Dayum atlas. I will label you king processor! That's a whole lot of meat.

oh an afternoon elk my take a couple afternoons.

psssssssssssst.... everyones time is worth something. What's a deers life worth?

More than most even care to think about.

Read the lame azzed searches some post about and you will see the true lack of any appreciation of the greatest game animal on earth.

I guess if I can find joy in my time spent hunting them, I can find the time to process them, I don't mind the dirty part of hunting.

On Another note it is cold when I choose to hunt some don't have that option.

I do my own,my brother flew in from Az last yr and shot a nice buck out of my stand and wanted me to process it for him and I said no.I had to call to find a butcher to process it because Ive never taken one in before...glad I didnt pay for it.....

Do you all used vacumn sealed machines/bags or does anyone use freezer paper?

I admit to being a non-processor, but plan on doing it myself starting next season. Its getting too damn expensive. I just took a mature doe I shot yesterday to the processor. For tenderizing and 3 rolls of summer sausage its gonna cost me around $90!

I use a vacuum sealer for a lot of things, deer meat included. I am also starting to can things and would highly suggest that as a method for preserving. Canning stuff will last longer than freezing and you don't have to worry about the freezer dying (has happened to us) although I still will be using a freezer for large cuts of meat, bread, etc.
