    Deer hanger

    When I've finished the field dressing I prefer to hose out the cavity thoroughly. After that mine go to a processor.

    Deer hanger

    I used to hang deer with a big tree limb, rope and my jeep. All right in the backyard where the garden hose is handy. But that tree died and we had it taken out last fall. I haven't used anything like your link shows, but I might be in the market for one now. For sure need to get something figured out and I insist that it be someplace with water.
  8. They are a lot harder to skin than any squirrel I ever cleaned. And they need pressure cooker treatment just like a big squirrel.
  9. Me neither. They get the gun.
  10. They jump when startled. Gets a lot of them killed when they would otherwise be fine when a car or truck drives over them.
  11. I can't throw a curve ball anymore. And I never could hit one. Which was the end of an otherwise promising career as a baseball player. At the tender age of 14. At my age, it's a lot more convenient to talk about the things I can't do anymore than the things I still can.
  12. I hope you enjoyed it.🤢
  13. It is absolutely certain for sure possible. Webster did the meter base. I wired in the receptacle. Pretty well fail safe, even for a hillbilly like me. That wing ding under the meter is a whole house surge protector. Which is a joke, but again, all I had to do was ask. None of the local power companies do those anymore. They don't work very well and the companies selling and warranteeing them are GONE.
  14. I'm going to have to be really really hungry before I ever learn what a possum or an armadillo taste like.
  15. I recommend a young skunk over any coon or possum ever hatched. And then once it's been cleaned and cooked, snagged in outlet 3 has a dinner invitation. They are kind of like a cat, but more tender. Or so I've heard.
  16. We're on Webster Electric Co-op. They put in a new meter base for me that has a manual transfer switch between line power and generator power. All I had to do was ask, don't think it cost anything over the usual electric bill. Apparently they care about their line crews. Which is an understatement. Every power company I've ever been associated with has been very, very safety conscious. For their crews and their customers. All it takes is paying a little bit of attention and some common sense.
  17. You mean I can't just plug a generator into the dryer outlet and call it good?

    And a lot of mashed potatoes and a lot of rib meat.😎

    Lovey said mashed and what lovey wants, lovey gets. I expect I'll enjoy those few bites as though I'd eaten hearty.🎯
  20. Any decent whole home generator does an auto start and transfer on it's own. Usually one time per month. Run on load for about 30 minutes. Keeps fuel fresher in the engine, dries out the windings, confirms the transfer solenoids work, all that kind of silly stuff.

    I thought they were a gimmick and then started thinking about how well stuff I bought that was vac sealed did in the freezer. Not the first time I've been wrong. With any luck though, it might be the last.
  22. Diesel draws water. Be sure to have a good fuel/water separator in the line before fuel pump or injectors. And drain/change that bulk tank every year. Or you will wish you had. From a person who's got a fair amount of experience with diesel fired generators, from small to run a sewer plant, to large to run Big Cedar Lodge.

    Heart tartare? I've always characterized as a great steak. Pure muscle. I have an elk heart and half of a second one frozen right now. I'll give that a whirl, trust me. BTW, I bet you already have a vacuum sealer. If you don't, get one. I didn't but got one for the elk. Super useful.

    Looks and sounds great. I wish the person I share my life with liked more wild game in her diet. She has yet to eat an elk burger which as I've said, is no doubt the best burger I have ever had.
