Id planned on rigging up some flu flu type arrows so at least I could shoot some stumps and things if the Javies elude me.......is there a such thing as being over prepared

Yes, it is similar. I will add that at past events there are ranch hands there who will skin your jave for a small fee. I think it was about $10 or so. I let them do mine, fast and easy. If you want it done to save the hide for a full body mount I think the fee was $15.

I have a skull as well. I could take a picture with my phone and send it to someone if they would want to post it on this thread.

Also remember to stay away from the rear end side and be careful. That is were there stink gland is. You will know when you are near a javi because it will smell similar to a skunk. I have a few times that I smelled them before I seen them. It aides in the recovery though!

I've seen a lot of contradiction in my research some say to immediately take out the "musk" gland....others say it is not necessary because it comes off easily with the skin and the removal doesn't matter because the hair is covered in it any way...What IS the best way if I don't  have the ranch hands do it?

Skin, and try not to cut into the musk gland. If you do, wash or use another knife.
