The meat gets dirty if you butcher it in the field in Scandinavia.

Nothing a little window insulation film and game bags cant handle. Don't need to do all the cuts, just break it down into manageable sizes to carry. If you can get equipment/vehicles to it i wouldn't bother either. I killed an elk once on private land that was about 400 yards from where we could get a pickup and still was easiest to break it down in quarters.

If I made the rules, things would be different, but alas.

I watch plenty of videos about it so I'm prepared for the day it happens. I've gutted plenty in the field, but never broken one down.

This guy was in sugar beets when I got in stand.

This guy showed up about a half hour later just couldn’t get him close enough. Michigan bow season.
bachelor group of 12 bucks came out a little bit later. Nonstop action all night.

Kids get off early today for an in service. I'm headed out around 2 with my 8 year old to try to kill his first deer. My 13 year old will be trying it as well. Have a spot with a scrape tree at 20 yards and a fresh stand of rye coming up. I think we're in for a good evening.

follow up. We had a fun night. A long track job, followed by bumping a deer and finding it early this morning.

Lessons to be learned about shot placement and that even slightly quartering to can make for a long night. But the end result is a proud dad, a proud 8 year old, and a dead first deer. Pretty impressed with this kid's composure.
