Coues Sniper Report post Posted May 14, 2012 Mud? Never heard of using mud. I have a set that needs some color addd to it, could you explain your process? I like the result! What I did was make a mud hole in my backyard, cover the antlers in mud like the pic shows. Let them dry for a day or two. They weren't dark enough so I covered them in mud 3 different times and let them dry each time. Brushed off the mud with a stiff brush. Wiped down the antlers with a cloth and then rubbed Old English lemon oil on them. They have different Old English oils but I decided to try this one instead of a darker oil. It is fairly simple but it was almost a week long process letting them dry several times. Good luck! Thanks for that. I killed a neat buck last year that the horns kind of got stripped of their color. Long story. I've been waivering on whether to try that WAM or just do it the old fashioned way. But this has given me a new option. Thanks again. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
