Do you dress your small game in the field?

rhubarb,
Do you only dress small game in the colder months? Or do you have lighter cotton or silk clothes for the pig for the summer?:neener:
 
I just like it cause I can do it year round and I'm looking for a good reason to tramp around in the woods. I think I will try to bait some coyotes as time goes by. The area is 865 acres and it's like a mile from my house. Eventually I'll be going for deer but I need a freezer before I do that. A slug barrel for my SG too now that I think about it. The list gies on... :rolleyes:
 
gut in the field and skin at home i usually skin squirrel by the water spigot to wash the hair off the meat.
 
Before this goes to far into the gutter.

In the field.

It only took one time of bringing pheasants home (it was a very cold day) and cleaning them in the kitchen that Household 6, CINC-House, SWMBO, aka Mrs Scout pronounced that not only am I banned from ever cleaning any animal in HER kitchen ever again, but if she ever found so much as one feather, yours truly would be the very next thing that got field dressed and cleaned......with a very dull knife.......while still alive.
 
scout26,
I didn't know that my dad was on the form. Or that mom's name was Mrs. Scout.:neener:

I do agree as I try to climb back on the high road. If there's a Mrs. involved, her opinion is much more important than un internet dorks. Cleaning in the field is best, you're giving back to nature. It keeps the coyotes feed.
 
With doves and quail, I've always cleaned them in the kitchen if I'm not hunting too far from home. If I'm hunting pheasants on a pheasant farm, there's usually someplace to clean them at the farm.
 
It depends. Clean them at home (outside) if near home, in the field of it's gonna be a while.
