Just for clarification.What I meant by throwing it in to a pick up truck bed had to do with filth.Nothing else.I would expect that most of us intend to eat what we kill.I am not going to put the body of a deer on top on engine grease,household garbage and other like things.
I am fine with the balance that I believe I have with the respect that I have for deer and how I care for the meat after the kill.
With things being typed here it is impossible to tell the tone or intent of some one's message.The animal get's it due from me nothing more,nothing less!

I agree, once the body cavity is opened, care for the meat should be of utmost concern.

I take only what I can eat.. and no more. If thats not respect I don't know what is.

If someone I know personally asks me to kill one for them, I might. But this whole thing of killing 6 does/fawns and then just dropping off at hunters for the hungry, I just don't agree with. I would find it disrespectful.

Here's where I agree 100%. I see guys who just want to kill to kill and then struggle to find a place to donate them. Thats not cool. IMO.

Feeding venison to people who need food is somehow disrepectful? What difference does it make it eats the deer?

People mostly do it because they want to kill something, not because they want to feed the poor.
But no truer (if thats a word) words have been spoken.

Wanna kill something? Wanna know how many deer I passed on this year?
There's an important piece of this puzzle that's getting conveniently ignored. Do they need killing? I guess I'm damned to get caught in the crossfire. People want to belittle my hunting....citing the deer herd numbers, here. And when you try to thin it.....you get chastised for that, too.
Rest assured.....there is ALWAYS someone here that needs food.
