Well, it's that time of year again- Beast Feast Time!! In TWO WEEKS four girls get to lower the boom on some elk in Idaho! Rexburg, to be exact. Every year for the men's Beast Feast (a local outreach for men in the community) girls are chosen to shoot buffalo to supply the main meat of choice for the evening event. For past events we have had 20+ different kinds of meats ranging from succulent alligator to (not so wonderful) whale. This year we get the privilege to shoot elk! I've shot elk before- but every time is an exciting time, that's for sure! Their majestic antlers cresting the top of a ridge and as your heart practically beats out of your chest- YOU MAKE THE SHOT. Definitely exciting.
The ranch that supplies the buffalo is down in Oregon; Schreiner Farms. The owner is a friend of my dad and we have a blast down there petting his giraffes, camels... pretty much you name it- he has it!
The same gentleman owns property in Idaho where we will be hunting for elk- below are some pictures of the critters he has at his Oregon ranch.

Many unusual creatures reside in Northern Oregon at the Schreiner Farm :)
A new adventure, a new creature to harvest for meat. The Beast Feast is a huge blessing- to those in attendance, but also for the many men and women that prepare and help before and during the event. This year it will be February 5th- I can't wait! Rifles, meat, hunting trips, etc. will be given away! Don't miss your opportunity to join in on one of the funnest sportsman's events!
