Venison Butchery, Skinning and Carcass Preparation Course - Butchery refers to the preparing of animals for meat and here at County Deer Stalking, we have created a truly unique and fabulous Online Butchery & Skinning Masterclass, that is designed to empower those that hunt deer with the skills required to skin, butcher and prepare the carcass of their own shot deer at home.
The thing about attending most butchery courses in person, is that by the time you get around to butchering your own deer, you have forgotten much of what you have learnt.
Unlike other butchery courses, the benefit of our Online Butchery Masterclass, is that you can stop and start it, refer to it again and again and watch it at a time and place that suits you. You can even have it playing on your phone, iPad or laptop in front of you at home, whilst you breakdown your own carcass.
What’s more, the quality and delivery of the course is such, that we defy even the most accomplished hunter not to learn a thing or two.

What is so great about Venison?
Venison is essentially the term used to describe the meat produced from various species of deer and in the U.K there are six species of wild deer, Red and Roe, which are native to the UK, and also Fallow, Sika, Muntjac and Chinese Water Deer. The flavour and taste of each species can be quite different.
What’s so great about venison is that it is highly nutritious. Health benefits include being high in B12 & B6 - which helps prevent the build-up of a dangerous molecule in the body called homocysteine.
Venison is also high in Iron and has high levels of riboflavin, which can help prevent migraines. In addition to this, venison is also high in niacin (Vitamin B3), which helps prevent the onset of osteoarthritis.
It is also a highly ethical meat source, being 100% sustainable, wild, free range and non-intensively farmed! Something that means it is free in the hormones, steroids and additives that can often be found in intensively farmed meat sources.
There’s more. Of all red meat sold in the UK, venison is the lowest in calories, cholesterol and fat and typically has less fat content than a skinless chicken breast!
Here at County Deer Stalking we are encouraging people to lower their Carbon Footprint and enjoy this sustainable food source and so our clients typically take away with them hundreds of kilo’s of venison to be consumed at home by their families each year.
If you’d like to learn how to harvest your own venison from the wild, then a great place to start is by learning how to hunt. You can do this by taking the ‘Proficient Deer Stalker Certificate Level 1. Follow this link to find out more: proficient-deer-stalker-certificate
