What do you guys do with venison after harvest. I do not want to spend two weeks ageing then 8+ hours processing to get back results that make me need to dispose of meat. I could see hunter # going down.

Older deer are more likely to be infected. If you shoot a couple fawns instead of a mature deer, you're less likely to have wasted time processing infected meat. These days I try for a head shot on young deer when rifle hunting. Less mess, less loss, and smaller deer are easier to handle and process. It also leaves the mature deer to keep breeding. Might be something that works for you.
