In this week's Deer Season 365 podcast episode, we're talking with Terry Kerns of Edgewood Meat Locker all about deer processing. Not so much how to process your deer, but more about how to handle your deer in the field prior to having it processed. We also dive into common questions hunters have about deer processing, like whether the meat they get is actually their deer, and why it may seem like you're not getting as much venison back as you should. Learn the answers to these questions and more by giving this week's episode a listen!
