MOVED Nj hunters who use Elys Deer Processing

[Bowhunter444]

This is the statement Dwight the owner has sent out

 

ATTENTION- NJ HUNTERS!

We are still working with the PA Game Commission who has banned WHOLE deer from being brought into PA from other states, INCLUDING NJ, this season. We have been trying for months to get a special exception from them, to no avail at this point, and we will re-post next week prior to September 11 with details. If the PA Game Commission refuses to grant us an exception, NJ hunters will need to skin and quarter their deer while still in NJ, then bring it in quarters in a cooler (one deer per cooler-cooler labeled with name and phone number on top, as well as the Ely computer paperwork in a plastic bag placed inside the cooler) to leave it at Ely's for processing. We are notifying you ahead of time so you can prepare, if needed.

 

PA hunters can bring whole deer as usual.

 

Please share this information with other non-PA hunters and be sure to check back (facebook or our website) prior to September 11, when our deer coolers open. At that time, we should a definite answer from the PA Game Commission. THANK YOU!!

[Bonefreak]

See ya later this fall Dwight!

Probably get knocked to 2 or so if I’m guna be quartering them anyway I will process them

[Devil Horns]

I usually take 2 there. Hopefully I kill a buck in PA this year. I enjoy his specialty items a lot. Snack sticks with cheese, pepperoni, and jalapeño hot dogs are all great products.

Yeah, that’s got to hurt them, sadly.

Believe me they are not making up rules for the fun of it, this is soley to reduce the chance of spreading CWD. Many states already have this in place for CWD reasons.
There’s usually a good reason for these types of decisions even if u don’t know what it is.

I agree, very good rule.  

[Bucksnbows]

Thanks for this post. I know many here use Ely’s each season and it will help those hunters greatly to know this in advance.

Thats gonna hurt really bad, I'm good for 4-5 myself.

How would  CWD be spread by bringing a dead deer and putting it into a cooler with other dead deer  Not trying to be a smart ass I just don't understand  the logic or science behind that decision,  How would it possibly be spread, i always thought it was spread from animal to animal or am i wrong ?

CWD is transmitted directly through animal-to-animal contact, and indirectly through contact with objects or environment contaminated with infectious material (including saliva, urine, feces, and carcasses of CWD-infected animals).
