Clinton News-Record, 1984-02-08, Page 15DISCOUN1S Sports Naturally Speaking By Steve Cooke Make the right cut Moose! Crisp clear days and frosty nights. Good clean air; huge meals for big ap- petites; a week in the bush in pursuit of the mighty monarch; all of this is part of moose hunting, but at the sound of the shot, the fun ends and the work begins. Every year a good portion of the meat ob- tained from moose is wasted and lost due to improper handling. It's not surprising. Most hunters are very concerned about getting their moose home in good shape and stock- ing up their freezer with that excellent meat, but conditions in the bush are quite variable, and the majority of us aren't pro- fessional butchers. Improper cutting, handl- ng .and..transportation_,a1 . _contrihute._.to _ Eneat Igss,-but these. are things. we_can have some _ control over, R. we -have the knowledge. That's where Roger Fortier and the National Meat Institute step into the pic- ture. "The Moose - From. Forest to Table" is in its third printing, and does an excellent job of describing just about everything there -- , is to know-about..getting ._your moose to the freezer in the best possible condition. The book starts out by giving a quick description of hunting techniques and equip- ment before it goes into detailed descrip- tions of what to do "after the shot". Methods for evisceration and caping out the trophy are detailed with excellent pictures and diagrams and are accompanied by charts to determine original live weight, etc. A moose is a big animal, and it is seldom practical to transport it in one piece. Accor- ding to Roger, this is the best method whenever possible, but if you are on a fly -in hunt, or looking at a long begat trip out, then sectioning the moose is the best way. Meat, .. however, can also be lost as a result of im- proper cuts, but by. using -Roger's diagrams, proper "butcher's" cuts can be made to reduce this possibility. Using his charts, a moose can be easily divided into two, four, quired for convenient transportation. It must always be remembered, however, that the more cuts that are made, the more flesh is exposed to drying, flies anddirt, and will result in further trimming in the final pro- cess. Once the moose is home, a professional butcher can process your meat, or it can be done by the hunter by following instructions in the book. The directions 'are straightfor- ward, and tips in regard to freezing, etc. are also included. A collection of excellent recipes for serv- ing your feast make up thelast section of the book `(including even a couple of methods --fur -preparing-•moose -lose).- There .is..bound, -- be-- something- whieh will appeal -to everyone in this section, and just reading it over makes my mouth start to water. Did you know that you can get about 130 pounds of roasts, chops, steaks and ground meat from a 200 pound whitetail buck?

These, and many more facts, can be found in "The Whitetail Deer - From Field to Table", a 64 -page guide to what to do after you've pulled the trigger. Besides outlining the proper way to field dress a deer, the manual shows; in step-by=step pictures and instructions, how to get the best cuts from the deer along with the proper way to age and freeze deer meat.
