I have a question for you trapper types.
What signs/things do you look for in a fur to determine that it is "prime"? Is there a delineating factor that makes a fur "prime" or not?
The reason that I post this question is because we have many geographical locations represented here and I would like to have explained exactly what it is that make a fur "prime" or not. Being from Texas, we do not see the quality of fur that say our friends in Montana might see, but they are st some time or another "prime" for this area.
As professionals, (read selling furs for profit), what attributes do you look for when making the determination as to the "prime" condition of a fur?
I know there has to be some scientific explanation or at least an accepted methodology. I'm just not smart enough to explain it.
Thanks,
