    Try contacting a local butcher that process's deer and you should be
    able to get one. It's funny that you want one. While having my deer
    cut up a nice 8 point was awaiting its turn and someone cut the tail 
    off while I was there to give to a young kid that collected them.

1422.3Got one...17765::RUMANTue Dec 13 1994 16:058
    
      I kept mine from my bowkill this year for no particular reason
    except that someone mentioned it. I don't really have any plans for
    it, so you're more than welcome to have it. I could run it down to 
    Gus's on the 14th or we can make other arrangements. Just let me 
    know.

1422.4same treatment as you would a full cape...5060::LAFOSSEWHEN THE BULLET HITS THE BONE...Wed Dec 14 1994 08:395
are you guys pulling the cartilege out of the tail hide?  you definately want to
do that and salt and tan it... otherwise the bacteria will ruin the hide and the
hair will slip...

FWIW,  Fra
