#1 Whole Deer average 16 sq. ft. We grade that they will not have any holes in the center of the hide and no blemishes. These are the best that we select for garments. #1 Suede hides an average of 10 sq. ft. We grade the same as the #1, but the Suede (rough) side is the cleaner side. #2 Whole Deer average 14 sq. ft. Graded for the grain (smooth side) but with holes in the center of the hide. Great for bag gloves. #3 Whole Deer average 10 sq. ft. Normally have good suede with holes, but the grain side has flaws like scars or drag marks.
