Whale tails

[Al@n]

Looking for good whale tail pictures. Will you show me yours? Here is mine

aren't whale tails the 5th and 6th points? or are we saying whale tails are the terminating branch of any antler?

My thoughts are that they are the ends of the main beam

It is the last split Old mass timber bull. Now I’m just old

That’s what I was looking to see . Great picture.

tails, baby.......

Personally, I'd never consider a sword and the main beam on a 5pt to be a whale tail, a hay fork sure. Then again, I am on the spectrum. I guess this guy qualifies...

What is that?

 

[Al@n]

That’s a serious set of tails . More than I could ever have imagined

I dunno…ever seen jumbo 5 in person?

Here’s a nice one ive been trying to pick up sheds off of for a few years now.

Does this qualify

I know it's hard to see. But if I zoom in it blurs out too much. This is the biggest elk I have seen with a tag in our pockets. 1.5 miles away through the spotter. We weren't able to get our hands on him but we got a unique bull that I will post below.







This is the one that got the bullet. A broken 7 that grew a 30" brow tine on the broken side. Couldn't pass him up with hopes of getting on the bull above.

I think of something different, must be a generational thing.


I heard its coming back tho.

5x6 central Utah, I have video of him next to what finished at about a 310” bull that he dwarfed.

This is what I had initially thought when I read the thread title... then the elk racks made more sense.

That's a stud, beautiful tails. I wouldn't call that a "typical" 5pt though, he's just missing his 3rds.
