Alligator Lottery?

[QUACKHEAD]

I really don't want too many tags, there aren't any buyers up here that I know of. There are a list of buyers on the wildlife and fisheries web site but the closest one to me is in Washington. A lttle over 2 hours away from my area. Skinning I think would take awhile, and I really don't want to spend all day skinning gators. I guess if I get more tags next year I'll make that run, but for now a little meat in the freezer will do just fine. Ray, back when you did this did you sell the whole thing or did you skin them out before selling the hide? Any tips in skinning other than take my time.
