capoeirajosh Report post Posted July 10, 2013 Ok, I am VERY new to the world of predator hunting and trapping, so bare with me, haha. For the ones out there that sell their fur, do you have to trap the animal in order to sell the fur, or can you shoot the animal? My thought was that shooting the animal would obviously put a hole in the fur. Is that ok? What do you do with your fur after you skin your animal to get it ready and in shape to sell? Again, all of this might seem silly, but like I said, I am SUPER new to all of this. Thanks in advance. :-) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

capoeirajosh Report post Posted July 11, 2013 />capo- have you shot any coues? explaining "the HOW TO prepare the fur" is beyond typing. you need to talk to bowhunt. I actually have not shot any coues. I just started taking big game hunting seriously last winter. I have been going deer hunting for most of my life with my dad and had plenty of opportunities to shoot deer, but didn't take them, because they were smaller bucks. I decided to really start taking hunting seriously, not only because I love it, but because I would love to one day be able to be self sufficient when it comes to my meat.
