    Let the skin cool down (ideally) before putting it in your pack. Helps to prevent hair slippage. If you are away hunting for more than a day or two take some salt for the skin (a 2 litre milk bottle full is a good amount - get bulk plain salt from bin inn etc) and spend time to remove as much flesh as possible and rub in salt, leave to soak moisture, scrap off, then repeat.

    If it's not a first round hit you need to practice more
