Skinning for a Head Mount

1) When skinning leave plenty of hide. I have found it best to hang the deer upside down to properly skin.  1. Cut around the front legs at

the knee; do not cut the - throat, brisket, front of the legs or the armpits. 2. Skin the neck down as far as you can without cutting the hide;

sever the neck being careful not to cut the hide.  

Unless you have to, do not cape out the head – bring it to me and let me cape it for you, after all you’re paying for the service either way. 

I can get your antlers back to you right away if you want to show them off for awhile.
