and a club foot..............

I can't lie either, I was done hunting and headed home and it just stepped right out of the reeprod in front of me.  Wasn't too tough, got out of the pickup ran into the woods and shot him at about 75 yards.  He ran about 30 yards and died crossing a beaver pond and when I got up to him only his spike side was sticking out of the pond, that was a little scary.

The spike that i killed with the longest horns were about 26"

I saw a saber spike while I was hauling logs up on the 2500 above the Green river right after the mountain blew that was pushing 4 ft.

Saw another one close to it out on the prairie past Toledo.Actually got a shot at it and missed.That tells you how long ago that was.20 years or better.

Per the regulations I would say that is indeed a legal "spike".  Anyone disagree? :dunno:

Of course, by the time I "did the math" in my head on whether it was legal he would be running through the forest in the opposite direction. :rolleyes:

I think he is legal, but if you shot him you would have every game warden within 100 miles on top of you. It is touchy, and my depend on the game warden you talk to. For me, not sure if I would shoot it, but damn, I don't know.
