Never get tired of you showing your skinning skills! Shows years of experience.
He makes it look SO easy
That steel trick has saved me an enormous amount of time. Learned it from the original professional fur handling videos!
As usual another great informative video. I have learned a tremendous amount from watching your videos. Keep up the great work!!!
dude your filled with so much knowledge thanks for sharing I've been picking apart your skinning set up for a while now so I'm glad you went over it in detail..
Thanks for always giving good advice to all us trappers an the young ones getting into trapping
Damn I can remember watching all your videos multiple times to learn as much as I could ab trapping but nothing helps more than getting hands on thanks for all the tips and pretty much getting me started
Great info been using your technique for awhile it definitely helps save time. Love ur videos keep them coming
I wish I'd had videos of your expertise many, many years ago when I was doing a lot of skinning and butchering. You are a real master, thanks.
I really appreciate the tips just second year trapping need all the help I can get been hunting raccoons with hounds in these southern Illinois hills a long time
I did my best to copy your machine with a few exceptions. My opening clamp top support is made from cable and my upper pully is mounted to a leaf spring stack short of the main leaf and the spring stack is fastened to the sign post. I can use it free standing but can't pull very hard by hand- base is virtually the same as yours so not enough support to pull much- need to fasten it to a wall up high or lag base to floor. Thanks for being so generous to give such a detailed machine dimensions in the other video.
I enjoy your videos. You keep it simple. I'm only in my second year of trapping with not a lot of places to trap. But I make due. Your always informative and it helps me out. I like the use of the sharpening steel.
You should start a channel on Rumble.... They support hunters and don't censor content like KZhead.
There's my goal for next season. To have a skinning setup like that. Thank you so much for all your help and videos. David
Excellent skinning video. I love the rope and hook idea to keep the critters from swinging on you. I have several of those sharpening steels and now know what I can do with them! Thanks, and Merry Christmas!!!!
I started trapping over 40 years ago in Illinois, it’s nice to see someone who knows how to handle what they catch on the line! Keep up the good work
Great video 👍, thanks for sharing
Appreciate your tips, I’ve trapped since I was a kid,,, long time ago now lol,,, you have a lot of great simple make it easy pointers, Keep your videos coming, I enjoy learning new things and really greatful, You keeping our tradition alive, Have a great merry Christmas and to your family..
Thank you for this information
Thank you. That's awesome!
Your channel helps me to motivate my kids to trap Stu, good stuff! I have a piece if road sign post just like yours, building my skinning machine this year off season.
I love watching you work! You have a great technique for efficiency... I watch your videos over and over again and learn something every time...
Always a pleasure. I have a set up similar to yours and it the cats a$$ in saving me time and money. I pull usually around 100 coon a year. The set up works on most critters equally as well. Got to watch the thinner skin ones though, but once you get a rhythm and technique down, it’s a joy to use. I made my set up also, except of course the winch. Purchase a decent winch. Some of the cheap ones burn out. The only comment I have is… I drink better beer than you!!!!! I see the can of Nat Lite sitting there. All good. I have been watching your videos for years now. Always Top Lot.. Peace Y
Love watching you skin, makes me feel like a complete loser cause you do it so effortlessly!! Keep them coming man!! 👍👍
Best fur channel on youtube !!! Thanks man for all the years of you teaching us ;)
Thanks for giving me a few extra time saving tricks. Seconds count. Also, curious if you still use your 25 talon ss to dispatch? Had to send mine back to Airforce to see if they could fix. Max power didn’t cut it. Had to go back to the 22.
I went back with 22 as well
One of the best all-around trapping sites. Love the fur handling videos.
With fur prices as they are, is it worth your time and gas costs to harvest raccoons? Or does KZhead revenue make it worthwhile? Anyway, I’m always glad to see you putting up a video, so thanks.
Hey 👋 I will say that monetarily it is not worth the money. But the exercise, satisfaction, enjoyment is what I do it for. Anyway stay in the woods. Enjoy
@@timothyrothrock4173 You are preaching to the choir on that! You know the saying about a bad day on the lake and a good day in the office? :-)
Great instruction as usual. I built the same skinning machine using your previous videos and it sure works slick. Made my main post taller and made my clamps adustable for width. I don't do many racoons but I have done coyotes, fisher, otter on it, and because it's tall, I 've done several deer on it. Well worth building if you got the time and materials.... now if I could only figure out how to do beavers on it :-) .
Could probably do the center cut and put a snare from the gambrel around the base of the tail and use the clamps on the corners by the tail
@@bent5434 If I get a low value beaver (not hard these days) I might give that a try. Thanks for the idea Ben...
Thank you, my first coon skinning experience was hanging a road kill , by the way, beautiful coon with no visible damage, from my kids swing set and waiting for them to get home from school. We shared a learning moment together. Your method is much nicer.
Well done. Keep those kids grounded!
Good video thx for sharing tips👍😊
Thanks Amigo.. I have your fur handling series saved and use it a lot.. I don't catch a lot of fur but making what I do catch look good is a priority Your tips and examples are a great help.. Thanks again for these videos..
All the trapping info. you give is great. Tips, tricks and know hows are awesome, you have a great channel..... keep doing What you do.
Will that steel and everything pretty much work the same for any critter even a small fox with out taring the hide behind the legs or anything?
been watching you for 9 years and still pick up little techniques that make skinning easier! Thanks for sharing your knowledge and experience. It has been awesome and amazing how your channel has grown!
Great video and instruction. Thank you for taking the time and doing the work for this post👍
Thanks again for sharing!
Nice I have the same looking harbor freight lift. I am now thinking about using your raise up method with something anchored to the floor for my deer. I always use a gambrel and hang em upside down. But doing it that way the fron shoulders struggle. If I had an anchor set into the concrete I could make a clamp of sorts then raise it up to finish the process Well done
Bud I want ya to know I have been hunting and trapping for most of my life and to see such a better way to skin and to use a steel on legs and to start the tail I just want to say thank you so very much again bud thank you
I would like to see the apparatus bellow the camera level. What clipped the first raccoon too. A butcher shop I went to a long time ago had similar setup and used the winch to pull hide off deer. Never been able to remember how he did it. Much help is appreciated. Thank you.
Excellent fur handling video. Great tips. Thank you.
Those that have the experience makes it looks so easy. Thanks for the tips. Can you do a coyote demo? I am having a heck of a time with the eyes.
Love the video man... If KZhead giving.you issues call it making a fur coat start to finish....just start a whole bunch of different coats that you never get around to finishing
Good job iam glad I tuned in a few years ago & built my own skinning machine.👍
You showed me this and have been using it ever since I seen it 4 years ago. The video is older then that but didn't matter. 👊💀🍻🇺🇲🍻
Great information. At first I thought he was talking about the natural light on the table.
after watching a lot of your videos i tried the steel technique and it worked really well
Very Interesting. Great tips.
I need to invest in a skinning machine takes me about 5-10 mins without one
You're a Pro for sure. Slick tips! Many thanks for your teachings for new and old trappers.
Works good with the front legs
steel rod works good to. good video.
Another great video!!
An air compressor with a ball pump needle tip will pop the hide lose from any animal in seconds. Insert just under the hide on any leg and let it rip.
I haven't run a trap line in many years. KZhead didn't exist back then, but there's a lot of info here that would have helped me. I have a question of a serious nature. When I first started I actually was vaccinated against rabies as a precautionary measure. You never know what you'll encounter out there. Does anyone else here take that precaution or is it just not a concern?
Well done
Thank you for the steel tip. Can you do a video with more detail around the ears and eyes? That is where I have trouble. Thanks again. I love your channel. Been watching for a few years. Just started trapping late last year.
He has good instruction on the professional fur handling videos. Search those links. After a while you can see where they are not a problem. When I started 40 years ago I press around the head with my thumb. You can feel better where you need to cut. Take your time it's not a race.
I have a larger setup like your hoist system that I use for deer. I like your idea on the hook to the chain to keep it from turning. Thanks
That is awesome! Thanks for sharing! Question: Have you ever used these techniques on a larger animal (like a deer)?
I was wondering the same.
First year trapping and skinned my first raccoon last night. Used your previous videos as a guide and they helped out.
Skinning different critters is a great help. Fleshing takes a while to pick up. I ruined quite a few hides. Opossum are a great way to practice for Fleshing. They are thin skinned like a fox. Except with more fat. Good luck and stay in the woods.
@@timothyrothrock4173 yup ruined the 1st one. The raccoon was very fat and when fleshing, got a lot of milky substance on it. Just didn’t seem I could get the flesh clean but because I kept pushing hard with the sharp side, cut the hide up. Would it be best to skin the animal, dry it for 24hrs or freeze it somewhat and then flesh it???
Try leaving it freeze before fleshing. Than let it thaw enough to get it on a fleshing board. I skin one day and flesh the next. The fat has to set up. You will notice a lot of fur sheds have refrigerator in. There not there to keep beer cold. I never really use sharp side of the fleshing blade. If the fat is set up it comes off decent enough. And I use a scrapping tool for fox.
@@joehunts432 also just remembered to kinda get a feel for a lump under the hide. Ticks and nipples are a hole punch fast. Don't feel bad about it. Your learning without someone showing up close. If you know an older trapper ask them to show you.
@@timothyrothrock4173 thank you for the advice!
Awesome trick thanks
Thanks for the hard work and wisdom man.
Your video just came up on my feed. I’m pretty much a city boy. I have skinned a couple deer and butchered with my friend “Rambo” the deer slayer. I’m a hobby machinist, I like your clamping systems and the Harbor Freight hoist/winch system. Vent hole? Lol
Good video ! Can definitely tell you've done a lot.... with hands in it all the time, you -- see -- ways of making it easier more efficient.
Hey Guy, that's a neat little trick for skinning a lot of animals. As you were skinning these critters, I was wandering. Do you ever eat these little rascals? I have heard about other people eating them but I have not tried them myself. If you don't eat them, what would you do with all of them carcasses?
I really struggle between the legs on coyote, think you can do an old school skinning of a yote without the skinning machine video?
That skinning machine is epic. Never seen anything like it.
You make everything look way to easy. Could you possibly do a new coyote vid? Maybe a new update vid on ur skinning machine, and clamping system ect how their build what you used ect. As always great vid keep them coming
Really enjoy watching you put up fur. Not sure what I did wrong but when I used the steel to separate the tail before pulling it it kinda twisted and ripped the fur a bit. Any suggestions?
Man your slick ! Learned some great tips! Thanks....
Pretty slick set up.
Does that rolling technique work on coyotes and fox too?
The best thing I learned fro you was BC Newfe. Lol. Your a damm good skinner son. Your winching idea is great. I used to skin them sitting on my horse Not that fast for sure
I support your right to make a living my fear is irresponsible over hunting and if these animals are eaten or thrown away.
I watched your original video skinning a coon with a steel four years ago or so and I've been doing it since. I actually just posted a video of me doing it the same way on my manual machine.
I took your advise on this a year ago and yes I agree saves time and frustration on the arms, I use a long screw driver as it does the same job
You make it real easy is the way it should be i learn today from you lots of cutting corners and easier to do and quicker ..ex video
👍
Merry Christmas 🎄☃️
Lol I use the same thing
That is awesome I used to skin by and and it took a lot more than a minute 45
Thank you for making this video. Your techniques would have helped me a lot when I was trapping back in the 1980's. I have a high raccoon population on my property now and when I start the population reduction I will be using the info I learned here.
Great video Just doing my part for the algorithms 😊
Thanks for the video!!! Always great content!! Do you skin beaver with your skinning machine? If you do, would love to see that!
Another great video thanks 💯💯💯💯👍🏽
That steel is the exact same kind I have, an had mine for 30 years, Awesome beaver video's also, 👍👍👍👍 Now I also know what to do with my hoist and leg holding clamp build,
Great job , thanks for sharing!
Do you use the steel when opening a coyote too? Thank you
Workin smarter not harder is always nice lol
Good skinning demo CC
Lol a tail stripper never seen one before. My grandfather showed me to use screw drivers that's what I've used since the late 70's. I don't have any of the fancy tools you have and laugh when you say old school . My old school is 2 pieces of heavy wire with a heavy swivel hanging from a floor joist in the basement in the center. And a hatchet to scrape the hides not as quick as a draw knife but can do a better job than the fur buyer that was in our area
Thanks man
Man I love your videos, takes me 30 min to skin 1 ricky
thank you
Wow I should have watched this before my trapping course it took me an hour to skin 1 raccoon and we’re not even at the pole yet
I could have watched every critter you had left be skinned!
Thank you for these tips!!! I'll definitely be putting them to use.
As new trapper I love your channel. 🇺🇲
Thank you for sharing!!!
Nice! Very informative!
Just found your videos. Great job. I'm subbed
