THE BEGINNER'S GUIDE TO HUNTING DEER FOR FOOD

THE BEGINNER'S GUIDE TO HUNTING DEER FOR FOOD Hunting deer is the most inexpensive, environmentally friendly way to acquire organic, grass-fed meat. Even if youve never held a gun before, author Jackson Landers can show you how to supplement your food supply with venison taken near your home. He addresses everything a new hunter needs to know: how to choose the correct rifle and ammunition, how to hunt effectively and safely, and what to do if something goes wrong. He includes chapters on field dressing and butchering after the kill, recipes for using the meat, and a chapter on the politics and psychology of hunting. About the Author:Jackson Landers was born into a vegetarian household and never tasted a cheeseburger until age ten. As an animal lover, his desire to avoid factory-farmed meat led him to take up hunting as an adult. He teaches classes and workshops on locavore hunting and home butchering. He lives in Keswick, Virginia. ISBN: 1-60342-728-7 publish date: 07/31/2011
