I suspect this will be a common trend over the next decade and these big suckers increase in numbers while also expanding their range. However I can't wait to see a pic if this holds true...

Yes indeed....it'll have to beat this 185-incher arrowed by Tom Behunin in 2011.
I too would love to see the pic!

the thing with moose scores though is tine length doesn't matter, just number of points. spread, palm width/length, number of points and mass below palms is all it is if I remember correctly.

You're correct on scoring. A 185" shiras is a monster. The current any weapon B&C moose record in CO is in excess of 195".
If the moose is really 58" wide, that's a big step in the right direction.
In any case, congrats to the hunter on a giant moose!

The bull picture was posted by "Ermine" on bowsite with the following comment:
"I got this picture from Tommy Clum. His uncle arrowed this with a longbow. I hope no one gets upset that I shared. But too cool of an specimen not to share. They are thinking its above the current world record!"
Here is the pic.

And that bull was killed after you started this thread....
I put a tape on my buddys bull and it isn't even close to state record even though it is over 56Inches. After I saw the state record bull on here I Knew it wouldn't beat it. I asked if I could post it but he doesn't want it because he is doing an article. His bull scores around 167 which does make it all time for a bow.
I could be way off base, but the pic looks a bit like the Zirkel wilderness from maybe Indepedence Mountain. Although it looks like it was driven there to take the photo as the hunter is all cleaned up and in good clothes with no visible meat in the back of the vehicle....Nice guess though!!!lol

I took pic in my driveway. It's the Gore Range. Bull killed in South Park. Bobby is all cleaned up because he took a shower. Day after bull was killed. Officially scored at 194 Net even. 56 1/4 wide when shot 55 1/2 when scored. Smokes the current world record. That should answer most of the questions
