Bury Your Deer Skull - 11/03/17 09:15 PM
For anyone interested I made a video on Burying my deer skulls last season to make euro mounts. I don't have a huge pot to boil in and it worked great.

Some soil types may stain the skull permanently

It's just the angle of the sun, color didn't change. It was something I was concerned with.

5 gallon bucket of water for a month. Dont get horns wet. Pull out of bucket clean off left over debree. Spray with peroxide. Set in sunlight for a week. Spray and sun two more times. Air it out by hanging. Done. Bone white and no boiling BS. Best euros ever.

Just for the record boiling deer and hog heads is just plane nasty. Greasy stinky hot water when done. Takes alot handson time. Im good. Let the cold water bucket do the work.
