Did you or would you inject the horns with the alcohol too? My buck it still pretty bloody. His horns have barely hardened. They were still pliable before I put him in the freezer. I figured denatured alcohol was good for bucks who have started to harden and the alcohol would just remove any...
I bought some velvet cure from Mackenzie taxidermy on line. Like @wllm1313 said. I’ll probably have to cure the horns before anything else. I plan on using the whole bottle.. I don’t want this DIY to turn into DIWhythefuckdidifucthisup
That's where I was at but when they said $450 I was kind of shocked. I'm doing the right steps so far, he went into the freezer the day he was shot. I just don't know if I can justify that much for a euro.
I've also heard this but that the blood is still in the veins and can attract bugs after...
Took my velvet buck in to the taxi for a euro. Said 450 bucks... Seems a bit steep to me. Anyone out there have any velvet bucks euro'd and what was the price? I'm thinking I might go back and pick him up and attempt a DIY euro. Possibly with a sous vide so the steam doesn't damage the fuzz...
I’m in the same boat as @wllm1313. They’re going to tag along with me cause I said so. I don’t ever take them on anything crazy. Antelope hunts. And a few 1/2 mile walks from the car to look for Deer. My daughter (7) could probably care less when I tell her we’re going hunting as a family. But...
I knew about the condition but didn’t know the name. I took him to the game check and the bios assumed it was EHD until I showed them pictures of his empty coin purse. My moms chihuahua has a bigger scrot than this guy
Found this guy 3 days ago. Had him patterned out pretty well. Hiked in before light and watched him and 4 other bucks for about 2 hours this morning. Wasn’t really planning on filling my tag opening morning. Told myself if he gives me an easy opportunity I’ll take it. Didn’t want to chase him...
