I dress my deer the same way that Skeeter does. However, I would like to re-emphasize what Skeeter said about keeping the blade away from the organs by keeping two fingers underneath the blade. Me. I just keep a single finger underneath the balde, with the blade pointed upward, and I run the blade down to the rear. I use a small knife to do this. Trust me, not only do you not want to hit the bladder, but cutting the stomach or the intestines might make you throw up if you don't know what to expect, and sometimes even if you know what to expect. I use a bigger knife to cut through the ribs and as far up the neck as possible to give me a clean shot at the diaphragm and the windpipe.
As far as getting one is concerned, it is much easier nowadays compared to 20 years ago. There are a lot more deer around than there were a while ago.
