I asked the ASK DNR LAW if boning a deer out is legal after it has been checked in online. Here is the reply:
From: John Scifres Sent: Thursday, August 22, 2013 12:18 PM To: DNR LAW Subject: Deer Checking and In Field Processing
If a deer is killed and then the online CheckIn or phone system is used, can it be processed in the field instead of being dragged out. Can the carcass (bones and gutpile) remain in the field? Thanks.

Yes sir, you may process the animal, once it has been tele-checked, and leave the remains on the property, provided that you have permission to do so from the property owner. One word of caution, the law still states that you must fill out a temporary transportation tag (name, address, sex of animal, date of kill).

Thank you. What if it is state or national forest or WMAs?

The state allows field dressing on their properties.

I'm reading it that way since that was my question and the thread of the conversation. I agree it leaves some room for interpretation. But do it in a respectful way and I doubt you will have any problem on State land. Make sure and take all the meat, neck and rib included so we don't get into any problems with wasting game. If you are quartering one, you should only have the spine, ribs and head left and that is pretty easy to make as unobtrusive as possible. I generally bone the hindquarters out but take the shoulders out whole. Packing one out.

I was sitting in the stand just this week thinking of this very subject. I was wondering if you did tele check one, and it did NOT leave the property where it was harvested, or on public roads, if it still needed a temporary transportation tag. For instance....I shot one in my woods behind my house... yaz, renee isn`t going to let you NOT help her drag her deer out of the park hunt.. just sayin..lol
