Hunting Season

    Hunting has been a way of life for people for centuries. It was 18,000 years ago that bows were invented and used to kill game. Dogs were domesticated about 15,000 years ago to aid in hunting. When agriculture and raising animals became part of life, hunting still continued. Farmers continued hunting to eliminate animals that were preying on their domestic animals. Although, hunting became more of a sport than a neccesity. It was a luxury for upper class Europeans and they were the ones that made hunting into a sport or game. This is where the usage of the word "game" meaning hunted animals came about. In modern times hunting is a sport that is available for anyone. However, due to over hunting in many places, regulations have been set. There are now certain times of the year in which hunting is permitted. Here in America, a lot of hunting occurs in the fall. Hunting season has already began in many places across the US. When the game is killed, there are of course things that need to be done before it is ready for consumption. Some of these things include skinning and gutting the animal. To do this a proper skinner knife is needed. Silver Stag offers a wide variety of skinner knives. Visit our website dovecreektradingcompany.com purchase a skinner knife or any other knives you might need for hunting this year.
