Leaving the processor and thought.... - 11/20/14 03:25 PM
Hey guys and gals.. Long time reader..first time posting. I am sure this question has been beat to death but.... I was leaving the processor last weekend.. I dropped off 2 hind quarters and 2 front shoulders.. leaving the backstrap,neck and tenderloins in my cooler.. The processor kept my tag.. I was in Hamilton,Texas driving to Carrollton.. If I were to get stopped.. and there is no tag for the remaining parts I brought home.. Well..you know the rest.. What is the correct procedures within the law to drop off a portion of your deer and travel home with the rest??

Or if its already cut up and frozen its considered to have reached its final destination already... but best to go ahead and do a W.R.D... they are easy to do and can print them off on the line... think there is one in the annual book to

That is because we understand hunting can not be catch and release.

I had the same question the year before last when my processor starting insisting on having the kill tag - and my taxi was also requesting it. The processor said their receipt for drop-off is considered a WRD (they put the license, etc. info on it).
I was skeptical, but as luck would have it - when I got to taxi after dropping off the meat at the processor, there was a hard-[censored] GW checking everyone. I handed over the processor receipt and started to stammer an explanation, and he waved me off and told me it was perfectly fine.
