What's the easiest and fastest way to skin a deer without mauling the hide?

From the belly slice it disection style and then just pull it off of him. Watch out for the guts tho, they are a real stinker. OR find a place that does hides and take it there. You are planning to use the whole deer right? like meat, antlers..etc? Backstrap chili is good :) Dont bother with the head. Slice it off at the neck. Why dont you get it mounted instead?

Hang out by the road. I got hit by a doe a month ago. I saw her, slowed down and as soon as I got next to her...WHAM! She dented my drivers side door, broke my sideview mirror and dented the left front panel. I'm just glad I didn't hit her head on. I was on a 2 lane road, nowhere to go. No where to stop for another 5 miles. \nGet one for me.\n\nAnd for those who think it is cruel to hunt? The hunters help to control the deer population. I would rather the deer get shot, die quickly than be hit by a car and lay by the side of the road injured and in pain. Or God forbid, someone get killed in an accident after hitting a deer. \nHunters also donate the meat they won't use to homeless shelters.

good question.  i can wear blaze orange and have deer walk within 10 feet of me.  i can wear wetlands camo and have ducks light up within 10 yards of me.  i can wear khaki shorts and still get a limit of doves.\n\nthe important thing is to stay still, camo isn't as important as staying still.  animals will notice motion before they notice something that seems out of place.  humans are probably the same, but more discerning of patterns and things that seem out of place.

First, Lay on the bed buck naked with your legs spread wide. Get a bottle of honey or syrup {my  favorite is caramel topping} and just pour a couple cold drops right between your legs. You won't have to sak or say a word. He should dive right in!

Use salt, it doesn't go away as fast.  Just poor some in your hands and rub it on your wet skin.

First make a fist and hold it about a foot in front of your face. Next close your eyes and make like you just hit a deer with your car.

Skin it and gets all the hair off of it or it will taste really gammy. We rinse our off with a hose. Then cut it in quarters and hang in old fridge for a week to age. We cut the back straps off(good steaks) and throw the ribs away. Then you bone out the legs. The pieces that are big enough we make into steaks and the rest goes for salami.  My parents always make deer burger out of the small pieces but we don't care for deer burger. We run our steaks through a tenderizer before packaging and freezing. Good Luck!!\n\nTry this site it tells you how to butcher one step by step. It even gives you some recipies at the bottem.\n\nhttp://web1.msue.msu.edu/msue/imp/modac/65793001.html

I suggest castration with a rubberband.  Go to farm supply store and buy a bull bander.  It will be quick.  But, I don't know about painless!

I love the responses on this question, especially the one that says "leave it alone, you're not going to eat it anyway".  That's funny.  Bear meat is great.\n\nThe safest way, that I know of, to hunt bear is from a tree stand.  While there are SOME bears that can climb trees, this is still the safest way.  Ensure that the stand is over 2 meters from the ground, sit and wait.  Of course, it helps if you set up in a known bear area.

Pretty easy, really.\nAfter you kill the squirrel, take your knife and cut a hole in the center of his back, crosswise of his body.  Make the hole about a inch wide.  Next, insert on finger from either hand into the opening, and pull just enough to make the hole large enough to get a better grip with more fingers.  Then just pull your hands apart.  The skin will usually tear around the squirrel, leaving it looking very much like a pair of pants and a shirt on the squirrel.  Pull off the top part first, the "shirt" pulling the skin up until his wrist and neck is free of skin.  Then break the wrist and cut loose below the freed skin.  Remove the head, and the skin from the "shirt" has the head and front feet in it.  Unless you plan on eating the brains, throw it away.  Personally, I'll leave squirrel brains and scrambled eggs to the old-timers!\nNext, hit the bottom half, the "pants"  Same basic procedure, but this time you're gonna have some intestines at the bottom, and if it was a male squirrel there's gonna be some more equipment down there...just yank it or cut it off.\nNow when you open it up, use just the tip of your knife. Put your finger on the backside of the blade, about a half inch or so from the point, so you don't bust any internal organs.  Horrible smell...avoid if possible.  Start at the pelvis and run the blade all the way up to the ribcage.  At this point, rupturing organs are no longer a concern, so go ahead and slice the ribcage open, sternum to throat.  Slide your fingers into the abdomen cavity, and pull out the internals.  Make sure you get all of it; it's not hard.  Next, remove the lungs and heart.  Make sure to get the windpipe.  Also, remember to bust the pelvis and make sure you get all the intestines and any droppings that may have squeezed out.  \nTake the squirrel inside, wash it with cold water, remove the legs and cut in half about halfway up the body.  Fill a fairly large bowl with saltwater, and put the dressed squirrel in it and put the whole thing in the refridgerator for at least a few hours, or overnight.  Then, pull the squirrel out, wash it, and either cook it, or freeze it.  \nI, personally, prefer mine fried, although squirrel dumplings are great, too...

Cut the piece of skin directly where the gills are. If you can, teather him (while still alive) around the bottom jaw, you can then let him swim out all his blood. This should only take a few minutes and is very effective.\n\nImmediately, remove the gills once this is done and throw overboard. Either fillet it or throw the body in an ice slurry. The best way to fillet is to get a purpose filleting nice, and then, from the tail scoots, run your nice all away along the bone until you get to the other side of the fillet.

Use your webcam to take a picture so we can all laugh at you!\n\nIf this were a real question I would tell you to use a spoon or fork handle to gently ease your skin apart from the object. Do not attempt to cut through the skin/glue bond and don't try to 'rip' your skin away with a sharp tug.

Here's a good one: http://www.biggamehunt.net/sections/Whitetail_Deer/A_Guide_to_Butchering_Deer_11220412.html\n\nAs far as the cuts go, it's the same as a cow.\n(Yes, I know - I don't know where THOSE are either - but that's what people tell me).\n\nYou gotta practice.  I'm starting to get the hang of it after about 6 of them.  However, if you'd have seen my first few attempts - you'd know why they call it "butchering".\n\nI generally try to sucker someone who's done it for years to do it.\nDo the old Mark Twain "whitewashing a fence" routine, or hem and haw and start cutting all over - until they offer to help and/or do it.

THE BEST WAY TO SHOOO MOOSE IS BY EMMITING AN AKWARD SOUND! TRY USING A STRANGE NOISE WHISSTLE! OR A LOUD HORN! THAT SHOULD DO IT! EVEN SMOKE WOULD DO GOOD!

remove outer skin, peel of a layer, pulverise it in a pestle and mortar, actually look at the website, its a really good explanation!
