Probably a little hard for that guy to eat. Weird bull.

Cool.  That's one of those critters I'd put in the "Better off dead" category.  Your wife did a great service to the elk population.

That’s crazy looking. There are quite a few of these showing up on my cameras this year. Never really seen them before this year. 2020 I guess

Congrats to her. Please remember to share the euro once it is complete. Be interested to see the origin of the pedicle.
Kindly do not attempt to cloud the issue with too many facts.

Im just guessing here, but id say that bull broke his skull/antler base after hos spikes had completed growing and them the skull healed that way. In future years i would guess the antler to grow up instead of along the face.  :twocents:

For the record im not a scientist, but have noticed a fair amount of pictured of bulls with pedicles like that and antlers that grow up.

I watched a guy in Wyoming make one of those.  He shot at the spike, it staggered and one spike fell down on its face, shot it through the pedicel.
As long as we have the habitat, we can argue forever about who gets to kill what and when.  No habitat = no game.

Cool bull for sure. I saw one similar this year but the normal side was a spike and the tine that came down over its nose was a two point.
