Description

Learning to Hunt Alone is Hard
In this episode of Homesteady, we discussed learning to hunt, and how many mistakes one can make when learning without a mentor.
Aust learned to hunt by trial and error for his first few years, spooking many a deer his first year.
One November afternoon, after still hunting for the good part of the morning, Aust sat down for lunch, making a rookie move of sitting on his butt, when suddenly a big buck arrived, catching him unprepared and off guard.
Lessons learned the hard way finally brought Aust to a point where now he harvests multiple deer each year, filling his freezers.
Venison is awesome
Deer hunting is challenging, but the rewards are great. Venison is a flavor filled meat, with a wide range of uses.
One deer can provide a hunter with

Steaks
Chops
Roasts
Sausage
Burger

And when prepared right, venison can pass even the most anti hunters palate.

Have you ever dreamt of starting a farm? Do you picture living on a homestead, gardening and raising chickens? Do you love foraging for wild edibles? Do you spent the fall season, in the crisp autumn wood hunting for wild game? Is your perfect morning spent drifting downriver, fishing for the night's dinner? Homesteady is a show that focuses on living a more sustainable life. We talk about all the ways a modern Homesteader can put food on the table, from the fields, streams, gardens and woodlands. Our roads may be rocky, but with the right skills and knowledge we can make Homesteady.
