Quick queston about transporting deer

[CADDOKILLER]

So my buddy and I are going to the lease this weekend and don't have rom for 2 big coolers and our other stuff. If we both shoot deer can we quarter them and put them both in one cooler?

I think so keep proof of sex.

Make sure you have enough parts to complete two animals.. ie 8 quarters, 2 proofs of sex..
I got checked at a processor and caught flack for missing a quarter (..gave to a ranch hand).. not sure why..had both heads.. he was just grumpy i guess.

Like systemnt said just have all the parts and heads you should be fine we have never had any issues.

[mharris1]

yep. like said above, just keep the heads and dont have too many quarters

[TX kyleboy]

I understnd teh problem with too many quarters, but too few. Nice deal sharing with the ranch hand. Guess nixt time you'll have to give him a backstrap.

The following is a TPWD reg:

The four quarters and two backstraps are the only parts of a deer required by law to be kept in edible condition.

If you can't fit both you can salt what won't fit and it will stay good for a day or so, then was off salt and bleed out in a cooler. Like my dad always said," kill em first than worry about the rest"
