and it doesn't seem like they ever do for me either. I had a friend of mine that I hunt with brought me some fur by. They have killed 46 bobcats off of their farm in the last 3 years. I am suppose to go down for a hunt in December. I can't wait. Here is what he dropped off at the house last week. I have got to go get 2 more bobcats in the morning that they got off of their farm this week.

At's not fair Ronnie :sad:
What are you doing with them that they are getting dropped off at your house?
I learned something today... it takes me forever to skin a fox, bobcat or anything else for that matter. What is a normal time to skin a fox, it was taking me a least 30 minutes or more per fox. I gave away all of that fur, but I am thinking about keeping one of these new bobcats. Carl told me it was a whopper sized cat. I may need to have it tanned.
Anyone know of a good tanner????? :eyebrownod:
"Good" is the key word there :wo:
Lemme do some checking, and get back to ya :confused:
Hey,isnt there a guy over at Pm that is pretty good. :roflmao:
Yeah, come to think of it there is :eyebrownod:
He uses Borax :eyebrow:
Man that's rough! Why hunt trophys when you can have them delivered! That's an easy fur check!
30 min isn't all that bad. The more you do the faster you'll get. I've read of guys who get dozens every year being able to skin them in less than 10 min. and I can do coons probably that fast, but it takes a bit longer on the dogs and cats cause I leave the paws on. For me, the paws is what takes the most time.
Nice batch of fur.
Wish I had a farm like that.
I heard tell of one good tanner.........what was his name.. :confused:
It seems like it was something like River rat or FnF'r of something like that.
Said his hair got cut though and he lost all of his strength. :roflmao:

Yea and he became a servant of a creature from up north,,,, a frog,,, I think it was?
Yeah.... servant :nono:
Nice batch of critters.
It takes me about ten minutes to skin a fox. 30 minutes for a coyote.
I had a guy do some furs for me. They turned out great. I'll see if I can remember his contact info...........
I met him once. Sure was an ugly cuss.
You only meet anybody once. Think about it. :nono:
But you gotten together more then once with that jerk. He's hunted with you, he's ate many meals with you, he's slept with you... :shck:...ok we wont go that far.....in the same room though. :laf:
So Buker,you call him ugly but you slept with him.How many beers did it take to drink him pretty? :laf:
