I will have a HuntWa hat sent to the winner, assuming I can still purchase one? Please use this thread for your entry, your first entry will be the one used so any posts with modifications will not be eligable. The information already given in the previous posts and pics is all you get. Sorry admins and mods are out, lets put a final date of midnight, June 26th. Sorry Pope, M-Ray and WF70 are out as well, I don't want anyone thinking it was rigged :chuckle:
I am going to add a HuntWa shirt in the pot as well, it will have the HuntWa Moose logo and the winner will pick which shirt on the moose page they would like.

LMAO, now thats funny chit right there Moss. Since I know that was a joke I won't count that as your official entry, unless you really want it :chuckle:
Post by: huntnphool on June 18, 2009, 03:46:32 PM
What is the "official" spread credit? I'm unfamiliar with scoring sheds.
Don't know, thats why I need one of our official scorers on this site to pipe up and let everyone know.

Wow, quite the seperation, 121-147
winging it on a moose's score is a tough one.
i don't know a 150 from a 180. most people think moose they think spread, not score i think.
a 50" bull means a lot more to me than a 150 bull.
:dunno:

I am trying to get a pic of a rodent eating on one while still on the animal.
Go lay one out with a tree stand over it, of course then the whole "baiting" thread will get going again ;)

I know I am not eligible but I gross it at 135 since the one paddle has a bit more length. I'd call it a 130 bull in the field. There must be some great squirrel control in that area. All my sheds are hammered the minute they hit the ground over there. I am trying to get a pic of a rodent eating on one while still on the animal. Nice finds.the 5 that we picked up that day a couple years ago don't have a chew mark on any of them after being on the ground for 5 months or so.

Heck, with the early snow and the amount we have got these past two years the rodents didn't get a chance at them. The 8 years prior to that we didn't get much snow.

Would keep them from bleaching too. I've noticed that moose bleach the fastest of all the bones. Probably just becasue of surface area. It doesn't take long even for freshies.

Matching the antlers with the skull plate should be a cinch to get the right angle and spread on those. Should be able to get a very accurate measurement. Have you had a chacne to match them up? I think someone asked that earlier in your other thread maybe.

In the original post I set the contest spread at 40" and told everyone to base their scores on that. Based on the gross score we need to subtract 12" from the gross, leaving 143 2/8. Based on this the winner of the contest is dp1175
Congrats dp1175, I will find out how best to handle this and send you a PM :brew: Thanks to everone else for playing along, and a big thank you to Bow4elk for donating his time and expertise.

I think my biggest flaw must have been in the spread. I never saw him alive obviously, but if he would have fit the genre of most bulls, would have been turned in moreinstead of flaring with those big swords. Most of the swords I have point mostly foward. The average distance between the 4 bulls antlers I have at my house is 6 inches, not that one inch matters, just stating that for future reference. Thats big OLD bulls to a young snapper, so that must be kind of average. Nice!

Man that's a gorgeous bull :tup:
Thats an understatement!!!
I think the P&Y and B&C scoring method really does a disservice to moose. I'm told that longer tines means younger moose but I prefer the look of the longer tines myself.
Post by: jackelope on June 28, 2009, 09:06:46 PM
phool, can you post a pic of the score sheet? it would be interesting to see...don't think i've ever seen one, plus i'd like to compare it to my sheds.
