Visited with Don over the weekend and learned alot. Class act, pulls no punches and gives straight talk. He helped me with correct grading of Beaver, coyote, possum talk, coon, etc. He even gave secrets to the trade (fur handling tips) that will help greatly....Thanks Don for letting me visit and (like I said to you when leaving) I will work for you a couple days next year to learn even more if you would have me. Here are a few pics......the camera I have is a freebee junker so pics are poor quality. Don in front of 4 giant bails of finished coon (he didn't want his pic took)...hehe...had to pull him in front of the camera...A rare pic of Don W. Don showing fur density,etc Close up of Don's "put up" (bad pic)

Thanks for the pictures Tim. Nice to put a face with a name ! Dang, I had always pictured Don as barrel chested, with an even bigger belly, cigar stuck in his mouth, and 80% bald!! Funny the pics your mind can draw of people, when you have never seen them or a pic of them!!! Looks like you had a nice visit. That is something I need to do, work with someone in the trade and understand the grading process better.

Gary I don't know ifin ya jokin or serious. But the window in that coon was plumb up to the penis hole. I kinda don't like windows that go to just under the front leg. Those pictures do not do those coon justice, by any means. Later today I am going to take my digital back there and get a little clearer pic. of the coons and I will take a window picture , just for you. Some of my windows fall short of the penis hole, but it is not necessary to cut them all that high. As long as the perspective buyer can see and feel the fur, is all that is necessary.
