Everyone who hunts needs to know: The key to useable meat is to get it skinned, dressed, quartered and COLD as soon as possible.

Ive seen deer hanging in a tree with the hide on for two days, with daytime temps in the 60s, only to be tken home...butchered and wrapped...only to be thrown out a few months later.

Because the meat was crap.

Do the work and get your meat to a locker within 24hrs at the latest. 6 hours is best.

“less obvious” Because people are too pampered. All meat comes packaged in the grocery store.

This is why I don’t hunt. It sounds like fun until you take your shot. After that, its nothing but work.

This article feels like the first shot in a battle by the peutocracy^* to require game bags so as not to alarm the wee little peuts.

So, I should take a walk-in freezer with me hunting. Got it.

One of these days, I’ll go try it. Hopefully, before I get too old to hump up and down those mountains.

Tie it to the roof of the car so that it can air cool on the drive home.
