We did have a large time Will, Steve looking forward to it,Jon hope your neck is better,the practice range is set,Jimmy/Beau and GregB got that done last weekend while we was out having fun.

Got my ripped hide scraped yesterday,turned out a good piece of Rawhide,Will maybe we can do the same with yours,I tightened it up yesterday and I think we can scrap it ok.[Sadie got on the hides on the rack] if she hadn't been in a Mothers way I would have really gave he a good licking.

We need to get them off the rack and get 3 or 4 more racked up.I want to save at least 1 or 2 that need fleshing for the Classic,so we can do a demo on how we flesh and rack them,then dry scrap them[depending on the weather] we know it won't rain.

I think I have enough to do that .

That's a great idea about the hide demo at the Classic Pappy! Malcolm is making me look bad since he made bucksins and I haven't....a rain event at the Classic? Nah!!!

Pappy, I'd also like to see the hide demo. I'll help if needed.

Heck yeah Pat, he's always looking for someone to assist in breaking hide.

Careful Pappy, there seems to be an awful lot of people wanting to help tan your hide!

; ::)D

Hope the weather is OK to do it,I looked yesterday and I have 2 hides in the freezer that need to be fleshed so I will save them and plane on doing it. I know Jesse showing me made all the difference,I use to lay them out and try to scrape flesh/fat and membrane off,It would take forever and not do a very good job.You can do it like we do it in 30 minutes and do a fine job ,quicker once you get the hang of it.
