Summary

The 4-legged critters we chase are often adorned with impressive headgear…..Not like those back-in-the day tooth-straightening torture devises. We’re talking regal, powerful, impressive, elegant headgear made of bone or hair. Some fall off annually to grow back bigger and can be picked up like Easter-egg-like forest treasures. Some have annuli, grow bigger every year and stay with the animal until the day it dies. And the case of the North-American Pronghorn – commonly called just antelope –  kind of do both of those things, falling somewhere in the middle. Jimmy, Mark and Ryan M. sit down with a stack of euro mounts to chat through the unique characteristics of horns and antlers. No matter which camp they fall in, one thing is certain, they are just plant cool!

So we're gonna do horns versus antlers. That was the topic and this is kind of yet another one where I'm a little bit out of my element, but we're all going to chat to this. Now the idea of horns versus antlers comes from the many

0:45.4

different types of quarry that hunters hunt for from east to west and they don't

0:51.5

always have the same things or types of things on top of their head

0:55.2

despite the fact that they may seem to be very similar or at least visually.

1:00.5

So what is the difference?

1:03.8

The headgear gym does in fact vary depending on the species and whether I guess it's an ungulate

or ungulate, however you want to say it or a bovine Ryan was that is that would you say
