RE: what is the longest you would wait to skin a deer and get the meat off it
If the temps are gonna get up over 40* then its a good idea to get it done a.s.a.p.
If the temps stay around the 25-30 mark....3-4 days hanging aint a worry.
Any temps over 50-60 and you better get it done that day....better safe than sorry...skin or no skin on.
Just my .02
