The best thing i have found that works the best is Brown Boot polish. It usually works great, somtimes might come out a slight red color, I just add a couple coats and set them  in the the sun for a couple days and they seem to turn browner.

I would send Charlie (bucklucky) a pm and ask him.

Try minwax golden oak stain. Wipe on a light coat with a rag,  wipe off excess with dry rag. Apply an additional light coat as necessary. Worked fine for me in the past with whitetail.

I've also had good luck with brown shoe polish....

I use oil base antler stain, but any oil base stain will due if the color is right for you. Steel wool is the key!

Go to the tines up web site they have some awesome stuff. It comes in a kit with all you need and it does a ton of sheds, remember if you want to sell them down the road they are pretty much worthless.

Go buy some "DAM" off of ebay. (deer antler magic)

I used oil out of my diesel when i did the oil change. Looked pretty dark at first but lightend up out in the sun after a few days and looked great

I also use mud, AND that old minwax(gel form)golden oak was also the color I chose.   Coat the antlers with the old minwax and THEN smear mud all over them.  Let them dry, then steelwool off.   MOST natural look.  I HATE the look of stained antlers.   This process makes them look about as natural as it gets.   I have used this on hard white, not chalky ones.

DAM?  Thought it was WAM, Wild Antler Magic? Must be a copy or immitation.  I'd highly recommend WAM. It's basically a secret dirt mixture, that when brushed off, is reusable.

That's one big two point.
My buddy was after a two point like that this year that we've seen the prior two years and we ended up jumping him up this season but he jumped to a neighboring property we did not have permission for and sat there broadside at 75 yards with a 4 point. This deer was a old deer that was much bigger antlers and body than the 4. They both lived for another day. Never did get the to come back and he tried the rest of the season for him
I love those big twos

What about tru oil
Works for stocks and I think the color would be right
Might be a little expensive

The crayons for cabinet touch up work swell,  many shades to pick from and look amazing.  I just color them on bit by bit and fade it to the tips.  Looks

Anyone ever try Pine Tar? I have been meaning to but never find it in the store. I figure Pine Tar give antlers alot of there original color so may be worth a try.

Brown shoe polish works pretty good IMO.

Try a store centered around baseball, when I used to play in the all wood bat league we would tar up our bats and batting gloves. *censored* sure was sticky but it reminded me of the woods, gotta love that stuff
