White-tailed deer and turkey, mainly. I have a bow and arrows that are suitable for hunting, although I've never done anything with them other than kill paper targets. Since I've already got a pretty complete set-up, bowhunting would be the obvious choice. I've got too much on my plate right now to feel justified spending time or money hunting, but it's on my to-do list.

My hubby is an avid hunter. He goes for deer, elk, moose and grouse. We love having a freezer stocked full of healthy game meat! The kids (6 and 8) also hunt for grouse with their little Henry .22 gun. We all also archery shoot but I only do competitions.

It's funny. We have had out fair share of run ins with anti-hunting people....but then they go buy slabs of meat from the grocery store. Puzzling. Feel better in terms of ethics knowing our meat roamed fields and was not pumped full of junk to fatten it up.
