After the Shot
Field Care
Proper
care of game meat requires preparation. Obtaining top-quality meat begins
before the hunt and continues right through to the choice of cooking recipes.
Game meat quality is greatly influenced by how an animal or bird is hunted
and how the meat is cared for under field conditions.
You have a responsibility to properly care for your game. Respect the animal
you have taken. Everything you do or don't do at this stage will show up
at the dinner table later. Remember that the hunter, not the cook, is responsible
for the flavor of game meat.
Three things can cause your meat to spoil: dirt, heat and moisture.
