I'm in the exact same boat! I even moved here from California before they build the fence keeping people in.
I'm learning to hunt.
Learning to clean and process deer.
And want to can what I kill for future use.

I also want to learn to HUNT rather than harvest.
But I do plan to do both. I will use the feeders and blinds.
That's not really hunting in my view. It's harvesting. Which by the way NEEDS to be done.
This will fill my freezer with meat. In the county I'll be hunting in i can take four deer.
I want two from harvesting, and two from longer range shooting away from the feeders.

Some think feeders are ambushing. But so is waiting by a water source or animal trail.
In my view all hunting is ambushing. Unless you chase the deer down with a knife.
I'm very excited about making awesome meals from deer meat. Wild hogs are on the list too!
