....i doubt it got messed up..i watched them tag the deer and we were like # 80 on the second day of season...very few people leave there deer there..its a mountain town and most do it thereselves..first saturday they went back to 0 after they hit 100 and we werein the 30s or 40s....so thats 150 deer in a week..thats nothing for a large scale butcher shop they had running...the second day they had 3 more to skin and i watched them do 2 of them...i dont think it was a hit....my dad looked at both steaks in the package and he said they were both fine and had no holes or anything like that and he sed it wasnt embedded...just laying there...they could have mixed it up but i think there would be a hole if there was a hit there...also of the 4 deer we had there we got back 7 phone calls throughout the week...3 for when the first 3 were cut...3 more when they were totally done smoked and all..and then 1 more to tell us that they are all finished...they called the first 3 times incase we wanted to pick up the steaks and chops...its to far for us to go after that and go back up 2 more times so we waited till it was all done...i think maybe it fell out of the carcass or something....i duno
