Background

I'm an almost forty year old guy who has recently gained an interest in hunting as a way of attaining healthful, natural sustenance for myself and my husband.  I grew up in a place where most families, including ours, participated in hunting, but for various reasons I had not done so in almost twenty years.

Earlier this year, my father gave me a number of hunting guns, and with some discussion leading to an ultimate blessing from my anti-gun husband (you get that way when you grow up in Belfast during the "Troubles") I declared I would provide us with wild meat.

This possibly half-assed blog is an account of that effort.
