Never understood the whole debris concern because I spray mine out before doing anything with them. From first incision to cleaned out, it took me 5 minutes to gut Kaydence's deer. For me, it's easy but I get that it's not for others. Especially the ones with wimpy stomachs like @giles 
I've seen guys not paying attention when dragging deer out and end up with the entire stomach cavity coated in leaves and other woods debris. I have noticed that if I split the pelvis when field dressing I get more dirt on the rear quarters when dragging. So I only use that technique in short drags or when the sxs can get close.Never understood the whole debris concern because I spray mine out before doing anything with them.

It would probably take me 30-40 min or so and I'd be almost guaranteed to bust the piss sack. Lol.Never understood the whole debris concern because I spray mine out before doing anything with them.

I've never hunted anyplace that has running water or a hose. Usually just a tree limb and a rope/gambrel.
One things for damn sure. If I had to hunt in the canyons and peaks out at strouds, I wouldn't haul anything out I didn't have to! I barely escaped with my life last time!!
Did you ever order that “Life Alert”?It would probably take me 30-40 min or so and I'd be almost guaranteed to bust the piss sack. Lol.

Well, I came home to cut meat full time. My wife is working from home, and homeschooling our daughter. I want to be home with them and do what I love! It's been awesome so far.
Well of course you don't have to field dress an animal, but it speeds up the cooling process just like getting the hide off. The issue with leaving the guts in really only matters when you are hunting in very warm weather, like it is down south right now. Cooling down the meat as quickly as possible is paramount if you care about how it tastes, and that is why I always remove the guts immediately unless it is freezing cold outside. I have butchered a mule deer on the ground just like he did in the video, and it is a pain in the ass compared to butchering while you are standing up, but if you have to carry the meat and horns on your back for many miles in the mountains, you don't have a choice. I don't think you can harvest the heart without opening up the chest. I always like to see what the deer I shoot have been eating recently, so I always cut open the stomach and rummage to see what is in there after I get the guts out and away from the carcass.
My son wanted to ride today. Was a gorgeous day for it. Had stuff to do. Put it to the side in order to make memories. Took off. Rode 10-15min. Pulled into a park. Got off and said " Hop off. I'm riding your bike. You are going to ride Pawpaw's Triumph." This is my son's first summer with a motorcycle. My dad passed away over 7 years ago. His motorcycle is a very prized possession of mine. The sentimental value is immeasurable to me. He never saw it coming. Not this summer. Maybe he thought he would have never had a chance to ride his Grandpa's bike. I dunno. I just know he was still beaming an hour after we got home.
