Bear tanning woes

<< < (2/2)

Russ:
the hides should still be good jeb if they were frozen the whole time.

Hawkdancer:
I tend to agree with Deerhunter, I have heard of buck skinners who freeze their hides for a couple years after fleshing and working some before finishing the tanning process and smoking.

I'm not sure will have to measure it.

I mostly used the 20° tip that came with the unit.  I tried the 0° tip and that thing cuts like a knife but way too unweildly for fleshing.

I've been working on the house a bit in preparation for winter.  I can't believe how much bear grease is coating every thing within a 10 foot radius, only stopped at that because of a fence.
