Little antler repair.

[WNY Bowhunter]

I tried my hand at fixing up a set of sheds that I found a couple years ago that the squirrels had their way with. Really tough to match colors but I think they turned out pretty good. 

Before: the right side had several holes chewed into the G2 right below the split, the left side had the top half chewed to a thin sliver remaining and the beam had been worked over pretty good from the G3 to the tip. I didn't add any inches of antler, just basically filled in what the rodents had chewed off...

looks pretty damn good for the pictures. when doing euros (the extent of my taxidermy skills if that) i use Minwax Wood stain provincial. whatever you used looks good.
