    I measured the inside of each side they are both exactly 35 inches in length.
    so I thought I would post a larger photo of the head.

    That is excellent Lostlegend. It is interesting that there is no brow tine on the left
    It takes 43 muscle's to frown and 17 to smile, but only 3 for proper trigger pull.
    What more do we need? If we are above ground and breathing the rest is up to us!
    Rule 1: Treat every firearm as loaded
    Rule 2: Always point firearms in a safe direction
    Rule 3: Load a firearm only when ready to fire
    Rule 4: Identify your target beyond all doubt
    Rule 5: Check your firing zone
    Rule 6: Store firearms and ammunition safely
    Rule 7: Avoid alcohol and drugs when handling firearms

    Rushy, there is about half an inch left of the brow tine, must have given the scrappy old bugger one hell of a head ache when he broke it off.

    Then he was a battler. Any sign of goring? I can see the result of antler scrapes on his left shoulder

    he had scars all over his body, there were a couple of fresh bruises on one of the back steaks. we were sure there was a bigger stag in the area. I found out after I got back from the block, that a 15 pointer had been shot up the valley from us in the next block.
