Those are some beautiful photos. It looks a lot like where I live but 2 months ago
now we have waist deep snow. Now with everyone starting to realize how much better wild and naturally fed meat is venison is more than a cheap replacement for beef.
I have a few good photos from a friend in southern sask who does a lot of hunting ,bowhunting and has several good trail cams but they all seem to end with a skinned carcass hanging in a garage and I was worried it might be a bit much for some people(not the regulars but this is a public forum).

More rifle info please. also what did you use for skinning? The only Scrapper I would use for skinning is the SS4. I am looking forward to the first time I get to use mine especially with the thin zero edge and polish. The SwampRat Swamp Warden looks like it would make a good hunting knife as well.
