So killing, plucking,skinning is on the agenda for tonight. I am sqeemish but understand that I have to grow a set if I want to survive !
There is part of me that thinks I will either wimp out or vomit when it comes to dissection...How will I get on?
I will keep you all posted x
You all gotta realize this is a big step forward for me...wish me luck
simply, its just meat, im sure you've cooked plenty of times before, this aint no different, only a few steps before having washed off the meat, just a bit rawer

if you feel queasy just close your eyes for a second and compose your self, deep breaths in your mouth out your nose, 2 or 3, open your eyes and carry on, its gotta be done, and the quicker you get it done, the less time you'll spend having to do it

hope that helps


but basically if you can gut a fish, killing and gutting an animal aint gonna be any harder!
just take your time with it, and make sure you get a clean kill, better 1 clean kill than 5 messy ones

oh and most of all, good luck, have fun, and enjoy your first hunting experience
