Nice video. It is much easier if you do it from the hide side when the hide is still damp after processing them.

Thanks Barry. This and your last movie bleaching peacock eyes are excellent for us do it ourselves persons.

[@Thefeatherbender]

Hi Dude, good to hear you found them useful.

[@mikewalters4994]

That's a GREAT TIP! I so for have five buck tails and two deer hides in the freeze that I'm gonna attempt to tan out for fly tying. I hope to find video's on how to do so. Thanks Mike Walters

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thanks Junior.

Thanks Barry, most informative info I've seen always comes from your articles and posts. I think they'd call me "thumbless Joe" if I tried that, lol! How you making out on the rainy day clean out? Very generous offer by the way. Well we had 14 inches of snow last night and our regular gun season for deer starts tomorrow. I'll see if I'm lucky enough to put all your deer hair prep to use! Thanks again!

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thanks Joe, good to know. Yeah you have to be careful with that knife! As we say in Norway, Skittjakt!

Kitchen roll does the same bud.

[@GeorgeSemel]

I got a couple fleshed out as we speak!

When I was a kid...meps paid 75 cents for a deer tail...25 cents for squirrels...they had to be skinned and salted...not a get rich quick scheme... yes...that was a while ago Btw...mule deer are a lot harder than white tails

[@Thefeatherbender]

We still get rewarded here $ 50 for fox and $35 for pine martin skins along with $5 for the left foot of any member of the crow family, but this is from our local hunting estate.

This was an awesome help for me, a great tip. I’m loving your videos, although I will admit I cringed watching you with that knife. Im a bit clumsy and I could just see myself slicing open my thumb. I’m going to have to work up the nerve to try it

[@Thefeatherbender]

Hi FRH, thanks very much, but take care with that knife...

[@adventureswithfrodo2721]

You really have no idea.

[@Thefeatherbender]

Thank you so much for your intelligent insight to my technique. Very much appreciated, I'm sure that many viewers will gain from it.
