Skinning A Deer

While it may not be the most exciting job in the world, skinning a deer is important when returning from a hunt or when still actually on the hunt. This information will be handy for that day on which you will need to skin a deer.
First of all, skinning a deer is not that difficult as you imagined before. Deer has protective membranes that separate their skin and muscle tissues, which make it easier for the skinning process.
You should first hang the deer creating a greater leverage point for skinning the deer. This also ensures that the meat will stay clean. It is important to try to skin the deer within an hour or two of the deer’s death.
When skinning, make sure you use a really sharp knife so that you do not go through the same part over and over again. Stab somewhere between the deer’s large tendon at the lower leg and bone. After that, use your finger to feel the lump.
After that, find two parts of the double joint at the lower part of body to be torn. The leg should then be broken to ease the skinning process.
After you have broken the deer’s legs, make several incisions around and near the tendon areas. There should be a whole between the tendon and the bone of the lower leg, as well as several incisions near the front legs.
After that, we move deeper to the front legs. Break and make openings just like you do with the lower legs. Get inside the skin near the lower leg openings and pull it off to start the skinning process.
The skinning process may be hard in the beginning since the skin is quite tight. But once you can pull off some inches, the rest will be easy to finish. And even more after you see the meat, the reward of your hunt.
Skinning a deer, while not particularly romantic, is a process that should take around ten to fifteen minutes and relies almost entirely on your own body weight and strength.

Deer Hunting Tips – Telescopic Scopes Part 2
January 1, 2010 by John Eagleheart

This is part two of our three part series on choosing the best scope for your deer hunting rifle. In part one we looked at the magnification range and objective lens size of your scope. This article will examine the light transmission, lenses & coatings, and field of view choices you have.
Understanding Light Transmission Qualities In Your Scope
As the magnification increases, the light getting to your eyepiece decreases. As the objective lens increases, the light getting through your eyepiece will also increase. By nature, scopes lose some light as it travels through the scope to your eyes. Even the highest quality and most expensive scopes only achieve a light transmission rate of around 98%. While anything over 95% for light transmission is considered great, there are very nice, quality scopes that are around 90%.
Scope Lenses and Coatings
You\’ll usually find that scopes have coated lenses and are waterproof. There are many different coatings that come in different sizes and price ranges. You can definitely get a single coated lens scope that can blow most multicoated lenses out of the water. The glass and coating quality is what will decide its effectiveness. You have to pay more to get a good quality coating, which will reduce the glare coming in. You\’ll notice improved light transmission and better contrast with a greater number of coatings.
The Field of View
How much you see out of your scope in terms of its entire area, 100 yards in front of you, is called field of view. This figure goes down when you increase the lens magnification of the scope. The reverse is true as well, with better field of vision and lower magnification. If you have a 3×9 variable scope, the 3 power will give you a 30 foot field of view, but only a 14 feet FOV at the 9 power setting, which is dramatically different. You won\’t get better field of view with a bigger objective lens.
