer before, but I feel a lot more comfortable knowing what to do with the animal after the presentation, especially as far as getting good cuts of meat.

I went to the one at Ft. Ben yesterday. I feel confident I could break a deer down now. The guys did a great job with their instructions and answered a bunch of questions. Maybe now I can stop handing Archers $110 every time I shoot a deer.

Didn't even think about there being so many other Ingo members there. Wish I would have tried to talk to more people than I did.
