-- There are several ways to remove resin and tree sap from your bare hand(s) but the best way I have found is to take a big glob of smooth JIFF peanut butter and smear it on the sappy area, rub for about a minute and form a ball, and it will lift the sap off- next time I have to do this, I'm gonna bag that sappy ball and take it to a nearby beaver pond (one of my wood duck and teal early season hunting spots in Oct) and lob it onto the top of a beaver's abode. If you are kind to the beavers, the beavers will be kind to you--
