Yah nice thick sturdy bone, no doubt, thick heavy and like said, " Skookum! " the gross is good every inch added.
Problem is deductions from non-symetry , points and length differentials from one bank to the tother, brother.
Uneven Steven and out of whack a bit hey it's still hot sheet but the point lengths don't meet. No problem as a wall hanger, a hat rack but for measuring for trophy status it sucks. ok. That's all I was trying to spit out.
Jel .. Size don't matter as much as semytry, even in tine length, main beam length, inside outside spread, width and the number of points match for each side compliments the tother brother. Tines should be no less than nine to ten inches and better even longer ..
