So..... maybe this is stupid, but when I was looking at the size of the sheds that Breaksrunner found in the bear thread, it got me to thinking. He mentioned both beams were 57", which is ridiculous.
Anyway, it got me to wondering what a bull would score, if he litereally had EVERYTHING. Main beams.... tine length.... mass... spread... etc.
So what I propose is this. Let's compile the best numbers off of bulls that Hunttalker's have taken. Doesn't matter if it was with a bow, gun, muzzleloader or what. But to count it must have been a fair chase bull taken by a registered hunt talk member, no sheds or dead heads. Between Greenhorn, Breaksrunner, Fiver, MHMT, Hornseeker, and a pile of other big bull slayers we have a pretty impressive pool of bulls to pull from.
So take a look at your old score sheets and post up some of your most impressive measurements. If you shot a bull with an unusulally wide spread, or really long brow tines, post the measurement and a pic of the bull.
In the interest of simplicity, we won't differentiate between right antler or left antler. We will just take the largest measurment we can find and mirror it for right and left antlers. We are looking for gross inches here....
So what we need is:
Widest inside spread of the main beams-
Longest main beam-
Longest G-1
Longest- G-2
Longest- G-3
Longest- G-4
Longest G-5
Longest- G-6
Longest G-7
Best H-1
Best H-2
Best H-3
Best H-4
We can let this thread run for a week or so and then I will try and total up the biggest measurments. How big of a bull do you think we can make? 450"??? Biggger?
