Just started deer hunting heavy what is proper way to dispose of deer remains

Buzzards got to eat too!!! If you gut them in the field, a day or 2 later there will be nothing left!!!

If you gut your deer back at camp haul the remains off to a spot away from camp. Nobody wants to smell decomposing remains. Other than that coyotes, hogs, buzzards, etc will take care things in short order.

I like to dump all my remains in the middle of my back field where I can see them. Then after two or three days, I can sometimes kill a coyote eating them. Several times I've gotten two coyotes, but a few times I haven't been able to get a single one because they haul it all off during the night. For whatever reason, an hour or so after daylight is when I see them the most often.

Maybe it's just me but I would also drag the remains away from any areas frequented by game animals (feeder, stand, food plots, etc.). I don't really know if a gut pile disturbs deer and other game animals but I am not one to take a chance.

I usually dump them in a spot I can see from my stand. Never seems to bother the deer.

10-4 thanks guys much appreciated

On the fence next to your neighbor who has insisted on placing his stand 30 yards off your fence line.

There were two groups of hunters fighting over the fence line hunting out where I hunt. (My ranch wasn't involved). Anyway, things escalated and one group started dumping all their carcasses on the fence line by the neighbors feeder; deer, turkey, ducks, etc. Other group called the GW and he gave them one day to move the pile or he was writing them a ticket.

Gut them were they fall most of the time. Take the bones to the where I pile the yotes, coons and hogs to be cleaned up.

We just have a pile we throw it all on a few hundred yards from camp put guts hide etc in tractor bucket and go dump.

I grew up in the city... I can tell you the trash man doesn't enjoy hauling off bloody feed sacks full of deer parts

Depends. A lot of times I clean them where they die, but if it is at a feeder or corn pile, I will drag them off just a little ways. Most the doe, I go ahead and carry them to the pit where we dump bones and disposables. We have a designated place outside of camp for all carcasses.

Most deer camps have an out-of-the-way spot often called the "Bone Pile" or something like it were coyotes and other scavengers clean up the remains.

Take em out where you can watch over them and wait on the coyotes. Good coyote bait for a day or 2.

Normally gut in field but throw rest about 100 yards west of camp. Our yotes will clean anything up in about 24 hours. 200 lb hog will be gone in 3 days.

John are you serious? All you have to do is walk to my office and ask . Good god.

This^^^ We call our place where we do this the "bone yard!"

Agree

Always where they fall as far as the guts. Have been on properties that had a specific area near camp, so in those instances, did it there. ill say, never had one fall by my feeder and have never noticed game getting spooked by a gut pile, may get spooked at the vermin that come to eat it though.

Have a skinning room with guts, spine, etc. into a large gut bucket at my ranch. These remains and those of excess hogs go to an area we also call the "bone yard."

most ranches or deer camps will have an area for dumping that sort of stuff. or at least a policy of how to proceed. I've been on everything from "gut them where they fall...throw it anywhere except near my house"....to "all deer are gutted in this one place and all guts are put in this specific one place"

abide by what your land owner asks. even after a deer is gutted....you still bring home a certain amount of hide and bones. most trash folks don't like this. if you have to do it....disguise it best you can. wrap it up well in trash bags or old feed sacks. we'd put ours in the freezer until the morning of trash day and throw it out then.

it is illegal to dump animal remains on the side of a public road. even lonely county roads. if you get caught doing it, you will get fined. just be aware.

We have a Gut Pit, but if it's Crappie I clean I usually invite Txshntr to lunch and toss in the bed of his truck when he's not looking

We have that "special" place and between the buzzards and coyotes nothing is there very long.

you could put em in the livin room, as long as the door is open they be gone by 2am
