Hey guys. This is my first time to shoot anything but a dove or duck. I shot him at Aransas NWR yesterday. It was harder than I thought it would be to field dress him. But, I was able to figure it out. Unfortunately I forgot to bring something to saw bone with, which made it a bit more difficult. I got him dropped off at the processor today. I can’t wait to try the back straps and chorizo. I need to learn how to process the meat myself next time.

Backstrap will dry out very quickly depending on how you cook it.

He's got some badarse choppers.
