    Euros Gone Wild

    48 hours in 130*~ water with dawn and biz, decent skim of grease at the water. Didn't want to go past 48 hours, was getting nervous about the skull holding together. On the porch whitening with some hair peroxide and whitener per my other skulls. Worst case I bet I got rid of that smell. Best...

    The antlers and skull feel like a year old shed or dead head. You can see cracks in the antler where they’ve been exposed to too much weather. That’s my guess on the cracks in the pedicles. Got it at 120* for 24 hours to start. Cautiously optimistic that temp is low enough to not harm...

    I’m degreasing with a sous vide and some dawn detergent. Sprinkle of Biz bleach powder. I have done a mess of other heads with Biz bleach, and no damage to the skulls. Think 120* or so, hoping it will not be too much for the weakened bone.

    There were beetles stuck in the nasal canal. Sounds common. Awesome skull. I know I shouldn’t have paid. It’s important to me to take the high road and not get into a pissing match.

    Where to begin? Long story short: Wyoming Skullworks had my raghorn for 20 months. Said it was ready for pickup. This is what I picked up. Essentially a dirty deadhead. Antlers cracked and weathered, skull cracking and weathered, greasy, stinky, tooth loose, not whitened, flesh still on the...

    Anytime fishing is a good time but… For what it’s worth, most water we see is fast and muddy. I’m sure there’s guys that could do OK, I’m not one of them.

    Up for a few days. Checking some sights out in the park. Reading about some of the drama with the late season stuff. As much as I hate getting out of the house, I do enjoy playing tourist now and then. Most importantly… smashing cans of this stuff.

    Dermestid Elk

    Not cleaned well, not degreased well, I’ve never seen one so wanting to triple check before I jump to conclusions.

    Thank you. Confirmed my suspicions. Not even close just from the first one. 😩

    Dermestid Elk

    Could someone post some close-ups of a dermestid-cleaned skull? Thinking like the back of the skull (that nasty tendon connection point), vertebrae area, ears, etc. Got my 2022 bull back (long-story) and I’m trying to judge the quality of work. Deep down I know the answer. Just want to...

    Less than a week since I found this and I think it's going to fit really nice into this thread.

    Because Dad did!

    Kind of at a weird, frustrating point of my relationship with my dad. Try thinking about it and it kind of gets me irritated. Hoping it passes quickly and I can enjoy him for what he is/was vs what I wanted him to be. Anyways, not that anyone asked about that sh*t. - wool pants - large...
