Editorial Reviews

These techniques were designed by Bill Buero, a professional meat cutter, avid hunter and an excellent teacher. He owned on of the largest deer processing stores in Southeast Michigan for over 20 years processing over a thousand deer a year. He has seen it all, developed his own simple methods of processing and he is now revealing his secrets as he retires his knives... "With thousands of repeat customers quality has always been #1!" - Bill

2.0 out of 5 stars Fuzzy home video of deer processing, May 21, 2008

OK, here's the good parts:

* It shows how to field dress and process bucks and does.
* It provides useful tips gleaned from many, many years of experience - you can tell these guys know what they're doing.

And here's the bad parts:

* The video quality is like watching an old home video on a worn VHS tape.
* There are NO chapters and NO menu. All the material is in one long chapter so it's difficult to go back and watch a specific part at a later date.
* The descriptions of the buck and doe anatomies is murky at best. You often cannot see what the guy is doing with this hands because they're up inside the deer.

If it weren't for the fact that there's some good information packaged in this lousy video production, I would've rated it one-star.

If the producers of this video happen to read this, here are some suggestions:

1. Rent some professional video equipment. Costs a few hundred bucks for a couple days, but you'll get much better video quality.

2. Divide the DVD into chapters so the viewer can choose which part of the process they want to watch. E.g. jump right to field dressing a buck, or field dressing a doe, or butchering, etc.

3. For the parts where you can't see the guy's hands up in the deer, cut-over to a visual aid like a diagram showing where the guy's hands are and what they're cutting.

5.0 out of 5 stars Home Deer Processing DVD review, October 2, 2008

Hello,

As with the other discussion I read before purchasing, I have to agree after watching this video that these people definately know what they are doing A+++. Yes, the video quality is not 100% but they do a good job explaining exactly what they are doing, I don't think I would be able to see much better even if I was in the room watching so I give quality an overall B. You can't learn it all from a video, but you can get some great tips and add a few of your own for the inbetweens.

I have now watched 3 different top Deer Processing DVD's and have to vote for this one as the best so far for picking up some good tips to use. I watched the Larry Metz, Deer Processing from field to freezer and was disappointed that they only do half a deer and didn't really pass on anything beyond the basics that we all know. I watched the Game Processing by T & M outdoors and thought the same.

So between the 3 I have to say these guys of Deer Masters really are the masters of Deer Processing...keep it up guys..as your ad said...step-by-step training as though you are training an employee "on the clock"...keep them coming...

Poor film quality, poor filming. I was not impressed with this video at all. Cameraman zooms in at strange times so you can't see what's going on. 100% amateur work. I also own one of the Larry Metz films and it's 10 times the film this is. Knowing how to process deer doesn't mean you know how to make a movie about it. I had always wondered how meat cutters can do it so fast. This film answered that question. They don't trim anything.
