Bladebuster, Thanks so much for this explanation. I don't (not much opportunity) hunt, but watched that video, and though I was really impressed with his skill, was also really taken aback by how wasteful it seemed. To kill such a big animal, cut out the fillet minion and leave turned my stomach a little, not trying to offend anyone, it was just my initial reaction.
I even thought about putting together a new tread, just to see if that's normal.
That was my initial thought as well however Hokkaido has serious deer overpopulation problems that wreck havoc on agricultural crops, trees and causes road mishaps. With the absence of natural predator the sika deer population increases exponentially every year. Their government at some point engaged the soldiers for culling. If you bagged 50~60 deers per season I guess you will just have to take the prime cuts. The other reason Virtuovice explained was he goes deep in the woods to hunt and treks for a hour or so to get to the game, dragging the whole deer back to his car would be impractical as well. The irony is that they have less guns but unlimited deers and we are the opposite. I think I'll choose more deers
