Good for you and your interest in getting in to hunting USP. You've already got most of what you need covered. And that's desire. You're on the right track with courses etc out there it seems. ..
A while back there you posted that you're only real concern is knowing how to deal with a big game animal when its down. That's the classic concern for everyone. I just want you to know its no big deal. Like everything else there's a few little tricks of the trade that make it easier.
In case you want to do a little day dreaming before the course, here's a couple things to think about. Rule no 1. Cleanliness is next to Godliness. Once the animial is down, take your time. You open up the hide from the anus to the throat by pulling the hide away from the carcass then making the cut carefull not to nick the stomach. Then cut the stomach open carefull not to nick the intestines and stomach itself. Then you essentially roll the whole works out of the animal with a couple manouevres and cuts that you can learn later. There you have it the bush work is done. You can now drag the deer out of the bush making sure to keep the exposed flesh clean, to your truck and take it somewhere to hang it and skin it. Butcher does the rest..
There's piles of good stuff on y ou tube and such that you can learn in detail later. I just want you and others in your situation to know, the big mystique of how the hey to deal with your prety is no biggy, although all first timers seem to worry. I did at least. But I dressed my first deer back when solo and it may not have been the prettiest job but it turned out just fine
