The gutless method of cleaning an elk in 10 minutes.

I thought this was a pretty neat video of how he cleans this elk.

You think about how much hair he got on that thing.

Whats BS about this video and this process is that he left a good 50lb of meat to go to waste. If your going to shoot it take every bit of it that you can. Flank meat, rib meat etc.

   its no wonder people think there's only 100 pounds of meat on elk

I liked it that's how we do it. He said he was gonna take neck flank brisket etc as well which is also what we do.

  He did mention at the end that he had taken all the meat he was legally supposed to, but was going to take more neck/brisket etc. I'm assuming he did a good job of cleaning that animal up. No way to say he did or DIDN'T since the camera wasn't rolling. Don't be so quick to crucify the guy when you have no knowledge of what happened after they hit the off button.

 I think the point of the video is to show that you can break down an elk in a short period of time without having to gut it, and he showed that very well.

Is it remotely possible for people to just watch or view something and not put it down? Getting old.  You can't open a single topic anymore without something negative being brought out.  None of us were there to see what was left for the crows so why say anything?

[7mmfan]

If someone was filming me breaking down my bull this year, and we hit off at the same point this guy did, you may have been left with the same impression.

The next morning at first light I was hiking uphill past my kill location and I spotted a guy standing over the carcass. I walked over and said good morning. He said "boy the crows sure did a number on this thing, there isn't a scrap of meat left on it!" I said, "I killed this animal yesterday, thats exactly how we left it"

STOP JUDGING WITHOUT EVIDENCE

[kentrek]

I had the mute on  I just saw the ten minute time an fig he was done..

Its a sweet deal if ya do indeed take the extra time to clean up the rest of the meat

[gotcha]

Its how we do it. Works great other than we skin it and take the scrap meat.

Great video

[TMortensen]

He said they'd take some of the neck and brisket. that's it. But come on guys look at the amount he left by doing it quick. Ive taken 20+ elk and I have done twice that many for buddies. You try and take as much of the meat as possible and leave little for scavengers. I was taught this way and seeing guys do a sloppy job as a how too video is wrong. I get he was trying to show how quick it can be done, I just don't agree with it. my opinion!

[gotcha]

It looks like more cause guts are left in. honestly what is really left other than the neck meat and brisket

[Sitka_Blacktail]

Might be legal in Colorado, but in Alaska, that would get you a ticket for wanton waste.

And cleaner? I can't imagine the hair and dirt and grass they're gonna have to pick off this meat. I wouldn't let this guy touch an animal I'd shot.

[yakimarcher]

I've never got an elk, i saw this video a couple months ago and thought I would try it that way if i filled my tag, because it looks easier. I was going to skin it first then fillet off all the meat i could get at, then dump the guts out and get the tenderloins. I don't know, I was just looking to find an easier way for an inexperienced guy to process a big animal by himself.
