Title: Check out this shed I found
Post by: Tjv28 on December 02, 2015, 06:08:40 PM: Found this the day after thanksgiving in 335. Wish I would have taken a "as it lay" pic. Also wish I could've found the other side...

Post by: Pete112288 on December 02, 2015, 06:22:23 PM: Awesome. If the other side matched it even in the slightest then that would be a bull I would consider a bigger trophy for myself then a huge typical.

Post by: Sitka_Blacktail on December 02, 2015, 07:08:20 PM: Not sure if it applies here, but in Cordova, Alaska, they have a large portion of the local moose population that grows double main beams. This herd was transplanted and Fish and Game has studied this condition and found it to be genetic in nature. Since the herd was started with so few animals they think one of the original bulls had a genetic condition with his pedicles which is the bone the antlers grow attached to. Evidently when the moose that have this condition drop their antlers, part of the pedical actually breaks off instead of the antler just falling off. Then when the new antler grows, it causes a deformation which many times turns into a double main beam. Can create some real trophies.

Post by: daydreamn on December 02, 2015, 08:56:39 PM: Think you found a shed from the big bull killed off I-90 this year. The turned up eye guards, heavy third, split beam and squiggly kicker off the base. Looks like him???
Now if I could just figure out how to post some pictures to compare them. >:(
