I'm a hunter who shoots 1 or 2 deer for the freezer and donates 2-3 deer to the Farmers and Hunters Feeding the Hungry (FHFH)
http://www.fhfh.org/Home.asp. I used to give deer to friends and families who needed it and they would pay the processing fee. Seems the 2 states I hunt in decided that was considered turning a profit(not just me but everyone) so that's illegal now. The FHFH is a great organization and deserving of support.
I'm not actually a type of hunter as much as a "I want a new challenge for myself" hunter. I enjoy making different weapons shoot accurately and using them to hunt.
I have shot deer with 3 different recurve bows, 4 different compound bows, 12 ga. smooth bore shotgun, 12 ga. scoped rifled barrel, and a 20 ga. pump with rifled barrel and open sights. I've harvested deer with a sidelock TC Renegade, 3 different model cva mls, a Savage ml(which is my main long gun now) and I most recently shot a doe with a TC encore 50 cal. ml pistol.
I have used fiberglass arrows, aluminum arrows, tested just about every slug from winchester to Lightfield to Hornady and Federal Barnes. I've tested and shot most sabot combination's, Barnes, TC, Hornady XTP's, Harvester PT gold, Dead Center Duplex sabots to name some.
After getting that doe with the ML pistol last year I bought a TC 44 mag barrel, an MGM 44 mag with closeable brake, a Ruger SRH 44 mag, and a New Model Blackhawk 357. I now hand load my ammunition. I can't shoot a bow any longer due to elbow, shoulder, neck problems. So handgun hunting is my new challenge and I would like to get a deer with each of these weapons.
I will harvest anything big enough to donate or use myself but I will not harvest fawns, button bucks or mothers with spotted fawns.
