    there used to be a place in either Winona or LaCrosse, that used to make deer skin gloves.. I don’t believe that either are still in operation. I used to be able to buy “skuffs” that were not perfects, for an exceptionally low price. does anyone know of a place that is still making deer skin gloves?

    Ubers in Owatonna? They did years ago as did Cain’s Hide and Furs near Carley State Park, but I am not sure if the kids took over Earl’s operation at Cain’s.

    My buddy shot one and we told him, he would be lucky to get 1 glove, it was so small… I donate mine to Habitat

    I know a guy who shot one so small the whole thing (gutted) fit in a cooler. Head, legs, everything. It still had spots.
