Ted Newgent 4,896 Posted December 1, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 1, 2018 just butchered up the deer and pig. loads of fat on the deer to be fair,nice size buck.filleted out the backstraps separated the legs muscles out for roasts. one shoulder was battered from the shot, so cut around and trimmed off both shoulders.16lbs of meat just dropped off at the butchers for some honey garlic beer sticks. wild boar.......well the 308 wasnt kind on it.both shoulders just fckd lol back legs were just over my hand size so kept them whole,filleted out the back straps also. just waiting now for a coyote trapper to head over to collect all the carcasses for his bait site. my mate is just out now waiting on the deer.the heavy beamed 4 pointer which i was hoping to plug didnt quite leave the tree line so mate couldnt get a clean shot.he still has 30mins left of shooting time as i type. he has til tomorrow to nail the fckr i think its cocktail time now 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Ted Newgent 4,896 Posted December 7, 2018 Author Report Share Posted December 7, 2018 Since the pigs have been decimating the deer feed at one bait spot i have changed it around. just strapped a plastic 45 gallon drum to a tree. Only on the front facing side there is 5/6 holes drilled 1 1/4 inches in diameter this allows the grain to flow a bit out so the deer can feed and those damn pesky pigs cant rock up and eat it all in one go. i also put a lid over the hole i cut to prevent elk/moose getting their heads stuck in the barrel. i will get pics when i head down next. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
