I have never killed a deer also. I always thought I would like to but probably will never happen.
Raised on a small farm I know where meat comes from so that's not the problem. Deer seemed to be non existent in eastern Iowa when I was a kid.
I did kill my share of bunny rabbits, sold the meat to fund my .22 shells. My dad liked pidgin soup so I shot those as well and cleaned them.
My mom cooked the pheasant I shot in with a duck as I didn't care for the greasy duck.
