I built my own cooler last year and hung 3 deer for 7 - 8 days at 35 degrees.  It was the mildest, best tasting venison my family has ever had.  I'm very happy with the results of aging.  

Also, it sure is nice to just come home and hang a deer in the cooler instead of having to butcher it into the night.

Interesting read tuscar.  Looks like the aging affects can take quite a while on beef.  I may try hanging my next deer for 2 weeks and see how it fares.
