Thread: Getting back to living off the land.....

Really enjoy this thread and love a bit of goat meat and go goat hunting regularly always have some in the freezer for a nice stew or curry. I find it more mild than most venison.
We are very picky about the ones that come home with us though, younger nannies generally. Older nannies go to the dog as it can be a bit tough/dry. Billies, almost without exception are left on the hill.
Have shot some goat off spring pasture last year that was as fatty as any lamb and was excellent eating.
We've been trying to eat more wild game lately and the freezer is full of goat, rabbit, hare, and venison. I have recently become a bit fond of hare as a meat after being put off from it for a few years.

Freezer even has a drawer of possum hind legs, which I give to a work mate for their dogs. Takes no time to whip the back legs off and throwing them into a bucket as I'm going around shooting them.
I would feed it to our dog but he has regular supply of goat and I don't like the smell of possum which stays on your hands after having to skin them.
