I was affirming your statement real men use bows. I agree. I love my crossbow, which is a type of bow.

For old and crippled people to hunt with and feudal lords fighting off medieval sieges.

I’ve gotten to where I hang around the skinning shed for the livers. I love liver in general and deer liver is very clean and mild taste compared to market beef or chicken.

Deer liver fajitas. Good lord it’s good

You “real men” surely don’t use a compound bow. You must jump out of a tree onto the deer’s back and bash its head with a rock or stab it in the jugular.

I just put my elk tenderloins and heart in the freezer. Feels very odd. They are usually cooked immediately.

It’s easier to just stab in the lungs and just follow a short blood trail. Neck gets iffy.

Trim it well, cutting out all the valves and connective tissue.
Slice into strips and brown them in a bit of butter. Don't crowd the skillet.
When you’re done browning all the meat, add a little more butter to the skillet along with a sliced onion. When the onion is translucent and starting to brown, deglaze the pan with beer and sprinkle a bit of brown sugar on the onions. One the sauce has thickened, add the heart back into the skillet and stir well.

I also like to finely diced it and cook it with eggs and potatoes for a breakfast hash
