“Eating Wild Game Animals” - with Ayden & James Doumtsis

The Twin Elements Podcast

Episode 14 | Released: 7th April 2025

Welcome back to the Twin Elements Podcast.

In this episode we discuss all things to consider when wanting to harvest, butcher and process your own meat.
Essentially, we are covering whats involved with "Eating Wild Game Animals”.

We run you through our process of what to consider pre hunt, the gear you might need all the way through to what to do once an animal is on the deck.

Ultimately, when you make the conscious decision to start eating the wild animals that you hunt, you are deciding to take on a steep learning curve.

After butchering hundreds of animals over the years we hope to shed some of our more helpful tips and considerations in an attempt to shorten your learning curve .
