It's perfectly okay to remove the tail before freezing. Pheasant tails are usually processed seperately anyway. You can cut it off leaving just a little skin and either freeze it or flesh out the meat/fat and borax it and card it with pins and put it aside to dry.
Good luck..
thank you for the info Jenny
