Today, Aug. 20, 2011, starts the Utah big game hunting season.  The bow hunt began today at first light!  Next will be the dove hunt and then all of the other hunts to include, grouse, elk, duck, pheasant and the rest of the deer hunts.

I’m pretty excited about this years hunts, as usual.  There is something to be said about the muzzle loader hunt that just plain get me all giddy.  I’ve always said it begins and ends my year.  AND as a bonus, sometimes I even tag a buck and that puts some meat in the freezer and a new batch of jerky for everyone to enjoy.

Speaking of which, I’m out of jerky…does anyone have some extra meat from last year they would like to donate?  I’ll make you a deal…you provide the meat, and I’ll make the jerky and give you half!
