Tanning Methods.

[The Trinity Kid]

Hi y'all.  I've got a question for ya'. I'm attempting to make a buckskin shirt (need to shoot a buck for the skin first   ) and am wondering how y'all make the buckskin.  What are your favorite methods?  I kinda would like it darker than normal, but does that come by smoking it longer?   I'm a little new at this stuff.

smoking longer and the type of wood punk also has a factor in the color, and of course after its been smoked you can soak it in ground up black wal nut hulls
