Anyone use these? Looks like it would keep things a little cleaner, and speed things up. www.outdooredge.com.         (steel sticks)

 :yeah: Actually I don't even use sticks anymore. No reason to gut an animal unless you are going to get it out whole and where I hunt that is not an option...... So gutless method it is!

Unless you have T-REX arms you should be able to field dress with no problems, and not be messy.  :twocents:
And if you need to open the chest cavity like has been said, sticks work great....and are free....
To hunt and butcher an animal is to recognize that meat is not some abstract form of protein that springs into existence tightly wrapped in cellophane and styrofoam.
