The smell, how does one get the stink out of the skull?

A properly done European mount will not stink. I believe it’s got to do with the degreaser that they use.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

If your skull has a smell, it's probably due to not getting all of the nasal tissue out of the sinuses.  Happens a lot when you "boil and pick" a skull.  Beetles and maceration don't really have that problem.  But, if you are trying to avoid bad smell... avoid maceration...  Did it once.

Once.
