This thread cracks me up, in the interest of not being wasteful I am assuming that most people that are critical here are using all the deer. Necks, ribs, stew meat cut from thehard to reach spots, etc. Hell don"t forget the heart, liver, tongue, orskin.A filipino friend of mine makes deer rinds out of the skin andswears they are the greatest thing on earth, I wouldn't know because I just wastethat part. Whatever I don't want I give away, whatever I don't see fit to process I feed my buddies hunting dogsor other random critters. What about the ham/front legmeat from the bend/knuckle to the hoof? There's a couple of small banana sized strips of meat there and I'm sure all you guys are using those every time, right? I mean that would be part of the 4 quarters.

I see...... we only have to use the meat the game book says, then you are not being wasteful and lazy, even though you could technically use almost every other part of the animal you want, the "book" doesn't say you have to.


Why wouldn't you process a small deer shoulder?

7mm or heavy buckshot damage.

Ever seen a shoulder that a broadhead stuck into and then the deer ran 100 or more yards with with the broadhead in there working, it's real nice.
