What fluids are you guys talking about? I have seen a few posts about "bleeding" better but it's the same as the old wives tail that you need to cut the deers throat so it will bleed out. A deer will not bleed out once it's heart stops beating. In Minnesota the deer freeze usually before we get them back from registering them so we just hang them however we feel like it at the time. We do skin down and cut the heads off like someone else on here posted though if it is head down.
