    Shot a couple of spikers/ stags in velvet approx dec 31st.
    Still in velvet and relatively hard ecxept for a fluid filled sac on a couple of timrs.
    Have drilled a hole in these to let blood/ fluid drain.
    Quite like the look of them.

    You can deep freeze velvet heads. Freeze it until you can get some stuff. Sit it in the freezer with the tips up so the soft blood doesn't seep.
