Do you share?
« on: August 30, 2009, 08:36:00 PM »
I received permission to hunt and fish on a piece of land today high up in the Green Mountains. Another fellow has had sole access to this property for five years and has killed several nice bucks on it. He has never once shared any meat with the landowners wife who loves venison (he's a vegetarian). I didn't know about their parcel until this week, but have given her venison through my wife(they work at school together) for years. I was invited up to help with some blueberry picking today and to look around. After arrival I was told the place is mine to hunt alone now. WOW! They raise blueberries, bees and have an orchard(he wants me to kill a bear also as for he killed a 450# boar last year that destroyed some of his hives and he has a dislike for bears on his deck also). Look at the pics and I think you'll understand my excitement.

Like I asked, do you share? You never know when karma will bring it back around to you!

The view.

Holy cow looks like you struck it rich there!  I've never had opportunity to share with landowners as I've almost always hunted my own land, but I do share venison with others.

Great looking property!

Forgot to add that I do share. I already have a "list" of people that have asked for deer meat and or some of my deer jerky.  This year I am going to make the effort to kill extra deer for those who have asked me for meat. Why not? I love to bowhunt and doe tags (unlimited number) are only $7. The jerky never lasts very long.. LOL

Roger the fellow who owns the land use to shoot a recurve years ago and asked me to stop by his shop. One of his customers gave him an old recurve and he wants me to take a look at it because he thinks it has a twisted limb and needs a string. I told him I'd fix him up. His wife is also interested in learning to shoot a bow. I brought a 40@28 with me today but she needs lighter. She asked me to show her how to dress a deer when I kill one on their property. She is serious about learning. It just got better and better today.
