    Just wondering what some of you guys do with your dead heads that you find? I have a few and want to do something with them but not sure yet?

    Most of mine are underneath sheds so that the sheds can rest on them and be more visible

    I give them to the landowner's daughter. She collects skulls.

    Sometimes I just cut them off the skull, below the burr and display them like sheds.

    One of my good friends is a taxidermist. I give him most of my dead heads. He uses the skulls or cuts off the antlers and uses them in the habitat on the pedestal, half mounts and full body mounts.

    I euro them if they are still in decent condition. If not then I just cut the antlers off and throw them on the pile.
