stanley Report post Posted March 21, 2019 I've taken to mainly going 'gutless' on my animals lately, so mainly skin it one side at a time while on the ground (no hanging). If hanging though, it's always been "redneck style " hanging from a tree branch by the back legs. We did use the 'golf ball' method once (used a redneck rock) with a cow elk. Tied that one to a tree by the neck. Seemed to work OK. S. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PRDATR Report post Posted March 23, 2019 Seems like there is never a tree in sight, except once about 30 years ago when I shot a spike Mule Deer near Cottonwood Camp in 24. I had some rope but it wasn't easy getting it hung in that palo verde tree by myself. I think most people will agree that hanging from the rear legs is the norm when hanging one.
