Nice compliment from SB of SC DNR!

I purchased a few packages of the raw dog food for our Two Wolfs ( 100lb. Gray and 60lb. Arctic) they both seem to like it a lot. They almost see it as a treat. We serve them about one half a stick each, although the gray wolf usually gets a little more once a day and then for their second meal they get the Kibble which they are now being kind of stubborn about eating. I think they would prefer only the raw meat. All in all I think it is great! Can’t wait till we can someday use the venison. Thanks for the great product.

Venison Cheddarwurst is my favorite!

Cheddarwurst is a delicious cheesy smoked sausage. It comes packed in a l lb. vacuum sealed package. Order by the pack with no minimums!

Taking frozen meat just one more week! Sept. 14th is the last day!

Once the doe tags come in, we get overwhelmed with fresh meat and can't handle frozen meat. So we limit our frozen meat to the first month of the season, Aug. 15 to Sept. 14th. We take it again at the end of the season, but all on one day, January 7th. That's the Youth Hunt Day, so we check in youth deer and frozen meat all day. That's the last check-in day of the season. So if you have some frozen hams that you want to make into summer sausage, bring them before the 14th!

Robert Freeman got this big buck on Sunday night!
