I do my own but an accaintance of mine took his deer in last year along with his wifes deer and when he went to go pick it up, the butcher told him there wasn't very much meat because the shoulders were blown off. My friend said both of his deer were shot behind the shoulder and he was actually given someone esles deer and had to pay $75.00 ea. If you don't know how to process deer, I suggest in investing in a meat grinder that you can get through Cabelas or Bass pro for a $100.00, money well spent. Bobby
