Brittany Spears moment

Post by trevort »

To quote her song”oops
I did it again”
Dropped wife and daughter at McDonalds on Mickleham road whilst my son and I shot to the knife show.
Ian Stewart’s stall was first thru the door and he only had four left

This will have to do

You need to learn how to punch the skin off it does a much neater job.

Yeah, the skin gets chucked off the top of the hill. Not real concerned about how neat it was

So this Brittany Spears moment, its not about you getting out of a vehicle and realizing you have left your frilly knickers at home. :?

I have a mate that quite regularly leaves the bolt at home(or turns up with the wrong 1).

A good knife makes it easier when the animals cold, like so often after diesel stalking and punching a skin off - really works best on sheep and goats, and to a certain degree - poorly fed/non fatty deer, when they are warm.

When they have a reasonable fat layer over the arse, and you dropped the guts earlier, I have found they are finicky bastards around the tail and rump, easy to blow through the skin.

Buchan skinning = any which way that works.

I hang the deer where possible with the skin on for 4-5 days, and curse that same process when it comes time to skin and break down the animal - I think it ages better without the hard meaty "scab" that wastes soo much meat when you hang an animal without a humidity controlled coolroom, or breaking the animal down into major cuts/muscle groups and wrapping with wet newspaper and putting it in the bottom of the fridge - but both methods work.

But then, between Buchan and other shooting (note: note "hunting") I do - I guess I only shoot and break down around around 12 - 15 deer a year - your experience may differ.

Sorry Trevor, thats a really nice looking knife.

After a while he would feel guilty and buy me projectiles and powder so probably not.
Some of his best fly scores were shot with 1 of my rifles whilst his sat bolt less in the ute.
