Back


Front

you can go ahead and leve the crap on the head but it will look like crap.

haha whats on that poster lol?

thanks

well how do u get it off the head?

Question for Ryan. Are those marks across the hide from snares? I have never seen a snared coon and just wondering.

Here's a couple but not too good of shots.

cool

thanks

Heres a few pics.

Nice fox Dave. lol

man i wish mine looked that good

why do you guys cut so much out of the bottom on the front and how do you go about judgeing where to cut it outand do you have to flip them before you sell them (FUR SIDE OUT)

Nice job Dave Plueger! thanks for sharing

anymore?

Well those all help a bunch. Quetion: I notice quite a few boards used, and some wire, and some both type. Do you typically use wooden stretchers on the bigger coons, or both? I know wood makes the fur look fuller, but is it a noticably larger price from wooden stretched to wire? Or just a look of satisfaction?

I would like to try both, and get the feel for it, but just thought I would ask you guy's opinion.

Thanks

lotsa nice pics on this post coon always look so nice when put up roperly thanks for sharing

My country buyer says the tails don't matter because they aren't used. I plan to ship to NAFA next year and plan on using cardboard to make them more appealing since it's an auction....

This one has a red butt from the snare.





Hope it helps,

Dave, thats quite a few coons. Is that this years catch?

Good look'in fur Kyle. Drop your loops down to 4-5 inches and you will avoid those hip catches. I love it when a young feller takes pride in his work and is willing to take the time to make it happen. Great job!!!

good tip dave. do you get docked much for snare marks ? we cant snare on land, im just curious.

dirthole, I'll find out in a week or two. They get sold at NAFA soon.
Yeah your right Dave, I made my loops a little big. It sure is nice to go in the shed and see all of your furs hanging up stretched.

Ya.. them linies across the hide are from snares.. I think the one thats not yet dry is from a coni since its close to the ears on the neck.

Here's my first two that I put up,the one on the left I stretched a little wide.
