Diné style white hide

This mule deer doe was hit by a neighbor’s truck. I harvested the roadkill and skinned it out with the full face, ears, arms, legs, tail, including the full hooves and dew claws. Tanned the old school way with brain matter. Very soft and nicely shaped hide. Tanning this style is tedious work and often hides don’t come out as nice as this one did.
