Willowbrook wildlife group measures big horns

Proud hunters gathered Saturday in Willowbrook for some camaraderie and bragging as the local branch of the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation held its annual horn measuring day.

Proud hunters gathered Saturday in Willowbrook for some camaraderie and bragging as the local branch of the Saskatchewan Wildlife Federation held its annual horn measuring day.

Danny Mikkonen of Willowbrook and Riley Effert of Rhein were both kept busy carefully determining the scores of whitetail, mule deer, elk and moose antlers, as well as the skulls of bears.

The biggest of those measured could be up for Boone and Crockett Club, and/or Henry Kelsey Big Game recognition, the former a North American award, and the ladder within Saskatchewan.

The biggest and best of those measured will be recognized at a local awards night in the new year.
