Corral Deer Processing

Corral Deer Processing

According to the processor, my yearling buck weighed about 95 pounds. It was the cleanest kill I think I ever made, high neck, no damage to any meat. I asked for cubed steaks, some sausage and then hamburger. When I got home, I weighed the packages. Weight: just under 12 pounds, of which 2 pounds were fat added to the sausage. While deer 1 was being processed, I took deer 2, a doe (chest shot with some meat loss in rib cage area and back of left front leg just above knee, i.e., a fairly routine chest shot) in for processing. Total weight of meat from that doe which weighed in at 96 pounds: nineteen pounds, including the fat added to the sausage. Conclusion: From two deer with a combined weight of 191 pounds, I got less than 30 total pounds of meat. I am not very bright, and I have only been a hunter for just over 42 years. It seems to me that I should have ended up with more than 28 pounds of meat. By mutual agreement, I am no longer a customer of Corral Deer Processing.
