Does anyone have any tips on how to take off the hair that gets on your Deer meat, thats faster than tweezers. Tack Cloth perhaps?

RE: Deer Hair
One thing you can do is before you cut the animal up is wash it with a mixture of vinger and water, then let dry completly and then you can cut it up, won't get as much hair or any on the meat.
Spend $15 and buy a propane torch. Just quickly run the lit torch over the entire deer while it's hanging. The hairs will pop and disappear. This leaves no ill-affects, and takes EVERY hair off. The butchers have been doing this to hogs and poultry for 100 years.
Hope this helps!

Those sound like great Ideas to me.
I never would of thought to burn the hair off first, but it makes perfect sense......Thanks.....May your arrows stay straight .
I'll have to go out and shoot a big buck to try out your ideas...Thanks guys.... <font size=6></font id=size6><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>
COD, if you skin it correctly, you shouldn't have but a few hairs on the meat. When that happens, we just take a damp cloth in cool water and wipe it down.
If you hang it upside down, the skin should pull off with out leaving but maybe a hair or two !!!
