I just bought 4 mink pelts from Goodwill for $6. The bodies are about 15" long one is missing the tail. and all are missing the front legs. Any Ideas on what to do with them? I was thinking maybe a quiver or a whole lot of string silencers

a hand warmer, a muffler i think is what they call it...strapped around your waist. but i'm not sure you would need one in gorgia..?
Great find! You could use a strip from one to line the inside of a quiver to keep your arrows from ratteling around.....or if cut correctly you could make a great looking possibles bag.....

Tried that, did not make a difference, I thought that was a good idea too.
You can buy mink pelts from Goodwill???
Holy cow!
yes you can , i have 2 of them I bought years ago!!
yes you never know what you can find there. Ive found camo of all types, tree stands, wool shirts and sweaters, knives and archery gear. The one in Orlando had a 50's Kodiak special last week and 3 other vintage Bears.
Leave one as is and use it as predator bait. Tie it to a sapling about 2 feet off the ground. Tie fishing line to the sapling and run it under logs/branches to your stand/blind. Call and pull the line and watch the mink dance all over. Eyes will be off you!!
Put one in a bird launcher and tell the kids you finally caught the flying killer rat out of the garage. Let them come close to the laucher out of curosity and spring it into the air and watch em scream.
I like the idea of a possible bag!!

:biglaugh: That's a good one!
Looks like quiver material to me.
Would make great string silencers in addition to what has been suggested already.
Mink stole for the wife, which just happens to appear the same day a new bow is delivered?
I like the "killer rat". The other ideas are OK, but I'd go with the rat. BTW you can also buy mink stoles, and jackets at Goodwill and then turn them into a lifetime supply of string silencers for you and all the rest of us TG'ers, or quivers, or possible bags, or even herds of "killer rats".
