Hey if you ever need a hand getting a critter out, I'm not far away. Give me a shout. Could have brought a machete or brush trimmer. Good work by the way!

Non iodized salt has been my friend when hair slippage has been a worry. I am not sure if it is 100% fail safe, but we used to do a lot of bear hunting and so long as we got all the meat off and used plenty of fine feed salt we never had any problem regardless of the weather

Today I look back on it and say "Man it was worth every ounce of pain". Last night it was "oh man Im not 23 any more and this is the worst".
I cooked up a couple steaks off that bear tonight and it was the best tasting meat I think I have ever eaten.

"When my bow falls, so shall the world. When me heart ceases to pump blood to my body, it will all come crashing down. As a hunter, we are bound by duty, nay, bound by our very soul to this world. When a hunter dies we feel it, we sense it, and the world trembles with sorrow. When I die, so shall the world, from the shock of loosing such a great part of ones soul." Ezekiel, Okeanos Hunter
