Figured it was getting close so I decided I would poke my head onto the iceshanty to see whats going on. Looks like everyone is gearing up for the season. Hoping for another fun year like last year. Been busy in the deer woods myself got freezer full of venison to share with the crew on the ice this year. Even made some venison sausage bratwurst for the first time. Tried a couple the other day pretty yummy. Filled 4 of my 5 tags so far. Still working on my last bow tag but running out of time.

Looking good ranger, I've always wanted to do some bratwurst. Got any tips or tricks you learned doing it? Did you smoke them?

This was my first time making them and it wasn't as difficult as I thought its was going to be. Picked up some hog casings from Market basket and followed the prep directions on the package. Coarse ground the meat once along with the pork butt. I used a 2 part venison to 1 part pork ratio to help keep them nice and juicy when cooking. Then hand mixed the seasoning in, and ran it back through the grinder through the coarse grinding plate and into the stuffer tube. You want to lube up the tube so the casings slide off better. I just used water but next time I will use vegetable oil. It took me a few times to get the hang of the correct amount of meat to put into the casings. If you make them to big the casings can split when you twist them off. I made them about 8" long and 1/3rd of a lb each. Wasn't sure how they were going to come out so I only did a 10lb batch which gave me 30 Brats. Something I will be making every year from now on for sure.
 
   Think I may invest in a good sausage stuffer. The grinder attachment works fine but I think it would be easier to get a more consistent size out of a stuffer. My grinder is pretty big and fast so you have to work the casing quick to keep up with it.  Its a 2 person operation with the grinder. One to work the casing and one to run the grinder.

How old is your daughter? She looks to be around the same age and size as my oldest, almost 4 1/2. I got her a bow this past spring. After a bunch of research I went with the cartel mini compound bow. It is actually made to be functional novelty bow but it fit her perfect. I wanted to go with a compound bow and a lot of the youth bows where to big for her axle to axle wise and draw weight. Think it has like a 10lb draw weight, and 19" axle to axle, but flings the arrows that come with it up to 100 feet per second enough to stick into my rag and 3d target. Of coarse she lost those arrows pretty quick so I cut down some of my old busted up arrows and they don't fly as fast. The rest that comes on it is no good. way to hard for her to keep the arrow on so I put a old whisker biscuit on it and that worked out well. Sorry they don't come in pink trust me I looked. If I didn't have 2 other kids coming up behind her I would offer it to you because I think she may be ready for a bigger one this year.
