The antlers about 145 each. I haven't cybermeasured them, but guessing form other antlers that compare.

I'm pretty lucky to have her, she's a great hunter and from a great family of them, her grandfather was a guide and outfitter in the eagle caps of Oregon for like 40 years. you'd probably love to meet him, he's one of the hardcore oldtimers we all envy.

as for the sheds, one is 156 and change and the other is 158 and change. they're at a bad angle in the pic. They were found in the snake river country in Oregon which usually doesn't kick out too many great bulls.

Beat me to it Bone! I was going to say the same thing! I love that my Fiance (wife) loves to hun with me. Sometimes she is more eager than I am.

I need to get out and find some sheds. I have not gone after any in years. Only find them occasionaly when hunting. Those babies are nice!

not really I thought about 148 for each, but I just had to! ;)

I guessed on the fact they are about the size of ones I have sitting in my living room. I think the angle doesn't do well for the 2nds. They are probably bigger than they look.
