Meaty Boy

Leaving outside will be a long process. I would Drop it in a pot and simmer it for 4 hours or so. DONT BOIL! Lower the temp the better. Or else bones get brittle. Keep skull submerged and try to keep it suspended in the pot somehow so it's not resting on it's nose.antlers underwater don't matter they won't discolour. Pick off the meat as it become s loose. Keep your water clean change out after the bulk of the meats off. I always use needle nose pliers and yank as much out of the sinus as possible. Play with it take your time and it'll be all good. FYI The younger the animal the more brittle the bone. ^hope that made sense^

great info thanks...this will be the first antlers I didn't just hack off with a bit of skull to keep them together
