Canning Venison ?

I am interested in trying to can some venison I like the idea of having shelf stable reserves in case of long power outages and just another table option.
I have herd it is very good but have not tasted any myself and was wondering if any one here has any experience with it ?

My list would include my Work Sharp combo electric knife sharpener faster and better than my Lansky.
My Crawler deer cart after a few modifications

Re: New TOTA 3 blade broadhead

A great head for sure but I will stick to my 4 blade 1 1/8 in cut over a 3 blade 1 1/8 head.

Re: Blood trails

a bit surprised you did not get a pass through with that 1 inch head It was the only unlucky part of the shot. It was a dead center heart shot at 37 yards quartering away but the arrow hung up on the femur of the opposite leg. It was just under the skin. I broke the skin with my knife and pulled it...

Re: Turkeys

As far as broadheads for turkeys go I have had great results just using my deer hunting broadheads 4 blade slick trick x bow heads and shooting for the base of the wing none have flopped for more than 15 seconds .
No special heads needed in my opinion.
