Success! You've just shot a buck or bull. But should the fun really stop there? Not really. You'll shift gears, sure, but the process of getting great photos in the field, then field processing and breaking down your animal and packing it out can be very rewarding. 

This episode, we take an in-depth look at three steps: 

PHOTOGRAPHY

  • Positioning your animal
  • Using the light 
  • Positioning the hunter
  • Setting up the camera
  • Framing the photo
  • LOOKING and SEEING what's in the viewfinder
  • Snapping the shot

Field Dressing & the Gutless Method

  • Traditional gutting: Pros, Cons, & How-to
  • Gutless Method: skinning, quartering, & lifting off backstraps
  • Removing bones

Packing Out

  • Cooling meat
  • Meat sacks & flies
  • Loading your backpack
  • Working without injury
  • Aging meat on ice
