Gutless Field Dressing

by Woodsbum

Here is a great video that shows how to field dress an elk in less than 10 minutes via the “gutless field dressing” method.

If you are wanting to save the hide to tan out, then this would NOT be the method to use unless you wanted a lot of small chunks of leather to work. I personally fight with the animal so that I can tan out each and every hide I collect. The leather is then used for various projects I have throughout the year.

For those that are deep in the woods and just need to get the meat out, I think I would definitely recommend this method.

Good luck and happy hunting this upcoming season!

Field Dressing and Processing Deer

by Woodsbum

I get a lot of questions from new hunters about field dressing and processing game animals. When I come across excellent videos such as this that provide a step by step set of instructions, I try and share as much as possible. It only helps those learning to hunt and increases the self sufficiency of those that already hunt but don’t process their own game.

Enjoy and take notes!!!!
