Split jaw

Submitted by Joel on 11/25/2003. ( ) 12.43.88.164

I am just getting started , and I have recieved a doe from a friend that the DNR had cut the mouth webbing to the jaw to age the doe easier.I am trying to get several deer to practice on & figured I'd do a doe as well. With the short hair along the jaw line , is it possible to hide the stitching when it is sewn up? If not , I will just tan the hide & dispose of the head. I have 6 small to average bucks to work with as it is. Any advise or tips would be appreciated.

Sew it up with a tiny needle (fabric type) and thread.

Your problem is one we deal with daily. all cuts can be repaired with a needle and thread.
