    Deer on the hoof weight percentage make up (approx):
    Blood - 5%
    Hide - 9%
    Bone - 13%
    Organs - 23%
    Meat - 50%

    I personally don't eat anything from the deer except the meat, so why carry anything out of the bush that isn't eatable?

    After a foot fusion, three knee surgeries, three back surgeries (and another pending) I bone everything out in the bush. 35-50kg meat (depending on animal size) is plenty to be carrying these days.
