I have about 10 lbs of black bear fat in my freezer that I don't know what to do with. Someone told me that it makes an excellent leather conditioner and waterproofer, but I don't know if thats true. Has anyone made anything from the fat? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- If you enjoyed reading about "What to do with bear fat?" here in TheHighRoad.org archive, you'll LOVE our community.

That is true. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MantisNovember 11, 2007, 05:59 PM How do you make it? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Harve CurryNovember 12, 2007, 10:15 AM I guess you could melt it on a stove, then pour it thru a siv or filter into a jar. Does anyone know if it makes good bullet lube ingredient?? BTT^ -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- BeatnikNovember 12, 2007, 03:24 PM I would probably either feed it to the birds in a suet feeder, or render it. I'm not sure what you'd call rendered bear fat - it's technically not tallow or lard. But I assume it would have the same range of applications - soap, candles, deep frying, or pretending you're in a fight club. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- stevereno1November 12, 2007, 03:36 PM feed it to the dawgs. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MantisNovember 12, 2007, 08:10 PM I'd hate to just throw it away. I won't be able to hunt black bears again for a while. With all of the hunters on this board, isn't there at least one person who made a useable product out of it? -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ScoupeNovember 12, 2007, 10:49 PM Found this older thread on another forum. http://www.gunandgame.com/forums/big-game-hunting/32880-multiple-uses-bear-fat.html -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- MantisNovember 12, 2007, 11:08 PM Thanks Scoupe -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- NRA4LIFENovember 15, 2007, 10:58 AM Render it by cooking in a pot and then sstrain it through a very fine strainer. Then use it like lard. Apparently it makes great biscuits. -------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 32winsplNovember 20, 2007, 02:18 AM Makes a very fine boot grease and a pretty good waterproofer, though after a day slogging in heavy snow, you may want to reapply before your next outing. There are surely better things made now, but what else are you gonna do with it? It's still one of those "old traditions" at our hunting camp |

First Date - who pays?
|
|
I went on a date last week, and suggested in a round about way that we go "dutch" on the movie we decided to see...she seemed a little surprised but then was adamant about paying for the movie tickets while I paid for the pop and popcorn. Who should pay on a first date? Man? Woman? or split?....oh yeah - there hasn't been a second date :( One of life's great debates/ If I've been asked out, I will offer to leave the tip. I think its only fair. But in my opinion if you actually ask someone out on a date, that kind of denotes your paying. Unless its a "hey we should hang out thing" then its up for debate, I guess. |

I've never been to Disneyland just WDW. And from growing up in Florida , I've been there dozens of times. Haven't been there now for about 20 years. Plan on taking my lil man for the first time next year. Gonna go with his Nana and Poppop(my parents). Not sure who's more excited.
