Saw the thread about rubbed coyotes and it got me thinking:

When you get fur with rubs, is it ever worth the effort to put up, or just sell green? Wondering whether you can recoup the effort on less than perfect hides. Thanks.

If there is enough good useable fur,tan for your own use.

Our good ones are next to worthless, if I get one that’s rubbed, it doesn’t even leave the woods.

I leave them too, If im lucky they will pay a few bucks and most wont even pay that. I have tanned a couple for wall hangers and as long as they're not terrible you can make them look decent on the wall

Tan them for yourself good learning experience if you attempt to tan yourself.
