Title: Huge front fork
Post by: fishunt247 on February 01, 2009, 10:37:35 PM: Here is a shed I picked up today. It's last year's horn, but oh well, it was still brown on the underside. I found a little three point 20 yards away from it but no other side to speak of. Damn. Anyways, the front fork is huge. Too bad the back fork doesn't match. That would be a hell of a deer.

Mass Measurements: 4 5/8, 3 7/8, 4 3/8, 3 3/8
Eyeguard: 1 7/8
Point at the base below the eyeguard: 1 2/8
G2: 14 1/8
G3: 6 1/8
G4: 12 4/8
Main beam: 22 0/8

I think my math is right, but I'm an English major so who knows.
