Deer season is almost upon us. We are in the Redding area just 5 minutes off of I-5. This year I will be focusing on shoulder mounts and bear rugs. We will also be doing game processing from cuts to sausages, bulk or summer. $1.50/lb cut and wrap includes grinding $150 min fee. Added fat to bulk or Summer sausage $4/lb. 20 lb min for each sausage type spices $10 per batch. Smoked summer sausage $7.50/lb finished weight.
If you are unsure about skinning or field care just message me. See the attached photo for deer. If you don't want to tackle the skinning job we will do it for you, just gut it out, cool it down and bring in fast! $50 skinning fee. Also if you are just getting a euro, or are otherwise not using your cape I offer a $50 credit for your cape in good shape (clean, cool, undamaged other than bullet holes. Again contact me for help. I would rather prepare you for successfully caring for your trophy and meat than having it not work out for your taxidermist on your mount or spoiled meat in the garbage. Happy hunting and best of luck to all of the hunters out there! Shout out to Butcher shop taxidermy in Buelton for posting up the pic!

So butchering a deer last night. Find the bullet. it hit in the spine about 6 inches up from the hips and ended up in the offside backstrap. No mushroom, no deformation. WTF!!!??.

If you are not sure, bring it in fast or come by for a lesson.

That time of year again!!!! Your yearly reminder. DO NOT cut the throat of your buck. DO NOT cut down the back of the neck.....pull your hide over like taking off a sweater. DO NOT drag your buck behind the ATV without putting a tarp or sled under your buck. You will wear off the hair....and yes it is noticeable.

Once again this year I will be taking in game animals for processing. In the Redding area, there are fewer butchers doing game and I understand that at least one of them is already full with beef and likely not taking any animals at all. I can hang 6-8 animals at a time. Also doing skulls, deer, and bear rugs! Give me a call. 530-227-7060 and good luck out there.
