I wouldn’t hunt if I wasn’t first intrigued by the prospect of butchering - I don’t come from a hunting background, and if it wasn’t for social media I would not be into hunting now.

With that said there are ramifications for social media, both in the hunting community and society at large, the extent of which is perhaps not fully realized.
I'm in a similar boat, I've been an avid cook for a very long time now, so butchering is actually much more in my wheelhouse than field dressing, since I've worked a decent amount with primal cuts, hog heads etc. Getting into hunting really grew out of my desire to be more involved with producing the food that I eat, similar to gardening.
