In the same boat.
I was quoted $100 for a fox here in NV. I bought a tanning kit from Sportsman's Warehouse for $20 and have done 2 foxes and one coyote so far. My next coyote is almost skinned and I'll have enough of the kit left over to probably do one more coyote or two more foxes.
Small learning curve but if a person can skin an animal, they can certainly tan a hide. Skinning well is a skill I've yet to master. heretic, did you have to flesh the hide real good. did the leather turn out nice and soft or more heavy. thanks
