Facts about Deer Processing
When shooting a deer, many believe they’ll receive the weight of the deer (or close to it) back in meat. However, this is not always the case. The amount of meat you receive from a kill depends on a variety of factors such as:
- Overall weight of the deer
- Damage done from the bullet
- Any existing wounds or tumors
- Blood clots caused by the bullet
- Damage caused by wounded deer running away
- More…
The professionals at Grantfork Meats are experts at their craft, and we work hard to retain the most product possible. Here’s what you can expect from a typical processing order.
- Bone-In Cut: 40 – 45% of Field-Dressed Wt. (clean shot)
- Boneless Cut: 30 – 35% of Field-Dressed Wt. (clean shot)
