Mounting Deer
I had given a friend of mine the bucks that I and my son had shot last year,he had a friend who was wanting to start learning taxidermy and needed some to start with.After finaly tracking them down this month I find they have never been skinned out and are still in a freezer.How long are the hides good if they have been kept frozen?Or will I have to buy new hides when I take them to someone else to be mounted?Thanks for any advice given,,,,,,,,,,,

RE: Mounting Deer
I never leave them in the freezer more than 3 months. If they get freezer burned, they are a bear to get skinned out, but that's my personal preference. It doesn't mean they are ruined, it just makes it alot more difficult to work with and get quality results.
