tannery

[*****]

 what is the best tannery for the money??
 
  i sent cape's and hides to diffrent tannery's,i admit some were pricier, some were reasonable,some were low, fast turn around long turn around etc....

 but for an example,i went with low cost fast turn around the cape came back perfect very little shrinkage,and finale fleshing needed.....

    OK,now i went to the high pricier for a game head,white fallow deer,it came back about a year later,yellow,sopping wet,and it was sliced to he%$% and back,and ear's darn near ripped off.

   one tannery i sent a large tom bobcat to it took 5-6 month's to get back, it was a smaller cat,but it did have my punch code in it,how did it shrink i don't know?

but i hope you are getting the point of what I'm asking,(i don't tan,i think that's the way of income for them)

 so who would you trust to take care of your personal trophy's

thanks for reading

thank you all

These are stupid questions. Whichever tannery I use is my favorite. Your results will reflect how many people choose to answer your question. Try one, if you dont like it try another. The only thing that matters is what satisfies YOU. You will get yes votes for all the ones you listed. Sivko satisfies me, you might not like them.

I guess if you cant trust your self to tan, you got to trust someone else, and that is never going to give you 100% satisfaction, so you cut them some slack and deal with it, or do it your self.
