Its pretty standard just as everone stated, definately hang it as it makes it much easier. It would help a lot if you could have someone experianced step you through it the first time. The one thing I would add is get the skin off it ASAP as soon as you get home, helps the flavor and lets the meat cool faster...and less chance for hair to get everywhere....since i hunt a more northern climate, i can let it hang untill cool most of the time.
