I used a 3 inch Kershaw pocket knife and a hatchet for 100% of my bear last fall... keep the hatchet attached to my meat pack! knife in pocket.
I used the old heel to heel and peel the whole thing...that way...any mount I can think of is an option!
Next bear or 3 will be upright 1/2 body wall mounts...now that I got my rug...
i took every scrap of meat...ate all but about 10 pounds that went to catwithboost and wifey...many of u ate it at the spring get together! so u all are now wetarded too
People always discuss the butchering...many dont taxidermy... If I wasnt gonna get taxidermy done... it would take like 10 minutes to quarter and start hiking...
we have two great taxidermists on here...Michelle Nelson and that Bucklucky guy
so theres plenty of reason to get it done up.
as for the meat... lots of steaks...some stew meat...few roasts...and thats it...anything fancier and u better talk to Kelly_catwithboost!!!
