That’s my boy!

Took us an hour to find the blood trail in the wide open field. Of course he ran into the woods and down into a ravine. This is the first time I’ve laid eyes on a buck up close and could really appreciate how big of an animal they are.

That’s a nice one … good deal ya’ll

I wish the deer around me were that big.

Congratulations to you both.

Pete

Good looking deer. Way to go Chuckie!

Nice !

Wtg!

Way to go. Great buck!

Nice going Chuckie

Now the cutting up begins.

Lots of nice meals there
Did he jump out of the tree and ride him there? I see in the pics he's still straddling it

This one is going for processing. If it was a younger deer we always do ourselves.

Also I wouldn’t put it past him to ride the deer into the next county! Lol his leg was behind the deer but he got a cramp and had to lay his leg over it!

Good boy Chuckie. Now he's da Man.

Awesome!!

Excellent

Nice buck, congratulations.

Congrats!

Now you can learn how to do your own processing.

I have done my own does and separated the muscle groups into roasts and such. But I don’t have a grinder except an old avocado green countertop crank model!
Thought about learning how to make bologna and sausage!
Maybe some day.

I gotta get better at skinning and fleshing critters before I take on any new hobbies!

Get to tanning!

Very nice

Nice

Mac

the top photo needs to be framed and go on the wall. very nice.

Good going... big deer is just heavier, they all come apart the same....I rarely/never grind deer, just chunk up the stew meat,,,,

A cuber is a handy item. I cube every piece I can. Can grill it, fry it, make gravy on it...mmmm good!

A Beauty !!!

Take it with the longbow ???

Alpine compound Nessie!
A longbow would be cool. I have a recurve but never hunted with it.

great job chuckie! if your gonna have it processed please at least take the tenderloins out asap,and the back straps also

Nice deer , congrats

your turn.

I know!!

You have a whole year to practice....get em next season

way to go Chuck!!!

Congratulations!

Nice buck. Congratulations.

Good for him! Looks like a freezer full of meat.

Right on!

Does he let anyone else but you call him "Chuckie"?
Just wonderin.

Congratulations.

Congrats.Great photo

Just me.
He will answer to Chaz.
He will only rarely call me Smash and it’s almost too funny!

This one was a cow. Very heavy and hard to get out

Congratulations Chuckie & Smasho

Very Nice Buck

Nice

Any idea what it weighed?
Looks huge

Those big ones I've skinned and boned on the ground, ez,pz, lol

congratulations to Chucky. Best money is have ever spent on processing equipment was A cheap 575 watt lem #8 grinder. went years without a grinder. Then borrowed my in-laws several years and bought this cheap one about 15 to 20 years ago around $100. Its held up well. We run about 7 to 15 deer through it each year along with pork when the wife makes sausage. I have been hoping it would die so I can justify buying a larger one for when we are running multiple deer at a time or for when we decide to do cows. But it just won't die so far. Currently $122 @ amazon I picked mine up probably at rual king back then. here is a Walmart link. You can get by without one but once you have one you won't be without even s cheap one like this again. Less than one trip to the processor and years of use.

Nice buck, Chuck!!

Yep cutting them up don't take long. We have cut our own up since I was a kid and now passing it on to my kids. With them and my wife I would say 1\2 HR to 45 minutes.
