What is your definition of a Raghorn?
« on: December 05, 2009, 09:13:44 PM »
As I talk to clients that come into the studio I hear different uses of the term "Raghorn".
Just out of curiosity what defines a raghorn to you?

a rag horn to me is a small branch antler bull that is either imature or of poor genetics, makes no difference the point count :dunno:

Four points and below are raghorns, I think, except for spikes. 

Then...they're spikes.

I saw a 7x7 that an archery hunter killed on the eastside this year that I would consider a raghorn.  Yes it was that small.   :o

JDB nailed it.  I have a five point shed that I would shoot the animal in a heartbeat.  Man he was a brute.
