I like to hang my deer for about 5-6 days. I have my
meat locker which will keep the deer about 38 degrees.
I beleive it make it better. Beef is usually hung for
10-14 days at the processor down the road. I do not
beleive it hurts the deer as long as the temp. stays below
50 degrees. I do think it helps. I also process my own.
