ive been reading on it myself...boiling it sounds messy and time consuming and can cause damage and color changes none of which i want...leaving them outside turns them white and i dont like white racks unless they are naturally white..next buck i get i am taking the whole skull(my buck the butcher cut out the antlers and i and having bad luck with mounting kits) so next buck i get in taking the hole head..skinning what i can...buying a couple hunder maggots and puting them in a bucket or tank or anything and throwing the head in there and let them eat it...then bleach it and it will be fine...atleast thats what im thinking and hoping...
