How about one more pic of the animal dressed and on the table? Please invite Gunner and me and we´ll bring the wine.
That was last year (old thread this is). But do have some photos of this year's spread. Haven't had the chance to upload 'em. Gunner's always welcome to partake. Had hoped to "give" him a Christmas day deer, but they were scarce. Fixin' to head out again in a just a little bit. (However, the rifle of the week isn't a milsurp, or even a military caliber- 25-06. It also could be considered jinxed, as it has yet to fire a round in the field after 8 or so years, but I'm not particularly superstitious. Maybe, though, I'll try the "armageddon" Knight's tomorrow.)
Good to know I'm not the only one who owns jinxed guns.:madsmile:

The smoker. There were deer not 20m from it a few hours earlier, and it had already been cooking all night.

Deer ribs- not my best effort, but managed to save some that were tasty. Last year's were better.
