About Kratzer Meats Deer Processing

Deer and wild game processor in Winfield, Union County. It donates venison through Hunters Sharing the Harvest and is a Game Commission CWD cooperating processor.

Kratzer Meats Deer Processing doesn't have Google reviews yet, so ask other hunters or call to get a feel for turnaround. It takes Hunters Sharing the Harvest donations and is a PGC CWD cooperator for fall archery, winter archery, regular firearms, after-christmas firearms. If the cooler is full, the closest alternatives are Zimmerman's Custom Butchering (5.0 mi) or Heintzelman Butcher Shop (9.7 mi).

Drop-off checklist

Tag it right away. Tag the deer immediately after harvest and before you move it. The tag goes on the ear and stays there until the deer is processed.
Field dress and cool fast. Remove entrails, drain the cavity and get the deer cold. In warm weather, pack the cavity with bagged ice.
High-risk parts go in the trash. New for 2026-27: you can move a deer anywhere, but once it leaves the kill site the head, backbone and spleen must go out with commercial trash. A processor handles that for you.
Report within 10 days. Online, by phone at 1-800-838-4431, or with the digest report card.
