Way of life, I am 39 now and have been hunting with my Dad since I was 9. Now my 5 year old is about to start hunting with us next year. We start in Sept hunting doves, then squirrels in oct, deer and ducks/geese Nov, through Feb, then finish up with squirrels and rabbits. We eat it all, last year my family and friends went through six deer and two went to teh Salvation Army kitchen. About 30+/- squirrels, 20+/- ducks, and well in excess of 300 bass/ceclia or speckled trout at one fish fry per month for whole family, wifes side and at least 30 fish per fry, and no telling how many pounds of crawfish were boiled. I have a bumper sticker on my truck that says Squirrel its what for supper, email if you want one as I had them made. By the way we deer hunt with and without dogs when we hunt with dogs we still hunt old school deep south style on horseback. Ya'll need to move down here, the fun never stops. Knives and guns are just another part of life, just like they should be.
