I didnt say it was just for the record, I think venison should be considered prime food for market and taken full advantage of, i have a road kill shank on order!

 

Ive got a 6lb rear haunch in the freezer. Going to be cooked this weekend:thumbup:

not getting into the morals of killing things, because I have done my fair share of that, but as TW says there must be wounded animals. Because that guy is such a good shot, when he misses it will not be by a foot, more like an inch. As I say, not against killing things, but not my cup of tea, and if I learnt the venison I was eating came all the way from NZ, I would push it away.

No idea on what the current price is,I had a look on the internet and it was $2.50 a Kilo late last year.When I knew a couple of shooters in Taupo,they had to get two Deer and hour to break even.

 

I don't think many operators are doing it full time.The Government will bring in Gunships when the Deer populations get too high though.

This might not be appropriate for the uk venison market but would be a wonderful way of culling chavs.
