[QUOTE="HARPERC, post: 840558, member: 30671"] We have a some good Shiras bulls here. Prior to the wolves showing up, I figured the next Boone and Crockett #1 would come from here. the 3 species break out as follows. Alaska- Yukon 224 minimum #1 261, Canadian minimum 195 #1 242, Shiras minimum 155 and #1 205. I won't say the pictures fake, but the angle its taken from gets the most out of it. I think 75" wide is the biggest reliable number I find, and not every track through the woods is full sized. Advantageous perspective or animal superimposed who knows. Riley, you've likely reviewed the youtube moose videos and have an idea how big moose get. To really appreciate it, there is no substitute for rounding a corner on an ATV, and finding the road blocked by bull in the rut. Even the cows look big from an ATV a few feet away. I've seen one about 220" hit the deck in the NWT, very impressive. Horseback riding the same trails they travel through the brush will also impress on you their size. I can tell you first hand they fill up the windshield of a Dodge pick up. At 60MPH we missed that one close enough to see he was as puckered as I was. Spring, no horns, and his rear end was as high the mirror tops. [/QUOTE]
