I consider Planter one of our good sources of info. He has probably done it at them temps and still been ok and is still here to talk about it! LOL!! I have always been told that the out side temp should not get above 45 in the high of day and no direct sun at them temps also. To me I would be nervous of anything over 50. I also am playing with the age meat game. I was not able to process MY eight point since I had to work the weekend after the hunt. But my BB was cut up the next afternoon and it is good eating. The next deer I can get and have time to cut up will be cut up ASAP if I can just to try and figure this aging stuff out for myself, to many mixed thoughts on it. I will also admit I worry about deer meat temps more then I should maybe. My BB was a fifteen dollar tag, that night I spent 40 bucks on ice till the next day! [&:]
