Countdown to Saturday

[damore81]

lol, I thought some of my guys were bad going out for only 3 hours! hahahah

Yea I hear what you mean.

Yeah most of the guys I hunt with are older than me so they have slowed down a bit. Plus we have a opening weekend tradition that we slaughter a pig and then have a pig roast so they are all more excited about that lol. I dont mind because that leaves the entire property to me!

Say What??? Send me your address of camp..lol

It seems more people are excited over killing a pig and having a pig roast than actually hunting lmao!

[steve863]

Wow, that pig slaughter does sound interesting. Do you let the guys who didn't get a shot at a deer shoot the pig with their deer rifles? A kill is a kill after all! LOL

[damore81]

lol. No actually we dont shoot the pig. It is slaughtered by knife and the oldest member of our crew gets the honor! Bit of an old school Italian tradition.

Only 40 hours left than in the woods i will be.The only thing left to do is relax watch some tv and take a nap.

What time should we be there for the feast?

[Pygmy]

Opening day of gun season....Nothing quite like it...

I have been in the woods at daylight on opening day every year since 1965. Even the years when I was in the Navy, I managed to get leave for the first week of deer season.

Good luck to everyone, and hunt safely.

[steve863]

Damn, you Italians are one step above barbarians! Just kidding, I better be actually! LOL So you guys have one guy stay behind and not hunt to look after the pig while it's roasting? Wouldn't it be funny if the pig was left alone for a while and a bear helped himself to it? A bunch of mad and hungry Italians you guys would be!! LOL

Some of us are heading up tonight and Pig will be slaughtered tomorrow morning around 6am. Dinner should be ready about 6pm when the whole crew arrives!

Well actually we slow cook it in a brick oven so no worries of a bear getting to it. We have to worry about which one of our guys is gonna sneak a taste!

The reason we cut the throat is to get the blood immediately because we make a pudding out of it. Sounds nasty but when made properly you would think it is an exotic high end chocolate pudding!

Ahh well, I'll be there for the pig meat, but I think I'll pass on the blood pudding. I have to leave some room for the chipmunk stew at Growalot's afterwards. LOL

Anyone else hungry reading this thread? I'm frickin starving...

[damore81]

Thank god its lunch time. Damn I have not gotten any work done today! What a surprise!

[ny hunter]

I would have to taste that blood pudding just because of what its made from.

Me too, I just want to try it... Even tho it doesn't sound great, I just want it... hahaha

If you are ever in Brooklyn I can tell you where to get it at an amazing Italian bakery. Not as good as homemade but close.

[Pygmy]

The pork sounds great, but I'd have to pass on the blood pudding.

It's just one of those things that never sounded appealing to me, like eating brains...

How old is the gent who gets to stick the pig this year ?

[steve863]

Pygmy, how about some chipmunk stew at Growalot's? I'm sure she has a good story or five for us! LOL You don't even need to call her if you decide to come over. She has a radar on top of her house that detects all movement up to 10 miles away so she'll know your coming. LOL

[RifleSharpShot]

Looks like it might snow out here in 6p,,Thats allright with me thats my favorite time to hunt yeaa boyy i cant waitt!!!!!

You got it. Its an authentic Italian bakery that makes it in what used to be a Italian neighborhood but it is now quickly becoming predominantly Chinese!
