I found a brain!! Neighbor of a friend indeed had a deer head. Got the brain out after we cut off the skull cap. I had the hide all stretched out and applied the brain milkshake. I added 4 egg yolks for fun, not sure if it was necessary but gave me something to talk about. I rubbed it in and it seemed to soak it in. Hide was barely wet but a little damp. I pulled and pushed on it for about an hour with my son. We then smoked it. It’s looking pretty rough but it’s my first. Anyways thanks for the recommendations. Still not done probably need to work it a little more to get it butter soft.
