Let the butchering begin

Post by P'duck » Mon Dec 02, 2013 11:12 am

Mde it home after an 11 day trip and hunted 9 days, managed to bow and gun hunt taking 7 deer in the Midwest. Four bucks and three does hit the ground, took a nice 10, Crab Claw big frame 7, decent 8 and an oddball 6 for a cull buck. The three does all were in the 90-110# range and I could have easily taken half a dozen more does and untold number of spikes and forks. 200-300 pounds of boned out meat is packed in my coolers and tonight promises to be a very long evening for the wife and I, we will make three families very happy though with gifts of fresh venison.

P'duck,
Looks and sounds like you had a great time. Great looking racks too! One thing for sure in the picture of one of the does, there was no blood shot meat to trim :clap . What state did you mid-west state were you hunting in?

I have two more to butcher then grind burger here today and a friend will be over with a hog he shot this morning and maybe a doe if he connects today. We were actually hunting on a few of my friends farms up in the area, Tink took a good buck after having a 150" Nontypical within arms reach of the back of his ground blind, last time he leaves the back window up that far. I've got lands if anyone wants to hunt Illinois, plenty of bucks and does running around and great hands to take a 140" or above if your patient.

Nice! A lot of butchering is a good problem.
