Jimmer Negamanee Report post Posted December 13, 2009 A good friend has a cabin up north near where we found this non-typical elk rack during a hunt several years ago. He stained the antlers (they were starting to get white where the sun hit them), and painted the skull and mounted it on a piece of weathered barn wood. I thought it came out great. It now graces his garage as a fitting reminder of a great time in the woods. Here are some pics: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He applied it liberally at the bases and more sparingly towards the tips. -Jimmer Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
