Do it yourself whitetail euro/skull mount.
Step 1 : Skin the head and remove as much meat as possible.
Step 2 : Tape up the antlers to protect them from mice and other critters. Bury the head in the ground. Wait 2 or 3 months and dig up. Clean the skull with a garden hose.
Step 3 : Bleaching. Get some 20 to 40 volume cream peroxide from a beauty shop supply store. Or you may be able to get a beautician friend to get you some. The higher volume peroxide you use, the whiter the skull will be. Paint on the cream peroxide and let sit overnight. Do this until you get the desired "whiteness".
Step 4 : Protect the antlers again and spray the skull with a flat clear protective finish. That's it!

We know that there's lots of different ways to do a skull / euro mount. If you have tried another method and would like to share how it went, just tell us about it on the Braggin' Board. |
