I've got one out in the freezer from a big cow, I brought it home because a friend said they wanted one. I guess he didn't think I was actually going to bring him one because he changed his tune when I told him I had one for him lol!!
I've tanned fox, yote & bobcat... I honestly do not care to ever tackle an elk hide DIY. no thanks.
I might send this cow hide in for a hair on garment tan just to throw over a chair out an camp or something... but for now I'm getting my critter decor fix by DIY tanning the little toothy critters like I mentioned above.
my god I couldn't imagine breaking a DIY thick azz dried elk hide by hand, it would be like 1/4 inch plywood.
