LAST EDITED ON Feb-01-09 AT 01:45PM (MST)[p]WOW stryker, that is an awesome pronghorn.....got any numbers for him ?? Unfortunately B&C doesn't allow entry of pronghorn that are less than 15 degrees of horizontal....and that one looks close to that....an unfortunate rule for such a good one.
"
The inside spread is measured at a right
angle to the center line of the skull at the widest
point between the main beam of the horns.
This measurement is supplementary and not
included in the final score computation nor is
there any deduction for excessive spread. In order
to be eligible for entry, both horns, when
viewed from the front, should angle upward
approximately 15 degrees or more from a horizontal
plane projected across both horn bases.
This eliminates heads with horns that project
straight out or downward from inclusion in the
records. Pronghorn antelope with split skulls
are not eligible for entry into the records."
great post/pic, thanks for sharing
