I sure dont get treating the critter that way after going to all that work... in my camps they get hung in the shade, undresssed and cleaned, bagged and wait at least one overnight to chill them...then transported back tucked under the canopy or sheltered from the weather, still bagged in a game bag and often wrapped in a blanket or sleeping bag to protect from the heat.
Mine have always tasted JUST FINE! :IBCOOL:

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?
If you have a knife to gut him then you can bone it out and put in a cooler. Don't just go out hunting if your not prepared.

Whats sad is that there are people that were just never taught or don't know proper field care.
That is very true Michelle.

:yike: Do it at the side of the road where you drove up to pick it UP. At LEAST quarter it and get it on ice in coolers...if you have maybe an hour longer BONE THE THING OUT....its NOT that hard to do and will leave you with tasty meat instead of something NASTY. :bash:

Try coolers and a little time to bone it out. Put it on ice inside the mommy van. Coolers big enough for a deer are 60 bucks. If you dont have a camp, Bring a tarp, lay it on the ground to keep dirt off and go to work.
Nevermind all this has been said before. Should have read all the other posts. Sorry.

1. How people like this are sucessful. Looking at the Chelan success thread, those guys took 2 good bucks in a tough area, then did a piss poor job of taking care of the meat. It was like they did 1/2 a hunt and called it good.
2. How people like this think what they are doing is OK? "How to" meat care is all over the internet. Skinning takes no time, there are even ways to do it with your pickup. If you don't know, ask.

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.

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.

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.

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