I'm at a hunting camp. Out of state. All legally acquired and tagged. I just don't want to waste these hides.i have 14 of them. Anybody tan? I'll bring them to you.
EDIT: These are RAW hides. Fat and all. I'm getting the sense people are unaware of that. These aren't prepared. They will dry up and crack on you, because they haven't been tanned! Tanning is the craft of Hyde and leather manufacturing. No disrespect.
DM me if interested.
Where in NH?
I'm out of the Manch area. I'll be coming back through Keene though.
Reaching out.
You can ask the local Native tribe (Abenaki), if they want some.
Contacts? Or was that a racist joke?
I don’t know if they were trolling (hope not) but even if they were it’s an excellent idea.
Anyone have a tanner they can recommend looking at getting some sheep skins done. .
What state? Tbere are rules regarding import of that stuff due to Chronic Wasting Disease and whatnot
I don't want to give out personal names, but here is the contact for the chief of the tribe.

The headquarters are in Vermont, but the tribe extends into New Hampshire. I'm sure he can help you out there.
I can also ask someone in NH if they are willing to talk with you, if you would like.
Do you have nay venison too? Can pay a fair price
Also, NH Intertribal Native American Council. Nhinac@gmail.com
I'd love one. I can trade baked breads?
No that's illegal. There is an Elk Farm in NH tho
The hell you mean illegal? I've been buying venison from a couple farms all over the state
Buying farmed venison from a farm is not illegal to do. Buying wild venison though is illegal. The only parts you can sell on a wild deer are head, hide and feet, this is all in the F&G Code.
There are a few, believe it or not. I know of one in Bedford and one in I think Lee?
NY. CWD hasn't been reported if I'm not mistaken.
Yeah, DM me.
This is from the NHFG website: "New York is no longer considered a CWD-positive jurisdiction by New Hampshire. However, New York-killed deer still may not be transported through Massachusetts or Vermont. As a consequence, New Hampshire Fish and Game recommends that hunters continue the past practice of deboning New York deer."
There was never a prohibition on hides in NH, but I don't know about current laws in MA or VT.
Is it illegal to donate wild venison to homeless shelters? I was thinking about doing this if I got into hunting.
Just by your comment we can tell you'll never be a hunter.
Yes, but it has to be processed through a wild game processor.
You'll never do it
Why number 2?
Because of the amount of money and time you'll blow to bag a deer and then you have to pay the processor, chances are you won't. This isnt Virginia or Martha's Vineyard, its much harder.
Elk farm in Bedford?
Yup. I went there to shoot woodchucks.
What's illegal?
Selling wild game meat.
