Legal spike?
« on: November 05, 2022, 02:14:37 PM »
What do you think? Is is this a legal bull in a non-true spike unit?

I don’t think so. I think there’s too much of a branch on the small side. Can’t tell if it’s broken or just didn’t grow very long, but looks like it would count for a point.

Depends if that little bump on the right antler is 1 inch or more.

That nub is as long as it's eye is across when you freeze the frame and compare them so you would be playing with fire shooting it in my opinion. It's probably an inch long so I would not shoot.

Nope, that is not a legal spike based on what I see.  That’s an easy pass.
