nice. i got one this year. time got me. i let a doe walk that i wish now i had harvested. but i got a nice 6 and about 50 lb of meat... gonna make deery cheese steaks tomorrow night.. mad some sausage and burgers the other day. great success with no filmy aftertaste you get with processor...
i have used a processor maybe 3 times. i dont feel i get all the meat. i try and field dress them as quick as i can. get them guts out and let it cool. its Ga and may be 75 on Christmas day. anymore i bone out the hams, take the shoulders complete for stew or tamales, and any little cuts and...
went out this morning, little late start got in the stand at dawn just before sunrise. let off a buck bomb and chilled out. wishing i was earlier, and regretting stopping at the gas station for a berry Danish. i sat enjoying the beauty of the woods. then something i have not seen since we lived...

my 308 does more meat damage, and does not always knock them flat. i have noticed that the round does not expand as much in a deer. but its big...
i do all of mine myself. every time i use a processor i get.. less meat, gamey meat, poor cuts and no real value...
there is a respect for the animal when you do it yourself. you get more of the deer, you defiantly get your deer and not just how many pounds of meat. i have felt many times i...
i will post up my brine and process when i get my first one this year. it gets rid of the gamey taste. i soak it in the brine overnight them bag it and freeze it.

last year i saw what was one of the best group of bucks ever. they...
