[QUOTE="Maddog, post: 354945, member: 5355"] Well I am changing my ways after 50+ years of processing deer. Next deer is getting hung up head down. I am going to remove the trachea for drainage of an internal fluids/blood. Thanks for everyone that posted their ways. It was interesting to read comments/opinions. I still like skinning head up as I get virtually no hair on the carcass as the hide sort of comes off just like you would be taking off your long underwear. (Analogy LOL) I think I will hang head down. Skin head up and then flip to legs up to butcher. The one thing I thoroughly detest about cutting/deboning while hanging head up is it spins on me. (Not smart enough to figure out how to stop that. Ha) Hanging legs up will get rid of that in short order. Plus as one guy wrote it will put it at a better working height for me - short ceiling in garage. Thanks again, all of your comments are appreciated. [/QUOTE]
