RE: How long to soak deer
We butcher the deer that we kill as soon as possible. never heard of soaking it until now. i do not know if i would try it. hanging deer to let it age is a traditional thing in my opinion. i have found that the longer the skin in on the deer the more it tastes like they smell 'gamey'. if you were to hang a deer to age it i wouldsuggest to take thehide off. otherwisecut it up within hours or skin it and cut it up the next day if you have to.. mho.
