Eganville (Ontario) Gun Show

[Rick Teal]

A few FROW measurers will be in Eganville at the gun show to measure racks and skulls.  Bring in your trophies, or just stop by to look at the ones other guys have brought in.  I understand that Ontario's No 5 moose rack will be there on display.

I'll be at the measuring table both days if anyone wants to stop by and say hello.

Here is the blurb that I grabbed off another board.

We were merrily going along in the Eganville Big Buck contest, having qualified 8 deer and one moose for the Ontario Record book, when one of the guys dropped a mount on my table and told me it was the last one of the day.   At that point the leading typicals were two excellent bucks scoring 148 5/8 and 148 3/8.

After I picked my eyeballs up off the table, I looked it over.  It was a comparatively narrow rack, with very long tines  and long/heavy beams.  The 5X5 had an inside spread of 15 1/8, the G2s were 12 6/8 and 15 (yes! 15) 3/8, G3s were 11 and 12 2/8, the shortest main beam was 24 1/8 and smallest circumference was 4 3/8.

He grossed 177 5/8 and netted 171 3/8.

The shooter was Rick Marshall, and it looks like he plans to enter it in both FROW and B&C.
