One of the guys on my lease is from out of state. Far enough where its not practical to drive so he flies. I've always known it was illegal but the Deer Cop verbally told him it was ok to debone his deer in camp before his flight. Anyone else have experience with this or disagree that its ok for an out of stater to do this but not a Texan? I would love to break my deer down a little further between hunts to save time at home.

Deboning Deer In Camp
I knew a guy who did it with every deer he shot.
He drives and SUV so his coolers aren’t visible going down the highway- never gets checked.
I doubt he realizes it’s “against the law”.
Most longtime hunters never flip back through the annual rules and Regs booklet, inspecting for any changes.
Has the “not beyond quartering” always been the rule in Texas?

I believe the way it is explained in Texas is that it cant be deboned until it is at its final destination. Final destination is defined as primary residence or processer. Although i believe when in a state having CWD,EHD etc you cant have any bone parts that may have cerebrospinal fluid transporting across state lines.

I obey the game laws and tag my animals but honestly on small private property no one would ever know. I still enjoy tagging the animal though for ceremonial purposes.
