RE: Gut piles
welcome to the forums "TY"...I found in the past that the deer dont really care about the gut piles. Ive actually seen them walk up to them and smell the area. but most likely if you have any preditors in the area they will clean it up in one night. So i wouldnt worry to much about dragging the deer out of the area... in my opinion as long as you didnt leave to much human scent in the area it shouldnt effect it too much.
