I never field dress deer. I get them hung up usually within an hour where we hoist them up by the hind legs with a gambrel where they are skinned. Then we gut them, then use the garden hose and spray nozzle to wash them off. You keep washing til you get them clean. Then they go in the walk-in for a few days. They hang by a hook that comes up through the pelvic opening. Then they are quartered and cut up and whatever.
