First, kudos to you for donating the meat instead of wasting it. Can the person you give the deer to pay for processing? Seems like a small price for all that venison. The price for processing in my area averages about $60/deer. Not sure what it is by you. If I didn't/couldn't hunt, I would gladly pay the $60.
Is that all, i guess our butcher has a nice monopoly going because it is around 300 dollars to have one processed (he is the only one in the area). i process them my self it only takes around 4 hours to have him deboned and turned into various types of sausage and jerky.
