Fox/Racoon/Yote Hats

I was looking online for some tips on making a yote hat, you know the kind.

And was wondering if any NJ taxidermists do this kind of work.  I read that I could get the hide professionally tanned and sew it myself, but I am a nerd and don't have a single creative bone in my body.  It would just look like roadkill on my head.

 

So if anyone does this kind of work or knows someone who does, let me know.  I want a yote hat to add to the winter wear collection (plus, I can wear it into the city when I have to teach classes...)

Send it out to be made. I had USA Foxx & Fur make a couple of coon skin hats made out of some pelts that weren't going to do well in auction. USA Foxx & Furs are very good garment makers, but they are not a good choice for strictly tanning pelts.

haskell hunter are you going to hunt or trap the yotes or buy them, if you havent already you should take trappers ed and catch one, it would be much more rewarding

 

I was going to hunt them.

 

I would take the trapper's ed, but they offer it at crappy times during the year.  I'll look into it next year because I want to reduce the coon population.  They've been hitting my feeder and I have 4,000+ photos of them on one of my cams.

 

I have one fox that always shows up, and the yote just started showing up on cam.  He's hunting the deer.  I'll have a deer on cam and no more than 10 minutes later the yote is on the cam.  That bastard has it coming.

There's a guy I see at Plattekill who skis while wearing one of these on, I think it's hysterical.     And he gets bonus points for upsetting snowflakes.
