Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Have you ever gutted a deer for a new hunter?

Dwayne,

I've helped several newbies but the most memorable was a chiropractor friend of mine named Loren. He's a really nice guy with what I'd call a good office job. Very sterile sort of guy I guess. He shot that buck (far left) in our late season hunt at the end of Oct. and it was still in velvet. The antlers were rubbery feeling and we called it "the FREAK"! LOL. (Turns out it had no balls.)

I had assumed he would be a bit squeamish but the guy impressed me. Not only was he not weirded out by the blood and guts, but he had a pretty good idea what to do. While we were dragging that sumbitch outta there I started asking questions. Turns out he had a bunch of anatomy classes under his belt and had spent a bunch of time dissecting cadavers in college. Kinda cool.

He helped me with my little buck the next day on the last day of the season.
