I have been having tanning problems, The last 2 deer I have tanned the hair has pulled or slipped. I tan at 40lbs use tanning crystals, I have used this method for years with no trouble. The 2 deer I did a guy let them hang in 60 deg weather for 5 days. I think this is the problem but don't know. Never had this trouble before. any ideas
