    Meat for the freezer

    With our Son (Deereman) and families visit from Canada closing in fast I needed to refill the freezer. Last weekend I managed to get a crack at a nice hind at 387 yards with my Tikka 300 Win Mag and Viper HS. It her a bit far back and she managed about 100 yards on a downhill run. My brother-in law had a good afternoon as well knocking over a 90 odd pound Boar.
    This Saturday I managed another big Hind at 210 yards, this old girl went straight down. This animal I have swapped for a hogget for the BBQ when the son's over as he is quite keen on tasty mutton.
    Today I spent a fair bit of it turning all the muscle groups into steak off last weekends hind and cooking up a feed tonight. Venison back and fillet steak, mashed spud, cauliflower and Broccoli, with a little cheese sauce. Very tender and tasty.Name: P1020868.jpg Views: 450 Size: 1.02 MBName: Mangone Hind 300 Win Mag Oct 2016.jpg Views: 470 Size: 972.5 KBName: P1020876.jpg Views: 422 Size: 724.9 KB
    The Son will be here in about 14 days so we will be busy hunting and fishing and doing a few touristy type things can't wait should be a lot of fun.

    Marinate in mild mustard and garlic, add an egg and stir well then bread crumb and pan fry in oil, don't over do, just till blood comes through then turn. So long as the meat has matured 5-7 days and you get most of the gristle off it is very tender and tasty.

    Well done mooseman.
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Well done
    All those with dogs waiting no longer fear death. Those with many dogs waiting even welcome it in it's time.

    Lovely grub, Mooseman. Good score.
    Used to be a fine wine - now I'm vinegar.

    Yes it's hard to beat a nice feed of venison especially tender venison. I thought I would add this picture to, I took it just after shooting the deer on Saturday. A shower of rain came through then the sun came out and created a double rainbow, Name: Double Rainbow Matahina.jpg Views: 228 Size: 693.8 KBpretty cool I thought
