Yes of course, I know what their like, deer stalkers only!! Ok mate I'll make enquiries about the venison tomorrow and report back.
Sussex Bushcraft group meet for MAY: 25th to 27th
- Thread starter Neumo
- Start date
Oh, and just to clarify, shall I try and get it with the hide on if poss? Spot of deers skinning might be good, I've only done it a couple of times. Robin a hogget is a young adult sheep, not quite mutton yet.
I'll have a word with one of the small holders i do some work for now and again to see if he has a Hogget available, wont be seeing him for a couple of weeks though, he is pretty handy with Deer as well, he has offered me some in the past when ive camped out on his land, offered me some Venison, so i said i'll have shoulder, his reply "you will have the whole thing as ive got to go and shoot it for you"

Removing the skin is easy, ending up with something usable is another matter! Anyone fancy teaching a tanning tutorial?
The skin will come off the animal a lot easier if it has been hung for a few days. If you skin them straight away you have to be very careful. If you want to brain tan it, ask them to leave the head on. If they want to check the lymph nodes in the head ask them to keep it with the carcass.
I stalk more than deer, I have a camo mankini. I wear it when I'm out doing a spot of Biffing!

Cheers mate. The problem with our wood is it is very narrow and flanked by livestock on all sides. So think it isnt the best place to shoot. Also I get enough visits fom the police up there when I camp with people reporting me as a terrorist. I think having a gun too would push the neighbourhood watch potty.
Hi folks, if it's ok i'd like to come and join you for the meet this month (Saturday & Sunday).
As you can see from this being my first post after joining nearly two years ago, I don't spend much time on the forum, but I recently met Jackcbr on a course, who encouraged me to come and join you lot, so if it gets too crowded at this one, you can pin some of the blame on him haha.

There's normally enough things I get blamed for, so one more isn't going to hurt. If I make it, I'll only be there Friday night so you're more than welcome to my tree Saturday night.

Added to the list for you Rico.
It is going to be a busy old meet this time round, which is good to see. The site was big enough to accommodate everyone, we may just need to spread out some.
Cheers Jack, will you be about during the day on Saturday? I'm hoping to arrive in the morning, but it all depends on how late I have to work on Friday.
Sorry guys, Last minute holiday planned by the wife to cumbria!
