The ONLY way to skin a deer. We've been doing this for about 6-7 years now and won't consider any other way.
1) Hang deer by neck, off the ground (with a strong rope)
2) Saw deer legs off at "chins"
3) Cut around neck and down from neck to just between front shoulders (or a tad lower)
4) Pull/skin down far enough to wrap and tie a strong rope around a golf ball (or golf ball size rock, or slightly larger) on the inside of the skin at back of deer's neck.
5) Tie other end of this rope to hitch/bumper of truck
6) Now, EASE forward and watch the skin turn inside out as it comes off the deer like a shirt.
7) Have a person or two support the critter as the skin releases from the end of the deer or it will swing back and hit whatever it's tied to!
8) Gut and clean as usual.
