I'm going on my first deer hunt next Monday and hope to harvest my first deer. I have not field dressed a deer, but would like to if the opportunity arises. Lacking any first-hand experience, I've read a number of threads and articles, but still have a few questions.
1) At what point is the bladder removed?
2) Is that done when removing the instestines and do you have to split the pelvis bone to get at it?
3) What do you use cut through the ribs? Will kitchen or pruning shears work?
4) Skinning. How easily will the skin pull away from the deer once you've made your cuts?
