Most of the problem with beef is ecoli, that comes from feces. when meat comes in contact with feces.If your carfull when butchering yourdeer there should be no problem eating it with a pulse.
Exactly. As long as you don't get a gut shot or get feces all over your meat you can eat all your meat as rare as it can get. If you do though any meat that came in contact with feces or stomach contents should be separated and cooked thoroughly or removed and thrown out so as to not contaminate the rest of the meat. The main problem in slaughterhouses is that sometimes a piece or two slips through and makes the grinder once in the grinder it comes has the possibility to come in contact with thousands of pounds of uncontaminated meat before the grinder is cleaned and sanitized contaminating a lot of meat. This leads to large recalls of hamburger.
