Helps with trigger control too. Actually stops me from pulling the trigger more often. 😆 That's when the work begins. Yep

I don’t gut deer even when I process them myself. Do you leave the tenderloins? I process my own deer. The whole family joins in. I want my kids to know how to. Helps with trigger control too. With the deer hanging head down you can open the stomach cavity to remove bladder and colon. Gravity keeps all remaining organs down low. Cut inner loins out then everything else. Only thing left is chest cavity, head and 4 legs which makes for easy disposal.

Depends on how far the drag is, temperature and where I’m at if I gut or not. I quarter mine with or without but if taking directly to processor I normally gut them.
Would walk over a naked woman to get to a gobblin turkey!

What difference does it make whether you are getting it processed. If getting processed I just take the 4 quarters in, keeping backstraps and inside loins at home. Quarters are in an ice chest with my name on it. when I pick up my processed frozen packages they are in my ice chest for the ride home. Saves a lot on the price of getting one processed.
Because if i'm getting it processed, they're gonna gut it and charge me for it. If i'm doing it myself, well I don't keep the ribs, so no need to gut it.

The processor I use in Gordo asks not to gut the deer prior to bringing it to him. He doesn't like the mess that people leave inside the deer (dirt, guts, etc...). He doesn't charge to gut the deer.

Are these processors that don’t charge for gutting and skinning backyard/come and go type business. I have never seen a top notch processor that did not charge a fee for dressing a deer.
I like Jiffy cornbread.

The ones that I was referring to are both very well-known processors (I'd venture to say the most well-known in their respective areas). They both advertise on their price list that they offer that service for an add'l fee ($10-15). One of them NEVER charged me, the other is about 50/50. I don't know if they just forgot or what...

I process most of my own deer, including cube steak and ground. I do what MBrock described most of the time, bag the quarters, and get them on ice. Backstraps come out easy, and a small poacher's cut frees the inside loins. Big deer, I'll pull the neck roasts also.
One processor near where I hunt, Central Alabama Deer Processing, does a great job, and will gut for a small additional charge. If I shoot when it's convenient, then I'll take the deer up there without doing anything.

Some of the processors clean and quarter their deer like I do and they don’t gut them all. It’s so much more efficient and not messy at all. The ones who do guy I’m not aware of a charge. If there is it’s not much.

Hall’s in Gordo and The Meat Locker in Fosters don’t charge to gut and skin.
