warm weather hunting
#1
those of you that hunt in the warmer climate that process your own deer what do you do to keep your deer cool while hanging ? do you make a storage locker ? if so i'd like to see what inovative set ups some of you have.I personaly process mine right away at the begining of the season
but let it hang later in the season when its cold enough.I was just curios what the warmer weather hunters do that don't have the option to let it hang outside

cut some hole in between the ribs and put it in a tarp wrapped up and let the blood drain into that and it is ok at least it has been so far and if that bothers you just put a bag of ice on the outside of the tarp

Unless you have a locker, you almost have to cut 'em up really quick. For the past 3 years we did some crop damage hunts all summer. Try walking to your stand at 6:00 or 6:30 in the evening when it's still 95 degrees. Even wearing a T shirt, sneakers and shorts in, you were sweating when you got there. Throw a mesh leafy wear outfit over your T Shirt and try not to sweat(lots of luck). Then shoot a deer right at dark. Whoa, it is one hot deal, especially the drag. We'd drag them out, take 'em home, skin 'em, bone it out an put it on trays in the fridge for a couple days. A couple hours after they were shot they were chilling.
