Darn! My butchering process is MUCH slower this year! Both girls want to help, so we started with quartering out last night and taking the heads off. We discovered that the bigger of the two bucks is actually a 5x4 - it has a weird little point coming out of each base, straight forward. Almost buried in fur, but still an inch long. Now I have to wait for them to get home from school to get them started on boning out shoulders... I know this will eventually speed the butchering in future years, but I have to make the time investment now, which is driving me nuts... smile
