Thank you all for your advice!

I know I am a bit crude, but I usually just cut out the shoulders and hams and the back-strap, and leave the rest for the buzzards..
REV, do you 'guesstimate' the meat cuts, and cut the skin off later?

Normally that's what I do, but I try to take off as much of the skin as possible because I like to put the meatin a cooler with ice, and the skin is very dirty and gets in the meat. When I get home, I go through each piece making sure I have all the hair off. Each day I change the ice and water again checking there is no hair and cutting off the clear fat off the meat. I put several potatoes cut into quarters in the water.. I repeat the process for a min of 5 days or until the smell is completely gone.
