you guys are wasting alot of meat
Awesome video
Does this hurt the elk?
“Taxidermist needs to feed his kids” underrated one liner 😂😂😂
Been dead awhile alot of rigor
You guys have no clue about skinning an animal, also fncked up some beautiful hide there…
What amazes me is that tiny scalpel blade can disassemble an absolute unit.
Great video. Thank you.
What knife?
That elk tenderloin looked like the backstrap of a deer i took a while ago LMAO!! These critters are MASSIVE!! Truly magnificent!
Obviously you don’t care about the hide,,to bad
Tenderloins my favorite piece! Cook after every harvest!

Shame on you if you leave all that rib and neck meat!
What a waste! If they spent more time "Caping" and boning the whole bull out, the video would be the same length! Where is the sense of time?? We all spend Hrs, days, Months. Preparing, buying, taking time off, or whatever to do this, yet you cant spend an extra 15 mins to get some awesome burger meat…about 10 lbs, off the bull. Not a clue! What a waste! I wish all states were like AK and you cant leave an ounce on it! Im lost!
What an anoying photography. It makes you unease looking at the process.
Lots of meat stick with hide. Wasted.
The front leg avoid the dirt trick is smart. Adding to cranium hard drive*
What a waste of a perfectly good hide.
Lot of wastage I know they can’t carry but they should hunt according to capacity
The people of Tinian are going to make you guys look like kids. Also, your knives you are using are garbage. You Americans think you can technically teach the world 🌎 you’re useless teaching, yet you don’t know the best parts of the animals. The Indians are even better than you.

Ok but growing up and grandfather running a slaughter house and raising cattle sheep hogs you take everything- working ranch you take everything – if you process and cook you know better
What kind of knife are these guys using?
A team of guys is so much easier than doing it by yourself! I’ve been fortunate to harvest 17 elk of which maybe 10 I was alone for dressing and packing out. At 78 yo and 150 lbs, not likely to be able to do it again.
Good video! Thanks!
What kind of knife is he using? Anyone know?
Awesome job guys
it look like Wiebe knives Blades
Great video and great information
Is that a suunto watch?I had mines for 6-7 years put it through hell and the only thing it’s asked me it’s to change the battery love it plus I found it cheaper to buy a pack of batteries Amazon 40 for like 10 bucks 🤷♂️
At 29dec 2024❤ love it,
You look like Chuck Norris 😂
What blade was that. I was impressed on how well it maintained its sharpness.
What knife are you using? or do you recommend?
Shouldn’t you let it bleed out first? I’m new at this that’s why I’m asking.
Thanks.
Why don’t just they give it a wash before?
You got hung up a few times with your boots and the meat. And with your gloves, you touched the dirty hide and then the meat again. I don’t know if that is right ? You guys still have to learn. 😢
Better with pack mules and a couple double diamonds XX
This is rad, I went to highschool with David and his sister. David was always nice to me, despite me being burn out. And now he taught me how to clean an elk.
I always go into the rib cavity for the tenderloin and heart. The tenderloin is, well, the tenderloin. The heart, I pickle. I also take the belly muscle for summer sausage.
You learn something everyday if you just watch and listen. Thanks guys…
Guess the taxidermy guy needs all that back strap meat too lol
I like to leave backstrap on front shoulder. It helps with even weight packs.
Where you filmed this video? 14th December 2024.
But does this hurt the elk?

I often see the gutless method, more so than removing the guts nowadays. But not many videos show whether anyone takes the rest of the meat like the brisket, all the neck meat (lots of meat when cutting off the head was still on the neck). Is this because "you don’t have to take that" or they just don’t show it? Does anyone take elk ribs at all? I know they’re not great but still lots you can do with I imagine.
I’m fairly new to hunting and have not yet hunted an elk so I’m learning here 🙂
What brand of knife were they using? I need to buy a set please, awesome video.
I can’t believe you can cut off a whole leg with no blood
