Not true Venison Shanks are fantastic. Funny this thread popped up since I have a shank defrosting for Osso Buco tonight! 

Yea he’s got the shank confused with the lower portion I’m asking for. Love osso buco enjoy your meal tonight!

My friend from Burma i  used to save him all my friends deer legs and mine as well. He said his relative made medicine with the hooves and used the leg for other stuff pretty wild.

That’s pretty interesting, I’m just using them to make game stock thats all.

Pretty sure anyone butchering deer wouldn't care if you took some. They pretty much just throw them away.

Didn’t think to look with butchers! Thanks for the recommendation.

Just wondering. What do you plan to use the legs for?

High gelatin game stock.

COOL! Good for you using every part! I just saw this on the TV show" Life below zero."The woman made a bunch of  gelatin from the hooves of a Caribou.  She used fire to remove the hard part of the hooves and then boiled the soft tissue underneath.She said it was from the ancient indigenous tribes and is delicious!

Ok great!  Then if someone posesses parts they do not need the info the regulations say they must have they only need to say that they bought the parts.  Got it!

Nope, but what’s honestly more funny is people giving others shit for using a part that was most likely gonna get thrown out anyway. Kinda goes against my personal sportsman’s ethic of use every part of an animal possible. But you know that’s just me ¯\_(ツ)_/¯ 

Good point smungung.

Can you share with us how you use them?  Osso bucco? I often put them into a "Dzik" or "Tzik," a great Yucatecan Indigenous Mexican recipe with a little Caribbean influence. Another great recipe for them is a Peruvian "seco."  Check them out, folks.  People from south of the border are often forced to find tender and tasty ways to use the pieces North Americans often throw out. Check your gut pile too. Lungs rock in a white white and tomato sauch. Younger deer liver is great, older deer liver OK.  Barbecued marinated heart is a delicacy. Seared kidneys as long as it's not an old buck, and you've stripped off the outer membranes, are great with a stout.

If you buy the parts you possess the parts!

The REGULATION says no person shall have in possession...

Now read the law...

https://law.justia.com/codes/new-jersey/2019/title-23/section-23-4-27/

23:4-27. a. No person shall sell or purchase wildlife, except as authorized pursuant to this section or any other law or as may be authorized by rule or regulation adopted by the division...

Unless prohibited or restricted by rule or regulation adopted by the division

or any rule or regulation adopted pursuant thereto, provided that the wildlife was taken and possessed in a lawful manner.

provided that those parts or products are from a white-tailed deer that was taken and possessed in a lawful manner.

For the purposes of this section, "sell or purchase" means to sell or offer for sale, possess for sale, purchase or agree to purchase, receive compensation, barter or offer to barter, trade or offer to trade, or transfer or offer to transfer, or conspire for any of those purposes.

Im only buying the lower portion of the leg to make game stock, the part for osso bucco is the shank which cannot be sold unfortunately.

I don't think ANY part of a deer can be sold in NJ. Can be giving/donated but not sold

Incorrect. Its in Title 23 what can be possessed and sold
