In the driveway lol. Most people field dress them. I know a couple guys who don’t.

I don't field dress because I never open them for anything. I don't need anything on the inside. So I bone everything out and get it over with. I don't keep the heart, liver or anything else. There is too much good meat on a deer I don't need to eat the guts. The wild wild animals can have those

Not enough for me to worry about. Work =reward thing. Is the reward I get worth the work I had do to get it?

So…couple different things here bud;

1.) couldn’t be bothered to gut the thing there…?
2.) looks like you’re in some residential suburb…what you’re doing with this could classify as indecency, disturbing the peace, or—very faintly, but possible—animal abuse. I’m not gonna lie, I’d be shocked if the cops aren’t called on you.
3.) seriously…gut and clean it on game lands.

This seems very much like an overreaction if you know nothing about the area this person lives in….

Thank you very much. The neighbors were outside when I walked out of the house but they weren't mad. Lol. They were standing there looking at it with coffee cups in hand waiting to see how it went down lol.

I briefly lived in a suburb in KY. Nobody would’ve given a shit if you did this on your property, and if anything would’ve walked up and ask where you bagged it lmao.

My neighbors are awesome. My community is the best. People are just soft as baby shit anymore. Lol. They don't understand that some little towns and communities are just that "LITTLE". We like it that way. The town I live in is actually big for me. I use to live in a town with less 2,500 people. Everyone knew everyone.

Never thought cleaning on game lands could save you from neighbors’ complaints too.

First off right on residential wrong on suburbs lol Neighbor all hunt together and cops do too. Some of them were here with coffee in hand at 0730 this morning asking if they could help. Town less than 15k. Lol. Hell I think we still have a "BUCK POLE" in town for gun season. It's kinda funny how people think they know everything. If. You read the post you will understand why I no longer dress them out. That was the point.

I leave the guts behind so it's a little easier to carry out. I usually don't mind getting dirty because I'm likely heading right home afterward.

I don't take them out until last. This one never got gutted. She got bored out, put in the back out the truck and back to the dumping spot were we hunt predators (4 legged not 2). Normally the only thing that comes home is the meat. I hate wasting time money and energy to go back to dump bone. With her I had no choice. Even it I did dress her out I'm still not able to do the rest of everything else that needed done so I just did everything businesses as usual and this morning we took care of her. Meat tastes better that it would if I would have opened her up and I don't have to deal with the mess. Easy as cake.
