The less leather can make the finished product weak. It is not the hair that holds the product together. This can be helped by gluing a backing.

Was that to GFW? The GFW Canada buyers don’t want summers.

here there's not much difference between summer skunks and fall skunks, here the belly real never gets good, I've been watching for years, the spring early spring are the best imo

Putting up this thawed one on the left tonight, it was taken last night. The two frozen ones on the right are mid August skunk, will try tomorrow.
See how much has changed compared to the August 1 skunk I put up. Fur looks good.

Shakey, your phone should have a resize option somewhere in the edit menu. Can make them smaller that way. Or take screenshots of the pic, those are smaller resolution.

Nice looking skunks.
