What’s the first skull! Those are very interesting antlers on the deer!
Never been to a camping world. I prefer Dick's to be honest.

Sounds like you have left WAY to much brains in it
Yup After boiling you have to pressure wash them and also blow out the brain cavity.......if not, you gonna have some stinkage going on for a good while....and maybe even some maggots.
High fence, low fence, no fence, it really doesn't matter as long as you're hunting!

I have switched to the Mountain Mike's skull mount kits. They cost about $30, never smell, never yellow, and you can have your buck on the wall within 30 minutes of getting back home after your hunt.

Take it to the man. $150 with table/wall plaque. He uses beetles.
Haven't had it in years but never spit any out. I am a sucker for happy endings and strapped cowboys.

power wash the inside of the skull.... after you are done bleaching it finish the skull with Mop n Glo. I do several a year for buddies and such. Take it to someone who pays attention to the little details with it.

Whoops! Forgot about Mop N Glow. Don’t go home without it. It really works well on those antelope horns.

Whoops! Forgot about Mop N Glow. Don’t go home without it. It really works well on those antelope horns. I do lots of euros, and a firm believer in Mop & Glow. Skin & de-flesh head without cutting into/scratching the skull/SIMMER in water with Arm & Hammer liquid laundry detergent and Dawn dish soap. I bought the smallest/lowest pressure pressure washer I could find specifically for this. Simmer & wash/pick until ALL debris is removed, careful with the nose. Break the little round nodule on the back of the skull to pick out the brains with a wire hanger & wash. Once clean, change water and simmer with 40% liquid peroxide (can also add paste to the water, it'll dissolve) & protect bases of the horns from bleaching. When nice & white, I let it dry good for a day or two and then add a generous coating of Mop & Glow to the skull only. Works great. I have about 10 more heads in my freezers I need to get started on soon lol.

What’s the first skull! Those are very interesting antlers on the deer! First is a javelina.
Sometimes it's hard being me! But somebody has to do it.
