    Default I can't decide....so you do it for me
    I need your help. I found two complete racks this past spring that I have boiled down to the bone. I was planning on bleaching them out (Euro Style) and adding them to the decore of our house. After I finished cleaning them however, I don't know if thats what I want to do. I could also take them down and incorporate them into the hunting cabin we are buliding this summer. I don't know if I want to clean them all up like I have done for the bucks I've killed, or leave them in their "natural color" because that is more of how I found them.

    So what should I do?

    Here is what they look like now, and what they would look like if I bleached them out, minus the plaque.

    I think you leave them the way they are and put them in your cabin.
    They should look more natural that way.
