Deer hides

[Longtimehunter]

Hello everybody fellow San Diego hunter here, I have not had any luck filling my deer tag yet, I was wondering and hoping if anybody has or had any luck filling their tag and is willing to part with the hide and the brains I will gladly drive anywhere to pick it up. Any takers would be great. Good luck to everybody for the last weekend of general season. Thank you everyone who takes time to read this.
Happy and safe hunting to everybody.

Curiosity is killing me. Why do you want the brains?

Just asking what everyone else is thinking.

Brains is a way of tanning hides. Look it up it's a thing

That's fucking awesome.

There’s a pretty good episode of Mountain Men on Discovery Channel where Tom Orr does this. “Every animal has enough brain matter to tan its own hide…”

I like to tan the hides, I make stuff out of them, like pipe bags and medicine bags stuff like that. It’s the best way to tan a hide! It makes the buckskin real soft and easy to work with.

That's funny that exact line and episode came to mind when I saw this post.

It’s a true statement, each animal has enough brains to tan its own hide! It’s really awesome if you think about it!
