That whole pig breakdown I filmed last spring vs. the one I did yesterday...
The difference in my trim yield is wild, went from losing almost 4 pounds of fat to less than 1.5 on a 200-pound carcass. What changed was I started scoring the skin deeper before pulling the belly off. Has anyone else seen a big shift in their numbers after adjusting a single cut?

Scoring deeper was the game changer for me too, especially on bigger hogs where the fat cap is thicker. That one tweak cleaned up my belly pulls way faster with less waste.

Yeah that deeper scoring is key for sure @taylor668. I started doing it more aggressive on the back fat and it changed everything for me too. My trimming time went way down and I wasn't leaving so much good meat behind. Now I just run my knife right along the score lines and it peels off clean every time.
