    I may be on outlier here, but I'd start with goats. It can be a great confidence booster to shoot your first animal, any animal. You'll pick up the basics of bush stalking and dressing/butchering a goat isn't much different from a deer, so you'll learn some useful skills along the way. Young goats aren't bad to eat at all. I don't know your area, but I'm guessing there are plenty of goats accessible to you. Check on the DOC website.
