Devil Tines
« on: October 13, 2009, 07:52:58 PM »
Two weeks ago I filmed this bull with his cows and debated going after him but we couldn't get a solid look from the film. Last week he was killed and I was able to get some pics.
He has two kickers on one tine and one kicker on the other. Plus a little extra "dribbles" on his bases. The last one is a shed found in the same area that shows the same characteristics.

Great bull!  I love devil points on elk, especially Rosies.

oh that thing is friggin cool
No people will tamely surrender their Liberties, nor can any be easily subdued, when knowledge is diffused and Virtue is preserved. On the Contrary, when People are universally ignorant, and debauched in their Manners, they will sink under their own weight without the Aid of foreign Invaders.

Yep! That will do quite nicely on the wall. Excellent bull!

Makes you wonder if he had regressed any? :dunno:

Devil points/Devil dogs, Anyone know where that term came from. :dunno:

It is because they are typically short vertically growing tines, sort of like little devil horns.  They are very common on bulls in the Gila Nat'l Forest in New Mexico, but occur on elk all over the country.  Usually just one on each antler originating on the top of G1 at the base.

Never heard 'Devil Dogs' until now.

I am thinking so. The shooter wasn't sure, but it was their first branch bull.
