Thank you for taking the immense amount of time that it probably took to make this video, walking us through the steps needed. I've got two whitetail hides that were in need of rescue, I'm like, now what do I do? I love deer, they are majestic in their own way. (The hides came from two deer who had been hit nearby our property. It's a drive that, unless ill, I make daily. The first, a buck, had been there for about 36 hours in below-freezing temps before I decided to go for it; he was frozen when I cut him open. The second, a doe, was there for about 6 hours. I couldn't leave them there to rot like the garbage flying around. So I determined to get the hides, to give them SOME dignity. Sounds silly, I'm sure, but that's the way I see it.) I put the capes in the freezer and voila, here I am.

Hi. I am from all the way The Netherlands and I hunt in Germany. I have a really nice thick hide from a roe deer which I tan at home. I am using a recipe from a taxidermist. So far everything goes fine. I watched your video and just confirms that I am doing it the right way, although I have some of my own habits. I have already tanned several hides, but not all are very souple. So I hope this time it is somewhat more flexible. Good idea of sanding the hide. I did that too with one of my previous ones. By hand, that is. Not with a machine. Thanks for the video!!

I had my skins in a salt bath for a couple of weeks and I'm worried they're past the point of no return now. I did have a question about any maintenance the skins might need. Is there anything you do to the skins several years down the road? Or do they keep well enough after your tanning method?

Or would it take much longer? I also would love to see a video on a predator. My Dad has always said he would love to have a coyote hide.

@Mikechrisx205 ай бұрын
- I haven't tried it as I don't own a pressure washer. I do know guys who do a lot of tanning that have, and none of them like it. Too messy, it doesn't remove all the fat like a knife will, and you can't do it in cold weather, when most of us tan most of our hides.
