re: How many ducks is enough?

Off topic but there is a lot or data to suggest catch and release fishing is about as detrimental to populations as catching and keeping...handling of fish makes a HUGE difference but most folks just toss them back. Shooting ONLY decoying birds is about as close as duck hunting can come to catch and release. That and only shooting drakes and only shooting certain species like mallards or teal or, in our area, ring necks LOL.

My wife didn’t grow up eating deer meat so she’s doesn’t really give it a shot when I grill it.
My wife never ate any sort of deer ever. I just started mixing it in meatballs and stuff. Now she's cool with it.

Mine is the same way. She wouldn’t touch it 20 years ago. Now she tells me when we are running low so we know to shoot another.

If you have to give away fish and game then you are overkilling. Giving game away is not an ethical excuse to kill more. On average we have the most greedy sportsman in the country. Take pictures or be more selective in what you harvest if you don't want to sit at home. Fish can be released, deer can be passed on, and ducks, well I don't know what to say about ducks, LOL. I guess just see if you can lite them and take pics or just shoot drakes.

Feeding excess game to pigs might be a good way to dispose of scraps but if they are being fed edible portions it is actually "wanton waste".
Some "sportsmen" are more appropriately defined as "Game Hogs" and then they complain about decreased numbers showing up for them to needlessly slaughter.

I’ve tried about every way I can think of.
Grilled back straps
Tenderized and fried
Hawaiian Smoked Sausage
Jalapeño and Cheddar Smoked Sausage
Smoked hindquarter
I just get trimmed back straps to grill myself and the kind of sausage I want and call it good.

I try to eat everything I can so that my freezers aren't full of game and other products.
Others on here likely hunt more days than I do so it isn't that much of an issue.

If young, do you really think they'd want to see it slaughtered if they raised it like a pet
When I was a kid my dad got each of us a pig and we knew they were being raised to eat. I named mine after my little elementary school girlfriend, Kaylene, my brothers named theirs Einstein and Snoopy. We ate them all. Poor Kaylene.

Asian nail shops or dry cleaners love to get the ducks. Good way to up the level of service from both vendors.
Have them processed into sausage, summer sausage, boudin, tamales, or chorizo. Duck chorizo with eggs is awesome.

My wife didn't grow up eating it, but when she married me she realized we were broke kids raising babies so she ate deer and learned to cook with it 100 different ways. Now she thinks just because we can afford beef (and afford deer hunting) that she can just buy beef. She still eats a good bit of deer but she'll go buy beef if she wants to cook w ground meat. Kids and I would eat deer every day and not complain.

you are liable to see folks with a couple hundred or more snow geese stacked up. What in the hell do most of them do with all of those snow geese? They are not very good eating.
Talked to my brother-in-law recently and he said a few guys he knew gave him around 50 snow geese and he only kept the breast meat. He said he slices it across the grain, marinates it overnight in his concoction and then fries it and swears it's like gourmet eating when fixed that way.
