we always hang them neck up. thats the way i was shown 50 years ago. might be a PA thing. however i have changed a few things over the years. i skin them as soon as i get it back to camp. if the weather is going to be below 40 for a while, i quarter them and let the pieces hang for several days. we used to let them hang whole with the hair on but that makes for a tough skinning job.
