Pheasant Bartering Anyone?????

Each year in October,
for the past 5 years Kev and the boys have gone on 
a manly week long get-a-way to South Dakota for Pheasant hunting.
They meet Grandpa Christensen, and several of K's brothers, along w/
other thrill seeking males and hunt to their hearts delight.

Each year, a few weeks after we get a big white styrofoam cooler
packed w/ dry ice and several pheasants for us to put 
into our mini freezer in the garage.

Well.....we have yet to consume a single pheasant.
(Except if you count the time the freezer got left unplugged for several
days and every single frozen item was ruined in the devastation.....
the garbage can consumed at least six pheasants on that go round...or maybe it was nine.)
Our freezer space is beyond used up with these guys.
We need to barter them away.

Does anyone out there LOVE wild game??
Are you curious and interested in trying one?
Do you want to trade for a few...or all of them?

I looked online at a few sites...these little guys are pretty expensive....
but not ours.
We have no less than 18 birds in the freezer at the moment.
Here are a few ideas of things we (I) would love to trade for:

* used boys bike for a 12 year old
* full set of lashes
* chicken or steak
* gift card of any kind
* girls loft bed
*make a suggestion....your next birthday gift.....?

The sky is the limit.....
no suggestion will be overlooked!
* A bag of fresh fruit...

Where is your adventurous spirit? Do you have to pluck them or something? Why haven't you used them? That is not like you. I would totally make you give me one if I was close by. I challenge you to cook one up - make the boyz eat their kill.

OK....no they come ready to serve up. I am just not into it. But ok, I will take your challenge....I am going to stick it to those birds and those hunters. YEAH....make them eat their kill. I will report back later this week.
