Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Deer Hunting First time processing my own

I have always done my own and used to use a saw and make cuts.

Now I bone it all and is sure saves freezer space.
Cut the quarters off of the hanging deer and this year a sat at a table deboning and removing most of the silverskin.

This year I used a 6" and sometimes 9" filet knife for removing the silverskin and for the most part that went really well.

We went to the commercial roll of plastic wrap and then place in freezer quality "Zip Loc" bags.

Next best thing to the vacuum sealed bags and far better than paper as near as I can tell.

I can tell you one thing, doing the work setting at a table sure made it easier on this old fat guy!
