Now that most of our "main" hunting seasons are wrapping up do you process the deer you shoot or take to the processor?
We process everything ourselves. Depending on who, or how many, are helping it can be a pain in the hind end or a pretty good time. For the most part, it's not too bad. We then wait until after the first of the year to take in any meat if we want any specialty items (landjaegers, etc.)
We have two local processors and one is $75 and the other $90. This is for skin, cut, grind, wrap and freeze. I have a buddy that manages the meat dept at a local grocery store. He takes two weeks off during our rifle season and does the same as the others for $65. He only does it during those two weeks though.
