That's a GREAT story and a fine buck. How wonderful it must be to have four generations of hunters hitting those mtns. A great way to cap off your hunt. Congratulations and thanks for the story and pics! Amanda

Bleaching a boiled skull
CouesWhitetail replied to Slayer's topic in Miscellaneous Items related to Coues Deer
It's a buck I shot in Mexico a few years ago. I love it because of it's giant eyegaurds, main beams that almost touch, big g2s and it's great dark color, but surprisingly it only scores a little over a 100. It's got a narrow spread. You can read the full hunt story here: http://www.coueswhitetail.com/hunt_stories/akm_mex_07.htm Amanda -
Wow, that's just awesome!! Thanks for the excellent write-up and I certainly know that feeling of total exhaustion! Congratulations on making a perfect shot on a perfect buck Amanda

Bleaching a boiled skull
CouesWhitetail replied to Slayer's topic in Miscellaneous Items related to Coues Deer
You can do that bleaching product OR you can do something simpler by just buying some 3% peroxide in the brown bottles at the dollar store or grocery store. Once the skull is cleaned, just soak it overnight in the peroxide. It's much safer than bleach on a skull. Visit Taxidermy.net for more info on cleaning skulls. Great resource. One trick on the peroxide so you don't have to use so much is that once you empty a bottle, fill it with water and then place it in your soaking bucket to displace some peroxide so it covers your skull easier. Use as many bottles as you need so that your skull is completely covered but you don't have to use so much peroxide. You can use aluminum foil to protect the bases of the antlers so they don't fade during soaking. Amanda -
Thanks for the report on your gear!! That's really informative. I will second the Wilderness Athlete products, I used them on both my hunt in AZ and NM. Scott loved them as well. Great energy to help keep you going. And Scott liked the Jim White butt pad so much I gave him mine . Amanda

I went up last night to visit with some friends at a deer camp and saw a CouesWhitetail.com sticker on the front window of a cool-looking old dodge truck. I think someone told me it's Denton Cline's truck. Nice surprise to me to pull in there and see a sticker
