Stamping Deer Hide?

Recommended Posts

All, I'm rather new to this hobby, so I apologize if this question is rather naive.  I've been working with some basic kits and belt blanks that were all the standard veg-tanned leather.  I'm working on my first custom design where I'm going to make a partial dash cover for my truck.  Our family spends a lot of time hunting/fishing/etc and I thought about trying to use deer hide rather than the standard veg-tanned leather.  Does deer hide stamp well in a similar manner as veg-tanned?  How tough is it to work with?  

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

If you're talking about the soft suede type deer hide (what I usually see), it won't stamp.  I've never seen veg-tanned deer hide for stamping, but I suppose it could exist.

Sorry the deer Hyde is too soft, veg tanned leather or the veg tanneds that have stuff added to it like Latino and harness leathers.
