Default Deer Hair

Does anyone have any tips on how to take off the hair that gets on your Deer meat, thats faster than tweezers. Tack Cloth perhaps?

One thing you can do is before you cut the animal up is wash it with a mixture of vinger and water, then let dry completly and then you can cut it up, won't get as much hair or any on the meat.

AFTER YOU CUT YOUR PRIMAL AND SUB PRIMAL CUTS CLEAN YOUR AREA WITH COLD WATER AND RINSE OFF YOUR MEAT WITH COLD WATER.

Spend $15 and buy a propane torch. Just quickly run the lit torch over the entire deer while it's hanging. The hairs will pop and disappear. This leaves no ill-affects, and takes EVERY hair off. The butchers have been doing this to hogs and poultry for 100 years.

Hope this helps!

Those sound like great Ideas to me.
I never would of thought to burn the hair off first, but it makes perfect sense......Thanks.....May your arrows stay straight .




I'll have to go out and shoot a big buck to try out your ideas...Thanks guys.... <font size=6></font id=size6><img src=icon_smile_big.gif border=0 align=middle>

COD, if you skin it correctly, you shouldn't have but a few hairs on the meat. When that happens, we just take a damp cloth in cool water and wipe it down.

If you hang it upside down, the skin should pull off with out leaving but maybe a hair or two !!!

&quot;If it sounds and looks too good to be true, it probably is !&quot;
