Becker Report post Posted August 8, 2011 cohofishing, the best advice I can give is don't touch that velvet. I know its hard but if you look at the two velvet bucks that I posted, you can for sure tell a difference. That difference is one was REALLY handled and the other was hardly touched. Every time you touch that velvet the fine hairs get smashed down a little at a time. Once they have been smashed down there is no getting it back. As already mentioned there are lots of tips posted already. The main thing is keep them as cool as possible, and get them to your freezer or taxidermist as fast as possible. just whatever you do try your hardest not to touch them. (If you remember the buck that my wife Jody shot, I actually put the entire deer "minus the internals" inside the cab truck so it would be in the AC and rushed it back into town to my shop hahahaha) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
