Maybe it’s the whisky, but I’m confused!   :chuckle:

SCI doubles the paddle length and width and measures points instead of counting them.

From what I read, B & C didn’t want to penalize moose that rubbed points short, so they decided to just count them. SCI must have realized that measuring points focussed too much on time length so they doubled the paddle length and width.

Score aside, big is big and that moose is definitely big. Congratulations on a great trophy.

Fly Guide:

Late on this one.  You killed a GIANT.  I personally don't need to see a score card on this monster.  Very few of us will ever see a Washington bull close to that size.
Huge congrats on your bull. He is something else :drool:

I ate my tag in that unit last year. Congrats. Seen lots of bulls. Lots of snow. I had a similar bull on camera that was my #1 target. Took nearly the whole season off work and I used every bit of it. Once again congratulations.

Great bull what unit?
The only man who never makes a mistake, is the man who never does anything!!
The further one goes into the wilderness, the greater the attraction of its lonely freedom.

I know the owner of the logging outfit you’re talking about, those boys know that area like the back of their hand.  Congrats on an amazing bull

Are these the same guys that pulled this bull out with a skidder for the OP? Or at least that is the rumor I heard.
