Those deer in the video have really pretty hides.

Putting your pikau/daybag inside the deer cavity is a good idea on the larger deer, especially in the bush or scrub (catching up) and also because your bag will fall to one side which can/does cause alot of frustration at times. I carry a plastic rubbish bag for either putting my pikau into to go inside the deer or if boning out to put meat into inside my pikau. Either way the gear and bag all stay cleaner.

Those deer were molting (?) so i don't think you could tan them without them loosing a lot of hair?
