Here is the yote that Forked Horn got last weekend. The neck required stitching and the surgery went OK. I wasn't able to save it. ;) The pelt turned out great, though.Posted Image

You can hop but you can't hide. Yahi Bowmen. Its not how far you can shoot but how close to the game you get when you shoot. Sights we don't need any sights. Why waist time reloading when I can be making arrows.

Nice work boz, she cleaned up nice! Do you sell them? If so, i'll save all that I get for you if you want them? Going back out this Saturday. Only taking the .223 though, lucky for you! :-) I took it out to the range yesterday and got it dialed in with the new scope, so there shouldn't be as much fur damage now.

Upholstery thread. I contacted USA Foxx and Furs (who I ship to),and they suggested it over monofilament if it was going to be tanned. The monofilament could react with the tanning solutions and is less tolerant of the softening process after tanning.db

Who do you ship them to ? nice pelts. John Im good at removing hooks from people parts , mostly my owen :lol:
