RE: No-gut butchering
I'm lucky. We can call ours (register our kill)in within 24 hours.
I also walk to all my hunting spots. I usually shoot the deer....go home....get the ATV....go fetch him.....and come home. I take him/her up an old logging road to field dress.....then into my building to hang and quarter (and remove inner TL's and backstraps).
It woud work fine, for me to do it sans gutting.....if I ever gut shoot one.
