ollie Posted April 15, 2010 Report Share Posted April 15, 2010 Hi mate. I just cut the tail off, including the bone. When I get home, using a surgical blade, I cut about 2 inches down the length of the bone, and peel back the fur. I place the bone in my vice, and pull the fur back gently. Sometimes the fur falls apart, but I seem to be getting the hang of it now. I soak the fur in tanning solution for 24-48 hours, and then wash I wash the fur and hang it up to dry. I have quite a few hanging in my shed now. The technique I suggested works, but as I said it is sometimes very difficult to pull the tail off. We used to keep the tails but to be honest after a while they just cluttered up the place. Could probably sell them on fleabay Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DoubleTap Posted April 16, 2010 Report Share Posted April 16, 2010 (edited) There used to be a fox tail in my garage, dog used to always look at it so let her play with it for a bit and then take it off of her but within minutes she had eaten it Nice shooting mate, keep it up Edited April 16, 2010 by DoubleTap Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
