Guess the score on these
« on: April 23, 2009, 08:16:22 AM »
Both of these sets were found a couple years ago. I am terrible about guessing scores and have always been curious where these would go. The first set were found lying side by side in a CRP field, my uncle who is a farmer found them. The second set I found a couple years ago lying side by side while out shed hunting for the first time (beginners luck)

Oh, I'd say he's....4

Hard to tell when he's smiling like that.  Need another angle...

I agree with most of the posts and would guess between 150 and 160 for each
