I just finished the first buck for the fall, funny enough it was from 2009. I was brought a buck that was shot on the opening weekend of deer season last year, and had set outside since that time. The hide had securely adhered itself to the skull, and had turned to rock solid leather. Also the horns had been bleached to an ash gray color, and began feeling chalky in texture. Fortunately for the buck owner I was able to remove all of the old hide, and re-color the horns to a very natural looking color. Check out the before-and-after pictures below and also the completed work on the right side of the screen named "Mr. O'brien 2009 Buck 2"
