Theres a processor close to here that has a "drop off room" for deer. You pull up and chunk your deer in there. My stepbrother used to skin deer for them. I have helped him. Not unusual a few years ago to walk in there on monday and deer would be piled up knee deep. Never got any meat from them icould eat.i quit deer hunting several years because of them. I was tired of throwing deer away so i just quit killing them. After i got back in church, someone gave me a pack of meat from Weavers. Weavers gave me deer hunting back. They hang every deer from the time they leave the tailgate untill they cut them.up, usually two weeks later. Thats a gamechanger. Brothers in Hanceville also does that. To me it makes that much of a difference and thats how i want mine handled I've heard great things about Weaver's. Over an hour away, but I'm still considering taking some there.

One I'm keeping for myself will either be gutted in the woods or as soon as I get it back to the cabin , hoisted up and hosed out with cool, spring water.

I don't gut them at all. Get them to the skinning rack as soon as possible and skin them. Then cut out the front shoulders, back straps, and tenderloins. Separate the hind quarters and dump the carcass for the scavengers. We've had a bald eagle around to get his share.

Sounds like the real problem here is that possibly a deer just ain't that good. I know some folks love them and need to kill 25-30 to keep the neighborhood fed. Same thing... a cow that comes right out of a pasture ain't that good either.
They taste better if you feed them corn.
No government employees were harmed in the making of this mess.

I will gut one in the field if I need to reduce the weight to load by myself.

I never gut a deer. I lay em on the tailgate and remove all edible meat w/o gutting or skinning. Feed carcas to the buzzards.
I've spent most of the money I've made in my lifetime on hunting and fishing. The rest I just wasted.....

I think there is a difference in gutting a fresh killed animal and chicken left on a 102 degree tailgate. Trust me I'm an ice fanatic. I want the meat cold pretty quick. But if that doesn't happen in an hour I'm not going to worry about my hamburger.... I wasn't meaning you in particular and I don't mean one hour is the difference maker. I just think there's too many people that are a little too comfortable letting a deer go undressed for hours after they've recovered it when it takes no time at all to handle one way or another.

Don't forget your wallet and your checkbook... they are good but you definitely pay for it. Take your meat to them in a cooler quartered up you will be better off
