my first fielddressing...

[RonW]

I reached an outdoorsmilestone for me, today, as I dressed my very first animal, ever.Many of you may think nothing of it or even giggle at this, but for me, as a cityboy, this is a major accomplishment in my outdoorsactivities; one of the milestones I wanted to achieve.
I will not bore you with all the details, but here's a shot;

well done
the first one is allways the hardest never sure if you are doing it right
it will get easy the more you practice
so did you eat your kill and was it good ?
what type of bird was it

I remember the first bird I ever prepared; must have tried for half and hour to find the innards down the neck hole before I cottened on that I was doing it all wrong!

Good effort! The first always takes the longest, you learn more from that than watching hours of videos on how to do it (although this is the best place to start!) and you'll find the next far easier.
It's always nice seeing quarry used as intended rather than "left for the foxes" too

Thanks!
It certainly was a lot less messy than I expected.
