Salting, freezing, and drying deerhides:

there is definatly a long learning curve. It is very tedious work, & it is easy to tear or rip holes in the hides while fleshing, and then again when softening the hides.I tried brain tanning a sheep hide, the fleshing process was freaking tedious. I didn't have the patience or technique. I kept the hide for a few years but it just got moved around my garage from place to place collecting dirt and crap until one day I just tossed it.
