Gutting Deer

[Steverino]

All I can say is God bless you Razmuz for keep on keeping on! I hope that when I'm older, I'll be blessed with children that love the outdoors as much as I do to help give me a hand as well.

I've hunted many times with groups of friends and family and the older fellas were afforded shooter positions when the rest of us whipper-snappers drove game to them. The way that I look at it, it all comes full circle.

With that being said, I have found Razmuz, that getting your harvested animal elevated up even a little...will allow gravity to take over. I use a small folding Cabelas Guide Series lockback knife. A small incision under the skin between parted fingers and run up to the throat, will usually then empty the contants of the cavity when you roll your animal on it's side. If you have large game, it's still gonna be work but I have found that gravity does a nice job for you if you let it.

Fabs, I have never used them but have seen some slick looking lightweight folding wheeled game carriers advertised in some of my hunting magazines. Perhaps your older hunting buddy could look into one of these. Anybody ever use one of these??
