good samaritan primitive bothered by sight of hanging dead deer

[JohnnyReb]

Hanging a cross or garlic around ones neck will ward off vampires.....hanging deer in the front yard will ward off DUmmies....gotcha.....I will be cleaning rifles the rest of the day.

Sounds like the DUmmie has moved recently:

I'll be honest, when I left home for the military, and hunted at Ft. Gordon, I was lazy and used to just drop'em off at Lanier's Deer Processing, which was on the way home from TA 49 on Ft. Gordon, where I used to hunt. I'd pick it up in about a week. However, last deer I killed was a small 3 PT, that I thought was bigger. Kinda broke my heart and I never went back.

No, I'm not joining f'n PETA. You guys are free to send me any free venison you want to relinquish. 

Not to mention, it's very early, it's cold, .....I don't want to go. ....thank you Ron Tater Salad White. I prefer fishing.

We gotta get ya up here to the mitten in January out on Saginaw bay for perch Kev!

They were terror deer, sent by our enemies, and executed after a fair trial in the best and fairest legal system in the world!  And no, Mr. Holder will not be taking questions.

222. We don't want that touchy feely community idea of considering how others are affected. not in USA

I keep trying to explain to others on this board how our problems in this country are in our values. We are generally not a kind nor thoughtful nation of people. Until we do start to live life being kind and considerate to others we are going nowhere but downhill.

Dear Lord,
Thank you for giving me a husband that isn't this big of a *****.
Amen.

Speaking of ***** husbands....I'm probably the only person who gets sick watching that Enterprise Rental Car commercial. A couple is going away for the weekend, and the really cute wife holds up two little nighties, and asks, "Red, or black?" Her total ***** of a husband answers "Both".  Clearly, the only correct non-***** answer is "Neither". But maybe that's just me.

The good samaritan primitive lives up over in Michigan, though.

Maybe the rules are different?

I suspect it was more than one hunter who caught the three Bambii.

You have to pull tags here Frank. Also she must be a transplant from somewhere else. This is a huge deer hunting state and i know of no hunter here who would hang a deer by it's neck! Even alot of the liberals here hunt!

[AllosaursRus]

Yep,as soon as is practical you gut them and then wash them out keeping the body cavity open to allow for a quick cooling of the meat.

Actually, depending on the temp, I've hung deer as long as 2 weeks. Makes an old buck with a huge rack edible. Best and easiest way I know to tenderize fresh meat. Otherwise the oldsters are as tough as shoe leather around here. Course the temp has to be freezing or less. Ever read Shogun? The Brit leading character hung a pheasant for 2 weeks until it smelled rotten. The Japs thought he was un-civilized. He thought it was the only way to cure wild game.

If you're lucky enough to live around alfalfa fields, you can eat deer the next day! Unfortunately up here in N. Idaho, our whitetails eat brush. They smell and taste like the brush they eat. Hanging them for a period of time helps with the gamey taste. "Toots' won't eat 'em until I "cure" them properly.

Ya have to remember DUmmies embelish thier bouncies. Hanging them by the neck most likely is for effect on their audience. I personally have never seen a deer hung like this DUmbass describes. Not even by novices. Every hunter I have ever known had a patriarch standing behind them for their first deer.

Right but you still have to gut them and get the carcass cooling as soon as possible.
After that the curing process is at least a week in 40ish temps if possible.

Exactly...it is learned from a young age.

I wish we had more deer hunting where I am in N. Ga. I live in a gated community, not exactly wooded prime land, and I had 7 deer in my yard this morning. 2 were having a chat, one leaning on the mailbox smoking a cigarette, and the rest just gamboling around on the patio, drinking water off the hottub cover.

Okay, maybe there wasnt any cigarettes or chatting involved, but the rest is true......can I qualify that as a bouncy? Always wanted to write one.

Did one of them tell another how things were so much better now, now that the Obamessiah is president?

[vesta111]

I cannot remember as it has been a long time since my family hunted deer,but something about gutting them comes to mind. Something about being careful not to pierce the bladder or intestines as it will poison the meat----or am I thinking hogs?

No way should a deer be hung inside a garage, barn or shed----Deer ticks you know.

Even when a deer or Moose is field dressed they still have to be hung . How does a hunter get a 1,200 pound Moose out of the woods, do they bring in a back hoe.?

I believe it is just tradition to hang a deer by the back legs.  With 2 hunters it is easier to portage the carcass out of the woods  on a pole head down. The Indians hung them as they got home on the pole from 2 trees, less handling.

There's a mixed opinion of hanging a deer by it's head or by it's rear legs. I forget the reasoning. Most opt for hanging a deer by it's rear legs.

Anyways, I'm pretty sick and tired of people thinking that deer are some sort of animal to be revered. They are nothing but edible vermin. They cause many human deaths throughout the year, create damages in the MILLIONS of Dollars to personal property and MILLIONS of Dollars in damage to crops throughout the year. I saw a TV show on Animal Planet the other day. It was showing some rescue of a deer that was in a lake. IMO, THAT was a waste of taxpayer Dollars, but the idiots don't seem to care about that!! If it had survived on it's own, that would have been great. Had it drowned and died, no big deal, IMO. It would have become fish food. Do I like deer?? Yes and no. They are good to eat, but other than that, they are merely HUGE rats with horns (sometimes).

[Thor]

In the Northlands, hanging deer for a few days is the norm. It all depends on the weather. When I was hunting in MN, if it was cold,( <40°F) we'd hang them until we were ready to leave and go home. They would be processed at a later date. There were a few times when we had warm weather and were forced to butcher them ourselves and get them on ice right away.

Agree 100%! I love to deer hunt and eat venison, but if d-Con made deer poison I'd buy it by the case for my backyard.

D-Con doesn't . . . but Remington, Winchester, Federal, Nosler, Hornady, Cor-Bon, Buffalo Bore, etc., do.

I know. I use Nosler bullets in reloading for my deer rifles. But they are a little too energetic for a suburban neighborhood of one-acre lots.

I saw something on marlinowners.com a day or so ago, about a guy who wants to put a suppressor on an 1895 Guide Gun.  I suppose that is one approach that could be used.

So would taking up archery.
