The tenderloins do not make it past breakfast and are smothered in onions. In our Deer camp there is no chlorestol, fat content etc.. or healthy issues, it is all good old fashioned eating without the worry, the way it should be grease in all. A few times a year will not kill you. IMO
A shot square through the Lungs is your best bet for saving Meat. The Very Little bit of Rib Meat lost on that shot whould be Hardly Noticeable. A Neck Shot Ruins that Meat the Same as a Shoulder Shot. And Im Sorry but I Refuse to Shoot a Deer in the Head, Unless of course He's trying to Kill Me
