How to Field Dress a Whitetail Deer:
In this day in age with chronic wasting disease and lyme disease, all hunters should wear gloves. Field dressing whitetail deer is a relatively easy task. The only items you will need are a sharp knife and a stomach that is not easily upset. For those that do not like the feel of warm blood or internal body parts, I recommend you wear a pair of surgical gloves. Listed below are some very basic steps and pictures to aid you in completing the field dressing process.

Most states and Canadian provinces require you to tag a buck on the spot. A few people attach a tag to a deer's ear. Many hunters tie or tape it around an antler or leg.
Carry a sharp fixed or folding-blade knife and a sharpening stone or steel. You might cut through the thin hide just below the joint of a deer's hind leg and attach your tag there.
