RE: Dontcha think it ought to be mandatory?
What I meant by the post is......
I know guys who wouldnt hunt if they didn't have a place/person that will take their deer WHOLE (and I know a few guys like this). I give 'em credit for not killing deer with nowhere for the meat to go......but the lack of any interest in (in my opinion) "completing" the hunting experience (by at LEAST field dressing their animal)....means something to me.
If I were a butcher....I wouldn't take onethat wasn't at least field dressed......on principle.
