I live south of sulphur springs and will be hunting just north east of mt pleasant. Looking for someone good to use along that route. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

He did a great job and let me keep the heads before taking the deer. I was also checked by the game warden every time I went. Bishop usually keeps the head until ya pick up the meat. Never seen the game warden at his place. Plus you get to see all the other deer in his cooler when you put yours in. Whoever thinks there are no bigguns in NE Texas is flat wrong. Both make great summer sausage etc. It ain't easy being me.

Just talked to them. they charge $65 for basic deer processing and that includes skinning. I ve always skinned my deer myself before. I processed my own last year, lot of work. If it was cooler or if I had a big fridge to hang it in, Id do it myself again.
