Deer hair selection for deer head flies- TIP

Recommended Posts

I was watching a Kelly Galloup video and he had a tip on selecting deer hair. So many of his patterns uses spun deer hair and he's tied thousands figure he ought to know. Deer harvested early the year is straight and doesn't make for good deer hair heads. You want to select deer hair that is harvested later and is wavy. Sure enough I went down to a local shop to buy some green deer hair. They had 5 packs on the rack but only one of them was the wavy.
