I'm in the minority here.
I first remove any "exterior" organs, then cut between the legs till i hit bone. I then split the pelvis. I then slit the under belly to the windpipe. I cut the anus and bladder loose alone with the wind pipe/ esophagus. Then everything comes out in one convenient package. Takes about 5 min. I don't process the deer myself (cuz I'd just butcher it!), but I field dress and take it to the processor. But I've never been able to get to the bladder. How do you split the pelvis? With just the knife? Or could I remove everything except the bladder and let him do it when he processes it? just gut it . when you cut the chit tube just reach as close to the butt hole as you can from the inside and pull the deer pellets back and cut it . leave the butt hole and pee bag . if you want to save the liver or heart take zip locks with you

I like how Steve Rinella does his. http://youtu.be/EdFtwFN5G4AHe uses a saw tooth blade from a multitool and saws the pelvis and breast plate. I have also seen vids of guys using a small cheap hatchet to work through those bones.

It takes less than a minute to field dress a deer. It is not like its a full blown operation. I remove everything, wash it down good and throw a bag of ice in the cavity if its hot outside before it gets to the cooler.

I gut mine, but I like to let them hang in the cooler with hide on for a few days. I can do it with, or without splitting the pelvis bone and all with a 6" folding buck knife in 5 minutes. The pelvis just takes a good whack on top of the blade, especially with a bigger buck to get it to pop.
