I just don't get it, I guess Ron White was right, "you can't fix stupid"  I have seen deer camps with deer hanging from a TREE or MEAT POLE that still had their hides on for a couple of days or more.  What do they think, the added insulation will keep them cooler??  :DOH:  :DOH: :DOH: :DOH: :DOH: :DOH:

you never know what the situation is.  Last year we caravaned with a suburban and a truck.  The truck left on the last morning and my buddy smoked a buck when we pulled back into camp a couple hours later. It wasnt what we planned on doing but you have to improvise.  we gutted it, drug it to the top of the burban and bailed.
If it looks fishy, fish it. If it doesn't look fishy, fish it anyway!

For the 2 of you who posted this link to try and make the gentlemen look bad, you should go back and recheck their replies.  I don't think it's too cool reposting someonelse's stories trying to make them look bad, especially if you don't have the facts.  Just Saying! :dunno:

Those are the same guys you saw at Cabelas Friday night before opening day getting their new rifle and scope.   These are also the same guys who shoot 3 boxes of ammo before they realize they may need to fine tune their freshly "bore-sighted" rifles.  And.... yes, these are the same guys who set up a shooting range at camp in the middle of hunting season and blaze away.  Pilgrims.  

I'm not sure where it comes from, but I never understood people who leave the hides on the animal for a few days if not week after the kill.  Maybe back east where it never gets above 30 degrees in hunting season, but out west here, I was taught to gut immediately, and get the hide off as quick as possible, but NEVER more than a few hours.  If it's going to be a few hours, open the arm pits up to let the heat escape (especially on elk).  When I was stationed in Northern California, some of my buddies killed a few deer and asked me to come help butcher a week later.  When I arrived, the frickin hides were still on the deer, and they had then encased in some of those "cheesecloth" 99 cent Walmart deer bags.  The maggots were falling off the damn things and the smell was unimaginable.  I asked these puddknockers what they were thinking... they said that's how they do it "back home" in Alabama.  I asked them if it is 75 degrees in deer season back home.  They got the point.  That was a shame.  
Nothing witty here.... move along.

Back east we used to leave the hide on them for a week. Like you said it's dang cold then back there. We also didn't use game bags and we didn't quarter deer in the field ever.
That's a different world of hunting back there though.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

And people wonder why their wives and freinds hate to eat venison and they all think it tastes like crap. Thats cause most people dont care for their meat like it should be.

Thats exactly right. I simply will not eat anybody's venison unless I feel like they know at least a little about taking care of the meat. We saw a lot of that in Wyoming.

Excuse my ignorance, but clearly bucky wasn't going inside the family hauler. So what should they have done? If you hunting within a short drive in from home. You don't have a "camp" to hang and skin and quarter.  So, what do you do?

You can if there is ROOM, put down a tarp and load it up. :twocents:

That mini van was 5 cars ahead of me and I thought it was a deer but didnt think there was any way so i grabbed my binos to check and shure enough I almost drove off the Rd into the columbia.. :chuckle:

Not sure why you linked to that thread?  :dunno:

My wife saw that van in Leavenworth yesterday.
