I called two differnet fur dealers this morning to see what bobcats were bringing and one told me that and average cat would bring about $20 and the absolute best cat would bring a max of $40-$45.............I new prices would be down, but dang. I believe I will make some arrow quivers instead of selling them.
same here, i was looking into maybe this year/season actually take some yotes and cats and cashing them in this year....but looks like i will be waiting....
you just wrapping an old quiver or actually stitching up a pouch???? never thought about that for fur use.

Thats really down. I got $90 apiece for two on the carcass, and $100 for a skinned hide two years ago.
After the cat is skinned it'll just be dry tanned over a piece of PVC pipe and stitched up. Then once the process is complete, remove the pipe and it will hold its shape.
3 years ago we averaged $100 per cat, and we killed 11 that winter. That helps pay for gas and all that, but now that out of the question. High or low prices though, I do not see me slowing down on the calling set ups!

It will not be worth skinning anything but cats for the money. If you want a beaver coat or a mountain man hat it will be worth it.
