Tanned moose hide

[cnelk]

I got my cow moose hide back yesterday.
Turned out great!

Moyles Tannery did an excellent job.

In another post I mentioned I fleshed and salted the hide in the community park of the local town near where I hunted.
I let it dry a few days and then shipped it out.

I can even see the entrance and exit bullets holes.

How much salt did you need for a hide that size?

Looks beautiful! What are you going to do with it?

If I remember correctly I used 5-6lbs of non-iodized salt (cheaper)

I kept applying salt to areas that really soaked it in

I’ve been telling people that it’s my ‘rut rug’
