Big fat butchering

My buddy came over at 7:30 this morning and we headed over to our other buddy's barn where Big Fat Buck was hanging. We brought it over to my house and hung it up and started butchering it at about 8:30, we had to peel it first and then wash a lot of poo out of it that I did not see the night I first hung it.

We finished tonight at about 9:30. It was my second time butchering a deer and I was learning on the fly. I was really pretty surprised at how much silverskin and tendons they have. A lot.

The pile of scrap (dog food) was almost as much meat as we vacuum sealed. A big pile of bones and a fairly good hide with a couple of nicks on the belly.

Lots of sinew for bowmaking.

And the deer weighed about 160 field dressed.
