Caught my first badger and wanna try tanning it myself. Threw it on my adjustable yote stretcher and it’s a little baggy in the middle. What kind of stretcher does a guy use on em?

I have no experience with badger but have done a fair bit of tanning.
You might consider opening it up to tan it.


Forget that fear of gravity-get a little savagery in your life.

If your going to tan It dry It fur side In. To tan It your going to have to turn It anyway.

I use a coon board for badgers. They can be a little baggy in the middle as you said, but take the shape of the form when they dry. The stretcher you are using looks ok to me. I had a couple tanned with the feet on last year and they turned out great.
