Hi guys.Well to say the ol mule deer is impresive is a bit of an understatement.Ever since i found this place (and played deer hunter season 05) i have wanted to either hunt a muley(on santa rosa/Saskatchewan) or at least obtain a rack.
I was dribling around the auction site and found these from washigton.

They are non typical i think.6x6 but i don't think you guys count under an inch as a point so the brows may not count.It's 5x5 if thats is the case,6inch non typical point on one horn.1 inch on the other.24inch wide.
It has a 1951 Washington state game dpt tag wich is just as impressive for vintage value.

Honestly.The bobbles and bits have blown me away.Now i know what all the fuss is about.

Wow.Now thats is the sort of thing i was after.
Although i've noticed that anything over 24inches that would rate as large has quite a few bidders(very expensiveat times).Theirs a 34 inch wide one i dream of being able to afford one day.


We hang rings off them down here aswell.Although our official scorers down here balance rings on flat bits of horn and score that as a point. If i was to hang a ring on the bases of these things the way Australians score deer i'd be looking at a 76 pointer.

Heres an example.
I can count 20 of what i'd call a point(just,it's realy 18).
The official scorer marked it down for 26 points.

Nice and tall,I like that....................I think I have bought six racks off E-Bay so far.............One of them I went to their house to pick it up,save on shipping.I got a bonus,they had some smaller racks there too,that I will buy next time I'm near their place..........
