Well hard part doneI use to pride myself on zero meat or hide knife nicks...so those days are done. I have to say I'm surprised with hide off , he's not much bigger than the early do and hams are smaller. Neck way bigger. Zero fat but the hide was very thick. Ticks the size of raisins were constantly dropping on to card board under him and a slew of live lice. The hide bore the marks of all the ticks. . Well the meat saw is together and I need to remove loins and quarter him up. His very full bladder, both hocks(I remove before hanging), and his tail are in a baggy. Tail for decoy and the rest for gun hunt in a few days .
