Question for deer hunters

[BigRedBuster]

what do you pack along to clean yourself up after you clean the deer in the field?

I always end up with blood to my elbows and am looking around in the cold for something to clean up with. A dry rag really doesn't cut it.

I usually pack a pair of gutting gloves that go up over my elbows.

Canteen full of water.

That's what I usually do too, but it never fails, I get blood all over me while throwing the deer into the back of the truck.

Jug o' water I keep in the truck.

Coca Cola followed by water. Coke also works really well to get blood off of concrete if you cut your deer up in a garage or something.

Good call there.

Interesting ideas. Especially the coke.

Where we hunt there sometimes is a pond to wash up in but it was so friggen cold they were all frozen solid. Luckily I had about a half thermos of coffee left. We tried buying some sanitary wipes but they were frozen too by the time we needed them.

I usually wear a rubber, so I don't get too bloody.

Safety first, gentlemen.

we take up to 10 deer a season in our house. its down to a science. no blood on me except on my shoes. just rubber surgical gloves.and some homemade blades.

Second on the jug of water, or else snow.
