Is my deer meat spoiled??? (rookie question)
I shot it last evening, found it 16 hrs later.
Weather has been between 30-34 degrees.
Pretty good shot with my bow, enter behind shoulder, exited the 4th rib from the rear of the deer.
It was bloated when I found it, ....and it smells!!!
I just rinsed it out to see if there was just some bad stuff in there.
Did it sit too long? Am I able to keep anything? Or not risk it, and throw it away?
