To deer or not to deer?

That brings me to another question regarding CWD. Don't you have to get some of the spinal column in the meat to end up contracting CWD or some of the brain matter, or can you contract CWD just from eating meat of an animal with CWD?

Like Skyline with the hides, when they first started the feed the hungry program here in Maryland, the drive to the closest butcher participating in the program was an hour each way for me. That rarely happened, especially after a long day hunting. Now, I can leave the deer hanging at a farm I hunt at and the guys there take a load of deer at the time to the local butcher participating in the feed the hungry program. It makes life a lot easier.
