See , this thread has done me some good, Ive gone up at least  :chuckle:

I went back and checked head widths on the big muleys I have done. Now these are measurements done off the head itself before they were caped. This is measured usind calipers and the widest head was at 6 1/4 at the upper brow.

That buck was eastern washington, by colville I think. That is a dead measurement too so might add 1/2 inch to that. Bout 6 3/4 on a heavy head I would say. I'll go back and look through some more recors too see what other measurements I have.

The widest part just above the eye. If I knew how to do that square thing on the computer I would use it to see waht the differance is between the and then move it over to the pinned ears on that 26 inch buck picture. That would get it pretty close so you know the width of the ear pinned which looks close to 6 3/4 by measuring my screan. ?

Excellent post. Should really help in field judging bucks in the future. I am a Professional Land Surveyor and I agree with others, thats what calculators and computers are for. I suck at math! :chuckle:

I'll get to it when I can on my laptop (meaning when I am not at work and can see the pic and the Mrs. isn't standing there with a stopwatch making sure the computer doesn't get more attention than she does squared.)
