It is much more personal and you tend to have much more respect for the animal when you are the one taking it and butchering it.
Its the ones that buy the nice sanitary package and eat it that never really appreciate what they are eating.
Very true! I'm glad I'm not the only one who felt that way about it.
I'm very interested in making some Jerky of some of it. Got any good recapies?
I had the Loin last night, rub it down with Olive Oil and sprinkle heavy with Basil and Thyme... Searved over wild rice and a cold basil pasta salad on the side... Good eats!

Yes there is a thrill to it, whether it is catching a fish, gigging a frog, flushing a quail or dropping a 14 point buck (you don't drop bambi, he's too small), there is a thrill to it. It cannot be denied, but without respect for the animal it isn't all that. Without respect, it becomes something less.

How can you have respect for anything that you refer to in this way?
The thrill of the kill? I'm missing something here. I don't see any inkling of respect.
