Hi guys,

I'm going out hunting for my first time this fall (well I was out lots as a kid with my Dad and Uncle... but that was 20+ years ago), hopeing to fill the freezer (deer and/or moose) and was just wondering what the majority does with the meat. What precentage do you make into sausage or jerky? what precentage goes to roastsand steaks? anyone make ground venicin? what else do you do with the meat? is there perticular cuts that are good for one thing but not so good for another? how many of you do all the butchering yourself, how many pay a meat shop? are there any good websites related to butchering game?

I hope that's not to many questions at once

I know you all have your opinions... Im interested to hear them all!

Thanks
