Default deer left overnight

Several years ago I was told my an older hunter that if you cut into stomach accidently, you should pour baking soda over the area to neutralize any stomach fluids( sorta like us taking alka seltzer for excess stomach acids) I tried it once before on a deer I had gut shot and there was no gamey taste. Also he told me to pour black pepper over all exposed meat in warm weather to keep flies and other insects off. that works too and washes off easily, and what stays doesn't bother the meat.
One more thing- I'm a meat hunter. Taken my share of bucks, but also does, and a couple fawns, also have let plenty of them walk. I love to hunt for deer, I started a few years ago butchering my own and since have never tasted "gamey" meat Go figure!
