On a turkey just cut back the skin on the breast and fillet the breast off.
If you mean to field "dress" a deer, I just cut from the business end up and cut through the ribs, then yank everything out. Be careful not to cut the guts...it's not to pleasant.

pigs are easy for a no gut method...cut off & skin each front & back quarter & skin down the back just enough to get the loins off...rest stays in tack for dumping

For deer and turkeys, can't you get busted for wanton waste of game using this strategy?

This is one way. A little more than I would do but still works for deer and hog.

for pigs it dont matter..you can gut, skin & cook..or gut skin & get all the meat...or gut & take to a proscessor, we use the no gut method on pigs only
for deer we gut ice & take to the proscessor OR if we do it ourselves(most common for us), gut(ice if its warm)hang, skin & take EVERY bit of meat outselves
for turkeys, only thing the majority of ppl take is the breast, tail & beard

Be careful on how you field-dress your turkeys in the field...there are certain requirements on 'what' must be left on the birds.
Notice: It is unlawful to possess a deer, pronghorn antelope, pheasant, or turkey (turkey taken in a county where the bag composition is restricted to gobblers and/or bearded hens or taken during any spring turkey season) with proof of sex removed. The following is considered proof of sex and must accompany the carcass until it reaches its final destination and is finally processed:
-the head (skinned or unskinned) of a buck deer with antlers attached;
-the head (skinned or unskinned) of an antlerless deer; -the unskinned head of a pronghorn antelope; -a completed Managed Lands Deer Permit, Landowner Assisted Management Permit, Antlerless Mule Deer Permit, Special Wildlife Management Area or State Park Drawn Public Hunting Permit, or Antlerless and Spikebuck Control Permit; -one leg, including the spur, attached to the pheasant carcass or the entire plumage attached to the pheasant carcass; Eastern gobblers - Turkey Special Regulations for turkeys in counties where the bag composition is restricted to gobblers and/or bearded hens, a male turkey is required to have one leg, including the spur, attached to the bird; or the bird, accompanied by a patch of skin with breast feathers and beard attached. A female turkey taken during the fall season must be accompanied by a patch of skin with breast feathers and beard attached. EXCEPTION: Instead of proof of sex, the hunter may obtain a receipt from a taxidermist or a signed statement from the landowner or the landowner's agent containing the following information:
Name of person who killed the wildlife resource; Date the wildlife resource was killed; and One of the following, as applicable: whether the deer was antlered or antlerless; the sex of the antelope; the sex of the turkey and whether a beard was attached; or the sex of the pheasant.
