[QUOTE="Omega, post: 5145633, member: 20060"] I guess I am super picky, I rarely leave a deer for longer than it takes me to get to it, once I know it's dead. I do age my deer at 34-36 deg., for a week or so but anything above 40 deg the chances of bacteria growth goes way up so I make it a point to cool the carcass down as quick as possible. I have a cooler full of ice on standby to fill the cavity for deer I kill for friends since a processor may not be readily available. I skin and quarter my deer right on my gambrel and get it into the cooler within a few hours of killing it. The longest I have ever left a deer was maybe two hours, and that didn't go well as I had unknowingly nicked the stomach and lost a whole bunch of good venison. [/QUOTE]
