If I were into that kinda thing I could shoot them like fish in a barrel in my own yard.
The very first thing I thought of upon reading all that was seeing them hanging from trees in so many yards growing up. I don't recall ever finding that unusual or disgusting but if I saw it now I would probably mutter "hick". I don't know what happened to me to change my opinion, probably moving away from the North Country. I know damn well that all people who hunt are not hicks, that's just me being snarky about a carnivore.
Another thing - when you kill a deer here, you have to take it to the DOT yard and get it tagged, I don't recall anyone ever doing that back home.
Our neighbors never hung their deer high enough. Our golden retriever was always stealing them and bringing them home to her Master (Mom).
