[QUOTE="backyardtndeer, post: 4966390, member: 16465"] When I started processing our own I bought a book from Monte Burch. Thought it was helpful then (probably over 20 years ago) but have not looked at it in a long time. Gutting your deer the first time, take your time. I have seen guys that have been hunting all their life cut themselves. A gut hook is nice to have but not necessary. I usually use my gerber gator folding knife or one of my guthooks to open the deer up then a smaller knife inside the cavity. Bigger is not better inside the cavity, it is easy to knick or cut yourself if not careful. Skinning and quartering you want a sharp knife. A good fillet knife is helpful for getting the meat close to the bone when cutting out the backstraps and inner loins. A cordless recip saw for cutting bone is helpful, bimetal blades work well.
