EatWild Films are intended to show folks how to harvest and process wild food. Hopefully we can showcase a few adventures along the way. www.eatwild.ca
Interesting. I've always picked them when they are young. They just started sprouting here so I think I'll try harvesting some later in the grow cycle.
I hunt Blacktails (Grey Ghosts) in NW Oregon; I’ve hunted all three species in the states and Blacktails are bar none the most challenging. This gentleman’s presentation on still-hunting is spot on, but in timber and brush, you gotta move much slower and stop every 2-3 steps to break up your human cadence, I try to move like a browsing doe. Sometimes on terrain that’s particularly challenging, it takes me an hour to traverse 200 yards. The more noise I make with my 2-3 steps, the longer I wait in between while scanning and listening. I carry light binos under my chin on a short strap, no thumping, banging or snagging. It’s easier to engage them as well. I use them with a trigger stick tripod as a monopod, it steadies the scanning, gives a little leverage when traversing over logs and limbs and locks in standing shots perfectly. I travel light without a backpack; I carry my knives, kitchen trash bags and light tarp in the large hind pocket of my orange vest. I never leave home without my Beretta 96 cougar protection, it's strapped below my binos on my chest.
Howdy, Brother! I just wanted to let you know that your videos (going back at least 9 or 10 years) have been educational and very well done. The time and effort you put in is very much appreciated. Thanks and Drive-On, Cowboy! 🤠
Great vid thank you. Would it be easier to string the dear up and do this up off the ground? I know I could not be bent over like that for long. Don't have the back for it any more
you know nothing bro you tortured that dear while he is dead hhhhhhh thats not the way to skin it im sorry you need a rope to hang it befor you start doing that work
My butcher told me a very good tip he advised to use to remove the maximum amount of those hairs that always get on the meat no matter how careful you are! Use pieces of cheese cloth to rub over the meat and the hairs will stick to it! I tried his method and so far I have found no better way to get those hairs off the meat!
Outstanding teaching moment! Many thanks for posting. Trash/Garbage bags may not be a good choice, as some manufacturers impregnate their bags with insecticide, and don't note it on the packaging.
