stinky sheds???

[smitty]

Picked up a nice set of sheds today and they stink! Got some old rotten blood coming out of the pedistle, and the whole antler kinda has it's own funk to it. Never seen this before. Any suggestions? It's a nice set, part white and brown, obviously this years, I plan to stain them and hang them on the wall with some leather cord or something, but I gotta get the smell out of 'em first. I'd post pics but I don't know how from my email.

You got a Pic?

If they've been on the ground for anytime at all the Blood would be gone!

Wouldn't think the blood would stank by now either?

Post us a Pic!

Spray them down with scent killer, like you use to go hunting with.

I'd mix a little bleach and water in a pail and put the sheds in it just enough to cover the bases and leave them there for a day or two. That should kill about anything that's causing what you mentioned!

I think I read somewhere once that some cactus bucks shed (anyone else heard this) so maybe it had velvet on it and the stench is still there but no sign of velvet?

IDK just a guess cuz I have never heard of this.

I was hoping this bull was still alive. But sadly somebody got him on the muzzy hunt last year. Score over 360 they tell me. These sheds are right around 340, depending on what width you give him. I'm hoping somebody has a secret recipe to get the stink out.

sounds like they could just use a good old fashioned dousching, aye stevey boy?

 

[smitty]

Yea I know you've got a good douche recipe. huh clifton?

 

[Blegit]

My dad always told me, if you can smell'em stay away from em.

I have found a few sheds over the years that have had the same problem....even a few chalkers that started to bleed out and stink like a s.o.b.

Best thing I have found is to set them out in the sun and let them dry out....getting them wet will just cause it to bleed out more and stink more....once they are dry I agree with bucklover...spray them down with scent killer or something to mask the odor on the horn.
