Cool bull. This represents what I dont like about the moose scoring system. I like long tines and think they add a lot to the trophy but they are not given credit in the score.

Tine length does count on the SCI score.  After seeing this mount, I ordered a large Skull Hooker for my moose.  Nice work!
Nothing witty here.... move along.

Hyde, the skull hooker worked out great for him, you will need to cut into his skull in the back to make sure the hooker goes deep enough to hold you skull.

Thanks guys for the compliments and He scored about 160 B.C.

If it were my choice I would take the tines over big paddles also.  Duane

Thats an awesome looking rack,and mount.

Just curious,why the SCI measurement.No category for Boone and Crocket? Dont know much of anything about that sort of tuff.

Great bull and you did a really good job on it.  :tup:

He scored about 160 B&C and 401 SCI.  I believe the SCI was a better representation of the qualities that this bull represents :twocents:  Duane
