I just wanted to get a general feel to see if other hunters had difficulty finding a certified butcher that would take care of your deer. It seems that this is a dying breed and most commercial butchers will not cut deer meat if they are processing beef and pork for example citing inspection concerns etc.

I finally did find a butcher but his cost was about 15 cents per pound more than two years ago when i last got a deer. I guess supply and demand allows him to increase the processing costs.

Have any of you run into similar problems?

here on the miramichi we all take our deer and moose to a commercial butcher. they been here for years and do a great job proceesing the meat. i think its around 40 or 45 cents a lb for cut,wrap and storage so not bad...usually get an averagr size moose cut for around $200 good luck :thumbsup1:
