Do you tip your game processor

[Brathany]

Here in California, they charge 135.00 per animal, be it a 90lb blacktail or 200lb mule deer, or $1.20cents a lb to grind and wrap, on boned and trimmed venison, those prices motivated me to use my Cabela's points to buy a grinder,

In IL it's $200 processing fee and $2 per lbs of burger. Me and my pals have LEM equipment enroute. 4 deer will break even on the savings by self processing.

Do it. You'll never go back and your meat will taste the way it should.

The last deer I took to the locker came back with lead slug fragments and I was shooting Barnes copper. Then there was the mistake of them reading the sheet of 70lbs of meat as 20lbs and I was treated like the A-hole for pointing it out. Never again.

I've ran large wild game processors and you tip if you want something off the norm. A good example is if you ask the unloading guy to run it across the scale for a weight or to cut the horns or ivories out and the big one if you bring in a pile of leaves and fur in game bags. For normal service pay the normal price, in the shop I ran the best tip anyone got was a Thank You and treating staff kindly, that goes farther than anything!!

I just tipped for the 2nd time to have some antler skull plates cut off But I tipped the guy on the loading dock because he did me a huge service And I slipped him a dime ( $10) when I shook his hand The owner no way , only the guys on the dock who J me up letting me know when it’s not busy...
