Just wondering if you do your own butchering.. I was raised in a
hunting family, where the only thing you send out is the head, if its
over a 10 pointer to be mounted.
The irony is I will not be getting a deer this year, because my
gremlin is in the garage, no where else to butcher it, and I refuse to
pay someone to do what comes natural for me. My kid has a swingset,
it entered my mind to hang the carcass from thee, but he is 9 and I
dont want this to come up in therapy when he is 17
