I love that you can do this, and wow, would I like my boys to see it, if not learn from you some day.
But…. this thread reminds me mightily of the time we took a steer in for processing, and we saw the hides piled up next to the holding pen. They were stacked up, salted, and, well, gross.

How did you get a moose?
Mike

Mike
/ June 12, 2007Okay, but again the first question.
Where did you get a moose? Its not like they just wander around Irving loose (although that would be cool).

/ June 12, 2007Aw, man, LQ, I was going to play canny…
yes, I did this, and I’m hoping to get a run from a deer processor later in the season…
Mike
/ June 12, 2007Ah, that makes sense. As much sense as someone who buys a moosehide to tan himself would make (snicker).
Next time get some Moosejerky with it.
