    Butchering process help?

    So just to make sure I understand fully, newbie here. Butcher, then chill/rest in ice/water mixture until rigor passes (1-3 days?), then bag and store? Or are you bagging prior to putting in ice? Sorry for the stupid question. Feels like it should be bagging last, but I see some using the shrink...

    Anyone here do metal detecting?

    I use a NOX 800, but have not been out in a while. I enjoy doing historical research, map overlays, etc and then going out and seeing if I can get permission to search. If you hunt, what is the best thing you have found?
