DICKINSON, N.D. -- They say that “time is money,” well in the big game hunting world, “time is meat.”
Steven Rinella of the renowned outdoor company MeatEater advises hunters to gut big game immediately.
“Regardless of whether the animal will be skinned and processed in the field or at home, it needs to be gutted immediately. Big game should be gutted as soon as possible, preferably within an hour of the animal’s death,” Rinella said in an article called “Field Tips For Gutting a Big Game Animal.”
