Many years ago a friend harvested a 'spike' by this states rules, really big 6 on one side and a 4 foot spike on the other.  Doubt if he ever took a picture

I've seen a few of those come out of the Blues back in the 90's thru early 2000's.

bout 20 years ago a good buddy of mine shot a spike on opening day of the archery season.  Looked like a good shot, so he walked back to camp for breakfast.  "It's kind of a funny looking spike" he told us.  After breakfast we all went to go track his bull.  We found it a few yards from where he shot it.  It was easily the biggest bull elk any of us had ever seen.  A huge, ancient bull that had apparently regressed "back to a spike".  It had one antler that looked like a baseball bat bent in an L shape.  The other side was a single, long, curved spike over 3 feet long.  Somewhere I have a picture of PathfinderJR (who was about 7 or 8) standing next to the head and that antler is as long as he is tall.  If you saw it's tracks, you would honestly think they were left by a moose.  If I find the pics of it I'll come back on and post, but they're not on my work computer (I looked).
Before you criticize someone, you should walk a mile in their shoes.  That way, when you criticize them, you're a mile away and you have their shoes.
