Gutting a Deer (warning graphic material attached)

We left off with finding the recently shot deer last blog and now it's time for gutting the deer. In an early blog post when I mentioned what to have packed in a bag, I said a good knife, I prefer Buck knives with a gutting edged blade, plastic bags such as Walmart bags, and latex gloves if wanted. Now from personal experience, someone has told me many times how to gut a deer but I never quite understood it until I watched someone do it and I completed the task by myself. So, to help you best understand I've provided a video for you to watch. This video may be graphic to some so please contact me if you prefer not to watch this video and I will explain how to process is done. 

I have chosen this specific video because this hunter uses a nice sharp knife, also a saw but I find that a sharp, well built knife does the same job, and latex gloves as I mentioned above. The only comments I would add to this video is, I take all the guts and place them in a bag so that i'm not leaving them out in the field. Lastly, I take other plastic bags and fill them with ice or snow and tie them up. With those bags I can place them in the deer carcass to keep the meat cold while I transport the deer back to where I plan to skin the deer and retrieve the meat.
