Estimating your yield

  
  How Much will I get?
Deer that have been properly handled after harvest will normally yield an average of 55% boneless meat to dressed weight when processed by our standards. Approximately 1/2 of the boneless meat will be "trim" which is only suitable for grinding. To estimate the return from your deer fill out  this form:
 
 
                            Venison Yield

Dressed Weight                          ______
 
Multiply by yield (55%)                    X.55
 
Boneless Eatable Meat               ________
 
Multiply by 50%                                X.50
 
Trim for Grinding                       _______
 
Divide by 7.5                                    / 7.5
 
Batches of Sausage                      ________
 
 
Example of  completed Venison Yield Form:

Dressed Weight                          __100#____
 
Mutiply by yield (55%)                    X.55
 
Boneless Eatable Meat               ____55#____
 
Mutiply by 50%                                X.50
 
Trim for Grinding                       _____27.5#__
 
Divide by 7.5                                    /  7.5
 
Batches of Sausage                      ___3.66_____
 
In this example you would be able to plan on four batches of sausage. The little bit of weight difference could be compensated with extra pork
