Boil the head with in a day or two water blast it and you dont get the fat leach inthe bone, turning the skull off white no need to bleach .. thats if your wanting to euro mount it ..

I boiled mine up within a day, took some off but there was still a lot of brains and ich inside it. I put it in the washouse for another day and everything turned to leather as 'another day' turned out to be like four weeks....woops. It's still in a bucket soaking atm. I wish I had a waterblaster!!!

Yeah but I'm a noob remember it's kinda knarley/cut on an angle, I might do the wood saw trick and just mount in on a nice slab of tree meat. I'll have a new house in a couple of weekends, I'll need it sorted by then
