Use a sharp flesher, hold at an angle and shave it off the back of the neck. By shave I mean the blade is cutting the fat more than it is scraping it. By holding the blade at an angle it will cut the fat next to the skin.

score the head behind the ears with a knife to start. easier to get your fleshing tool started then to remove.

the more coon you do, the better you will be. the way it sounds your coon are not that bad now. i have seen a lot of terrible coon put up. sounds like you have the desire to put out quality, it will come with more practice.

I found that the Lansky sharpening system gets it razor sharp and unless the edge has been mistreated, it sharpens up quick and easy. Floyd - What angle hole are you using on your Lansky? I just got one but am not shure which angle to put on, since the Necker is beveled one side only. Thanks, Ed
