Default Nu-be Needing Guidance...on tanning hides

Folks,

Taking a first step at tanning. I got my wife on a doe yesterday--she has never shot a gun, but she dropped a doe with my Blackpowder.

I want to make a hair-on, soft skin job out of the hide. What product works best, what do I need, etc?

Right now the cape is off the carcas--and pretty clean--no meat, much fat.

I didn't see a sticky--please link me if this has been discussed 5,000 times already!

Thanks for the help fellas!

Too much for any one person to do. Your best bet is to send it out to a tannery.
