may sound like a silly question but

[JPTfellterrier 65]

as it says can you eat a deer that has been shot in the gut or does that make it not fit to eat?

[JPTfellterrier 65]

come on.....someone must no

[riohog 5,701]

yes you can but you must clean it out thouroughly or the meat will

be tainted with the stomach contents

[JPTfellterrier 65]

so how long does it take to get tainted?and do you mean it would like have to be hozed out?

[riohog 5,701]

it wants to be done quickly and you can hose it but no garantee the meat

 

will be any good give it to the dogs!!

[JPTfellterrier 65]

ah right we were right.....was told it would give the dogs the runs!

[tommydeer 2]

Hows about you go and take a cut off the haunch and cook it....then make your own assumption!

 

You can eat venison thats been shot badly, obviously. BUT you may end up squinting slightly, whilst chewing quickly with a drink to hand!

ah right we were right.....was told it would give the dogs the runs!

venison will give your dogs the runs if they arnt used to it.mix it with fatty foods as venison has very little ft on it.

This is true. A deer that has been gut shot is not really a lost cause for the table. Generally the front and back legs should be fine. The saddle may become tainted.

 

It all really depends how long the rumen (stomach contents) have been sloshing around in the beast since being shot.

[perthshire keeper 1,239]

any good stalker will graloch a deer as soon as posible well saying that any good stalker wont arse end one!! if its not shot too far up its only the skirt that will be buggard maybe the chump if its hit well back if you can pop the leggs of at the rear goint the take the ribs of inbetween the 6th and 7th then work your way down untill you start hitting damaged or green meat as long as you aviod the nasty bits it will be fine hope this helps if not just ask

[sauer 2]

well said perthshire keeper, i beleive that you should make every attempt to get whatyou can off of the beast if damaged in ANY way, that way you showing maximum respect for the quarry.

 

as for a "bad shot" doesnt matter how good you are, or get you'll muttle a beast in some way getting there...EVERYONE takes a bad shot at somepoint....

 

wouldnt "learn" otherwise

 

as long as you take suomething away from it and learn and take what you can fae the beast and enjoy it...mmmm
