I need to take quite a few doe on my place this year and I don't know what to do with all of them. I am the only person that hunts the place and I don't have enough room to store all the meat. I've contacted the game warden and he told me I could donate it to the prison if I had MLD permits, but I do not and he didn't know of anyone in need. What do you guys suggest?

Without MLD, how are you tagging them and how many are you planning on shooting?
Many of the processors participate in "feed the hungry" programs. Also, churches have taken them as donations.

It is mine. I just can't let people go out there because it's a family place in a small town, with lots of people, with big mouths, that love to talk about places that have big deer. Anyhow, why let anyone else shoot my deer? I want to kill my own doe, just need to find a place for a few (under 20 more than 10).

IF YOU DONT HAVE MLD then you dont have tags for them, so legally you dont have the right to shoot them without having someone else do it for you, sounds like you either are chit out of luck or about to break the law.

I take my sister and girlfriend (see earlier posts) that both have licenses and do hunt sometimes, but I didn't start this thread for legal advice. I could always just dump them in a draw and forget about them, but I am making an effort to seek advice. That should provide enough credit to my case, so answer the question and quit using all caps. No one wants to read that ****.

You, your wife, and sister need to shot the doe y'all have TAGS for and either donate the meat hunters for the hungry or give it to a less fortunate family. Don't dump them in the ditch, that's just crazy talk.

Offer guided hunts to underprivilege kids and/or war veterans to kill a doe since you're "the only person that hunts the place".

Buy a chest freezer and shoot the 9 does that the 3 of you are allowed and be done with it.

Mills county is a five deer county A.B. I assume this is in the Childress area and don't know the law up there. Problem solved here in a hurry.

Anyhow, why let anyone else shoot my deer? I want to kill my own doe, just need to find a place for a few (under 20 more than 10). 1 - Every deer killed must be legally tagged. 2 - If the property isn't in the MLDP system a hunter is limited to the counties bag limits. 3 - Dumping them in a draw or any action or inaction that renders the meat unsuitable for human consumption is waste of game. This is why you got "legal" advice, seems you don't know, don't care or want to circumvent the rules. If you want to kill 10 ~ 20 and the property isn't in MLDP system you'll have to have people with appropriate tags available kill them. What makes them your deer? After you figure out how to legally kill / tag the doe you can find a place to donate them here ---> Hunters for the Hungry
