Trophy measuring underway at Big Horn Show
HUNTING -- The Big Horn Outdoor Recreation Show doesn't open until tomorrow, but hunters already have been bringing their trophy antlers, horns and heads for measuring by official Boone and Crockett and Pope and Young scorers.
In addition to getting an official score, Big Horn Show trophies are judged and awarded in numerous categories. Several species and racks, in all shapes, sizes, and counts are considered. More than 300 mounts were on display at last year’s show.
A rumor is circulating that a world- record mount could debut at the show this year.
To enter a trophy for scoring, drive to the south entrance of the Fair and Expo Center and continue through the Yellow Gate to Bay 3 at the following times:
Today-Friday, 9 a.m.-8 p.m., and Saturday, 9 a.m.-noon.
