Fox board size is best, because skunks have a narrow neck on them. Coon is to wide unless you use wire stretchers and then you need to bend the stretcher in in thre neck area.
You can get away with stretching skunks 6 to 6 1/2 inches wide at the base.

I believe Grawe sells a skunk stretcher too. Most guys I know use a #23 wire stretcher.

Yea you can buy skunk boards now. Matter of fact i will be heading out here soon to buy some. They are the same size as fox boards but the neck isnt as wide as the fox boards
