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.

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

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,,,,
