I was wondering if anyone knows how to restore old antlers.I have one that is very white and has a long crack in it with some broken tines. I would like to see what it looks like without them.If you need to buy some epoxy stuff where would you get and how much $ is it. How do you re-color it?Any tips or directions would be greatly apperciated.

Shovel buck,
awsome website!!!!!
that shovel buck, did you shoot it?I really liked the 135 inch "shed". Where did you find that fallow deer at. I don't know much about them but i've seen a few hunts where guys were very happy with ones not near that size.

Youngbuck, I found the "shovelbuck" antlers while shed hunting a few years ago. The fallow deer was given to me by a friend that got it from a estate sale.
