Deer oh deer #3

by

The deer hung in my garage until New Year’s Eve. Party time!

We went to Dave’s farmhouse for New Year. Sixteen of us always had a great time there. Dave’s brother-in-law Jeremy was there. Jeremy knew a thing or two about game; he’d shot a few deer in his time. I took him to one side and buttonholed him about how long to let my deer hang.

“About five to seven days in a cool place should do it.”

Yes! still in time.

“Of course you’ve removed it’s guts? That must be done immediately after the kill!”

’Shiiiiiit!’

    I guess you didn't have the guts!
