Another good reason why you the hunter/killer should learn to process your own deer.
I wonder how many folks didn't get all their meat from the deer they brought in.

I wonder if most of it was meat that people originally told them to donate to HFH or HFFH

Now they could skim some off the top... How did they think they could get away with it? Glad they got busted. |

Me personally I have only ever used 2 processors outside of us doing our own a long time ago....first one is a dear friend and the current is an Amish guy whom I would trust with my kids if I had em. I've walked into a processor before when our friend stopped and just a couple questions made me nearly sprint out of there. |

I've done dozens and I am no better now than when I botched my first. My knife skills truly are laughable!  |

I don't know any of the details of this case, but I do know that processors get stiffed more than occasionally. So there the processor is, holding a guy's venison but the guy has gone and spent his money on booze or women or worse yet, he just wasted it. The processor learns of another guy that wants venison, so he takes the opportunity to recover his loss by "selling" it to this other guy. I see no real crime in this. I know this scenario is only one possibility but it's probably unlikely that these guys were shooting deer to sell to the general public. Anything is possible though.

I would say that there is more to this case than meets the eye. Personally I don't see a thing wrong with charging/paying the processing fee for a deer. If I was in the processing business I'd be taking some money up front.. |

When I processed in Indiana I asked a local warden if it was okay to give away deer that were not picked up but charge a processing fee, also the summer sausage that people never picked up, charge what it cost me to make it...I was told NO!! Wanted to argue but better safe then sorry so I dropped it.
Asked the same question when I moved here to Minnesota and was told yes I could charge processing fee...again by local warden.
It amazed me that people would drop a deer off, pay the $65 processing fee and say put the whole deer into summer sausage for additional cost per-pound....I think it amazed some of them as well when I called with the bill because they wouldn't pick up...LOL

Here in Indiana, a processor CAN recoup the costs of processing an unclaimed deer. All the processors in my area do it. One shop in my county has a list of non-hunters who want deer, and if anyone donates a deer they killed, someone from the list pays the processing fee to get it.

The Old School restaurant is closing ? Where am I supposed to get my Friday fried chicken lunch at ? Been going there for years. That's been a staple for many, many, years now while down for turkey and deer season.

The processor that I use once in awhile. Does this very thing also. He has a deer meat list and a summer sausage list. |
