A big cooler is a must have IMO. If its warm get it gutted, skinned and in the cooler ASAP then you have time to work with.
Our youth season is early and usual warm. When my daughter shoots a deer we gut it,ice the cavity and put it straight in a cooler hide and all. We leave the plug out of the cooler so it stays as dry as possible,
