Sweet!  That's the good stuff right there.  I was able to hunt like that when I was younger, loved reading it. 
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

My interpretation of the rules are open to interpretation.
Once I thought I was wrong but I was mistaken.

Great read! Congrats. So, do you really see up the belly? Can you elaborate? Also, what is the golf ball skinning trick?

Cheers!

Howdy. Yeah, if we are going to drag a deer and not quarter or bone him out, we like to gut him and then sew his belly back shut to avoid getting dirt and debris inside his cavity while dragging. We carry heavy duty twine for this. Golf ball skinning method is quick and clean if you have the luxury of bringing a deer out with its cape still on. Check out YouTube for all sorts of videos of this.

You're not only a great hunter, but a great storyteller, as well!  :tup:
