Caribou antler question
I just returned from Quebec with two nice caribou and I need some advice on antler prep.
(FYI.....I've mounted approx 175 whitetail, elk, bear, etc...but never a caribou)
The first caribou I shot was in velvet and I'm planning on using Research to apply their repro velvet, unless there is a better option. My bow kill caribou was out of velvet but the antlers are are very bloody.
If I want to mount this caribou without velvet.....do I need to get the blood out of the antlers and then stain them???
