[QUOTE="Jogeephus, post: 1231767, member: 4362"] I've done it like Bryant says but I think this method works better if they are hanging. In the field you can go just behind the jaw at the point where the first vertebra is and stick you knife in there with the blade facing out and pull outward. This should cut both carotids, the jugulars, windpipe and the esophagus and they will bleed out and not into the chest cavity. Also by cutting the windpipe this will prevent the animal from making any odd noises that to some might sound like you are hurting the dead animal. [/QUOTE]
