This is a good how-to. I added it to my YouTube favorites. I'll never get to practice gutting on as many critters as Fred (and a lot of you others) have gotten. Seeing it done helps a guy like me a lot.

wow, and I paid for a less insightful video from a source I won't post, sure hope I can try this out this year, I have a bunch of elk just short of tied up right now, hopefully they stick around for 19 more days so I can try to get a shot off and give this a try:)

excellent - we started doing this around 32 years ago when we got serious backpack hunting - that thing should go into bowhunter ed - fun and productive

great video.... my only objection to it is that I watched it as I was getting ready for bed. Oh how I hate a sleepless night.....
I've gone gutless on the past couple of elk. It is the only way to go.

He is not going through the bone he is finding a joint, cutting cartilage, tendons and other connecting tissue. [archer2]

I am with fishfinder - I like getting the heart and liver - and after watching meat eater show I want the caul fat too! gonna try wrapping the heart in it like he did!

Gredt video - but I am usually close enough to a road to drag, only done this when hunting out a boat.

Great video, been using that method for the last 10 years.

It is easier to get the heart/liver after the critter is broken down. Was planning on giving the caul fat wrapped heart in the dutch oven a try this fall after watching the meat eater show.

Another thing I have heard about this method is it lowers the spread of CWD into new areas since the spine is left in the field.
