Buy Rick Carter's video from WASCO.

Just how many boars have you mounted? And if you have, do your REALLY think you'd be industrious enough to type out all the required information along with the pictures required? RIGHT!!!! So when that happens, you direct the person asking for a tutorial to where he can get one. This is the TUTORIAL section and most people accept it is where one unilaterally POSTS a simple tutorial, not where one comes to make a personal request.

Shawn you need to take a class. Reading comprehension class. Read that LAST sentence. "ANY HELP" is the operative phrase here.

Shawn, the Rick Carter Vid is the best advice that could be given to anyone looking to learn about mounting one. Much better than any tutorial that could be put up here. So.....for anyone who would like to see EVERY step needed to do a boar.....spend the few bucks it would take to have that knowledge whenever you need it........No meds needed, just common sense.

rick carters video or the one John Rinehart had in his catalog if its still available. Both are excellent. watch the video several times FIRST, before doing anything.

then, if you are a beginner, order the supplies used in the video. one of the hardest steps is removing the gristle plate or "shield" from the hide. depending on the size of the boar, it can be thin to several inches thick, it will dull the best knife you have in a hurry, have several on hand to work with or use a fleshing beam and a fleshing knife like the Meyers 2 in one fleshing knife in the WASCO catalog.

good luck
