Some mag had an article claiming deer leather was better wearing than cow leather.

I worked a small portion of deer hide last year, came out ok. I plan on keeping the hides, and having someone make some gloves, maybe a possibles bag, maybe a soft sided briefcase, and if I find a design I like, a long coat.

I think a lot of people throw out a very useful part of the deer, one I plan on working with from now on.
