If they have plenty of food, give them something interesting to smell

I seen on "Coon Creek Outdoors" that he had a wire going through each board on the stretcher that formed a loop. Wasn't sure how he did it, or if the wire poked the hide on the opposite side of the stretcher. Seemed risky to me, but again, not sure how he did it. Thanks for the help.

Also keep any grease that may run from ending up on the skirt of the pelt as well. I hang mine from the spreader bar. Colorado Search and Rescue- Interfering with natural selection since 1976
