Thanks! Unfortunately I don't know anything about the history of Alaskan Roosevelt's so I can't answer your questions. I have always used the smaller of the two prongs provided in the Elk size Skull Hooker to hang my Roosevelt's but for this bull I had to use the larger Moose sized prong. Once they get a little age they are really enormous animals! That picture doesn't do justice to the body size of this bull unfortunately, two of us tried to move him into a better position but it wasn't happening.Nice bull! Thank you for sharing.
I love the dark mane and antlers. Are Alaskan Roosevelt's different from Oregon Roosevelt's? I've only seen this one from OR, so my observation is purely anecdotal.
Does the OR Roosevelt have longer, thinner beams while the AK's have shorter, thicker beams, but obese and bigger-bodied? Or is the OR Roosevelt just bigger all around? What else?
