Like my mom once said to me probably long before Kc was even born " if you do not have anything nice to say then....."no, a customer, and member, getting screwed out of his ENTIRE ELK is pathetic. end of story, sorry but no price can be put on the time, money, energy, work and the list goes on, for what he lost, if you dont get that then your no sportsmen, hunter, fisherman, or even in possession of an ounce of common sense.

I have known Doug and Don for many years they have always been straight forward with people. My uncle ran a small wild game butcher shop in Cle Elum for many years that I helped at, most of you would be surprised at the condition of the animal that some hunter bring to the shop and expect the butcher to fix. One I remember brought in a cow elk that had been shot through all 4 quarters , we spent a lot of time cutting that elk because of all the blood shot and we the hunter came to pick it up he was very upset because there was only about 150# of wrapped meat. He swore we had stole half of his elk and he told everyone that would listen the same story but he neglected to tell everyone he had shot it 4 or 5 times. If you talk to any butcher that cuts a large amount of wild game the last thing they want to do is eat it let alone steal it. The point is hunters are known to tell tall tales or embellish a fair bit so do your self a favor and take them up on there offer to stop in and see for your self how they do things.Randy Bailey
Why would a butcher do crappy work when their lively hood depends on it ? I think you guys are whiners . How many times do you buy meat at Safeway and it's totally tough, stinks etc ? Give all these meat cutters a break ! 10, 20, 30, 40, 50 years in business might tell you something !! Find something legit to bitch about or stay on the westside...... you whiners are discusting !

Another ignorant generalization.
Nothing is wrong with the wet side. I can shoot branch antlered bulls every year, almost always draw my second deer tag, chase monster blacktails, shoot geese every day of the week, murder dungees and salmon, and never drive more then a hour from my house. Also I get to have my wood burning stove going in this nice rain with my dog sleeping at feet. Also if anyone wants help or to learn how to process their own game meat I am on the Kitsap peninsula and more then willing to help out. I have all the equipment and all you need is $ vaccume bags, PM me if interested.

Unfortunately it only take one time for me to be done with them. The worst part about my experience is the did nothing to make right by it. As a matter of fact they made excuses and then blamed me....Shame on them. Had they made right by me....I would still use them (a simple sorry and maybe a few pounds of stew meat like I wanted with my elk). Because they used poor judgement and couldn't do what was right, our camp will not use them. It is really unfortuneate cause they did a fine job until that point. I actually have a hard time not stopping in every time I pass them, which is atleast 2 times a month. Really all they had to do was the right thing.

My one bad experience with using a meat shop was with this outfit as well and I said the same thing. Make it right somehow apology or whatever but, don't call me a liar and tell me I'm wrong. Aside from this post I have never bashed the outfit as a whole and I still stop in for some of the awesome products when I'm traveling by. Still a good shop for other things and they still get my business just not my meat anymore I tried 1 time and that was enough for me to continue to butcher my own game. Good luck with your business Mr. Owens and I wish you the best and again, you still get my business on your other delicious products.
