Heart and Liver
How many people here keep the heart and liver? I really enjoy these fried in onions and butter and so do my wife and kids. Theres been many a time I have walked up to someone gutting a deer and they leave these behind, they do not go to waist though, I carry extra plastic bags with me at all times while deer hunting.

I have ate the heart and liver before and although i thought it was ok i must admit i usually am guilty of leaving it behind. I hunt in otsego county ny, not too far from where they found some wild and captive deer with CWD in oneida county. I heard that in areas where there could be CWD to not eat internal organs. I'm sure all the deer i have shot have been fine, but i'm just a little paranoid i guess haha

I usually can't keep the heart cause there is such a huge hole in it
I keep the heart fairly often but never the liver. I just dont like the idea of eating an organ that removes toxins and waste products from the blood[:'(]

I take the heart of each deer i take and give it to a hunting buddy of mine. Me makes up a great stew with them. I have been told to not eat the liver though cause supposedly deer livers done dont clean themselves out. Not sure if that is true though.
