    18kg of trimmed venison with about 1kg of scraps for dog food. A bit of care on the hill makes it much easier back home.

    Nicely butchered and packaged! Just need some labels so in 8 months time you’re not wondering what this is when you fish it out of the freezer! I add dates to them as well.

    I respect your beliefs but don't impose them on me.

    Red bands and bullers are feet wreckers.
    Out beyond ideas of wrongdoing, and right-doing, there is a field. I will meet you there.

    It’s been posted here before somewhere, my preference is to remove both back legs, leaving the skin intact between them across the rump.
    So many upsides:
    - very little meat exposed to flys leaves & dirt
    - it’s lighter to carry as you’re not carrying the pelvic bone
    - it’s quite comfortable sitting on your shoulders, just soft meat, no bones
    - clean to carry you don’t have blood running down your neck like you tend to carrying hindquarters intact
    - cools faster than a whole hindquarter
    That sounds like a good system. I assume you leave the bones in the legs ?
