"100 Gun owners surveyed 2009"

I am doing a Power Point Family feud game for the youngsters in firearms safety again this year. The one last year when over so well another one is needed.
(I downloaded this game from).
http://www.pttinc.com/ppgame.htm

Question 1. Your favorite Big Game Animal That you hunt.

Question 2. Your favorite Small Game Animal That you hunt

Question 3. Your favorite Non-Game Animal That you shoot

If you don't have a favorite small game leave it blank and vise versa.

Thank you, Please

1) Deer (hopefully soon to be elk once I can afford the time for the second license)

2) Rabbit

3) Crows

And BTW tree rats taste great and are game animals, not nongame. But if you don't eat them I suppose they could be nongame

Awwww, come on! What about all of us folks who are bursting at the seams with opinions... but don't do much hunting?

FWIW, I support hunting and conservation, but had no hunters in the family growing up, so I was never mentored in hunting. I have hunted a couple of times (waterfowl) and went on a boar hunt, but I've never been deer hunting.

Thank you so much for the support Brother.
We have statistics where we talk about the people who support us as hunters. Help me word a survey question that would turn the wheels in a 12 year old mind and I will use it also. I am struggling with wording a survey question to do just that.
And thank you all for the input!
Look out snakes! never even gave them thought
